To promote its Dunkirk film, Warner Brothers collaborated with Google Zoo and the Google Chrome VR team to create 'Save Every Breath: The Dunkirk VR Experience.'
Dunkirk is a new movie that's set in 1940 and tells the story of the Allied forces that became trapped on the beaches of Dunkirk during World War II. As a companion piece to the movie, Save Every Breath was created as a WebVR Experience.
Just as war calls for people to come together and join forces, so does the immersive VR experience, which has a player invite a friend or play with another random person from around the world. Players dive into the story as Allied troops in enemy territory and will have to work with one another to see their survival.
