Sky VR Studio has teamed up with everybody's favorite naturalist narrator, Sir David Attenborough, to release 'Hold the World.' The upcoming VR experience will feature Sir Attenborough guiding users through a virtual tour of London's Natural History Museum, giving them the chance to virtually manipulate many of the items on display there while Sir Attenborough's silky rasp gives background information.
Many consumers will be familiar with Sir Attenborough thanks to his work on BBC's wildly successful series 'Planet Earth.' The national broadcaster recently released the second season of the show after ten years of development, so the famed naturalist's name is back in people's minds.
It has neither been confirmed nor denied that the announcement of a Sir David Attenborough program was intentionally scheduled for April 20th.
