We had the chance to try an early demo build of the game at GDC in March, and now you can try it out for yourself – that is if you own a Vive.

According to Bredow, Trials on Tatooine serves as a benchmark for the team to see if combining a story driven experience with the level of interactivity that VR enables users is a successful match. Specifically, Trials on Tatooine.

If you’re looking for other games to justify that Vive, here are the best VR games on PC. How successful Trials on Tatooine will be will likely impact ILMxLAB’s first stab at a full-length VR game, but early impressions have been good for the virtual reality experience. Some time between then and now, somebody at ILMxLAB changed their mind and decided to make the demo a free download on Steam for Vive owners, available today.

If you happen to have a pair of cards in SLI, the game’s blurb says “will automatically render on two GPU’s if available”.

This weekend, Star Wars fans from across the globe descended upon London to take part in the Celebration event. During the ILMxLAB panel discussion, the company revealed that it was working with Hollywood screenwriter, David Goyer (famous for penning the scripts for Christopher Nolan’s Batman movies).
