Stern Pinball has released 10 of its catalog of tables for Stern Pinball Arcade for the Oculus Rift VR platform.
Both classic and modern Stern pinball tables will now be playable in virtual reality thanks to a collaboration between Stern and US game developer FarSight.
"The Oculus Rift version of Stern Pinball Arcade is the most technologically advanced virtual pinball simulation ever created," said Bobby King from FarSight Studios. “We've had a lot of fun bringing Stern's beloved titles to VR. We think both pinball fans and VR enthusiasts are going to really love this offering."
This is the first time that Stern Pinball tables are available digitally on a VR platform with positional tracking, adding precise detection of where the user is looking and interacting with the game.
"Virtual Reality is a natural extension of exposing and expanding the fun of pinball to the global entertainment audience," said Gary Stern, chairman and CEO at Stern. "Stern truly values our partnership for developing these new pinball platforms with Oculus and FarSight Studios."
The new Stern Pinball Arcade is available on Oculus Rift starting October 4 from the Oculus Rift app store. The Stern Pinball Arcade app is free to download with Mary Shelley's Frankenstein unlocked for unlimited play.
All pinball tables can be purchased with in-game currency or real money.
Available tables will include: Ghostbusters, Star Trek, Mustang, AC/DC, Last Action Hero, Phantom of the Opera, Starship Troopers, High Roller Casino, Ripley's Believe It Or Not, and Harley Davidson.
