The Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare – Jackal Assault VR Experience is a PlayStation VR mission that immerses you in the cockpit of a Jackal, the personal, multi-role fighter jet in the game. Take the controls and enjoy Call of Duty for the first time in virtual reality.

We’re also excited to announce that the Jackal Assault VR Experience will be available to all PS4 owners, not just for players who have purchased the game, as a free, added bonus on November 4. Just head to the PlayStation VR section of the PlayStation Store, and after selecting Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare – Jackal Assault VR Experience, follow the prompts to download and install. Please note that you will need PlayStation VR, sold separately, to play.

Awesome! Cool that it is it's own thing!

Sweet man, always welcoming more content for my PSVR.

 

[nampad]

I think they might have made a mistake and meant all PS4 IW buyers but if not, this would be a pretty cool move by Activision.

 

[Matush]

EA, take note. Do the same with Battlefront's X-Wing mission.

Nah, it's only on PS4. It specifically mentions not just for those who have purchased the game.

I mean, they outright said "not just for players who have purchased the game" so I think that's what they meant.
Pretty cool of them.

 

[Marty Chinn]

Pre-order cancelled!

I thought it was free?

"Those who bought PlayStation VR headsets, chances are a lot of you are looking forward to the upcoming Star Wars Battlefront VR content, Rogue One: X-Wing VR Mission. While you do need Star Wars Battlefront to be able to play the VR experience (and of course, a PSVR), gamers will be able to play it for free come launch."

[Parakeetman]

Finally I can put this expensive ass paperweight to use again!

 

[0racle]

When is the review embargo?

 

[Baalzebup]

That is mighty cool of ya, Activision.

You need Battlefront to be able to play it, here you don't, hence the difference.

Pretty sure they announced that the X-Wing VR mission was going to be free from the very beginning.

See above.

 

[valkillmore]

All devs should do this. You should be able to walk around some room in GTA V in VR too

Free to only people who bought the game though.

 

[Gemeanie]

Of all publishers Activision was the last one I'd imagine getting free stuff from.

Pretty nice gesture for us who aren't planning to buy the game

 

[BigTnaples]

Fuck yes. Can't wait. Just got done playing some Rigs and Thumper. Sooo good.




I assume since IW/BO/MW all take advantage of PS4 Pro that this will as well?

 

[border]

Sounds great to me, even though it's probably only a 10-20 minute game and not that different from the EVE Valkyrie demo.

Savvy game buyers can probably find Star Wars Battlefront for less than $10, if you just want to try out the X-Wing VR mission.

 

[Soi-Fong]

Can't argue against the sweet price of free! Can't wait to try this out on the PS4 Pro!!!!!

 

[ronaldthump]

god. so good. oooo

can't wait for this.

 

[suddenlyissoon]

Now I want to swap my IW to Xbox since this is free. So much easier to play with Xbox Elite controller

 

[Falchion]

Nice, I'll grab this just in case I get PSVR one day.

 

[Jackpot]

Playthrough

Graphics look pared down from the main game.

 

[Z3M0G]

Graphics look pared down from the main game.

Should be expected. No need to point that out.

 

[cakely]

What? Free, no IW purchase necessary?

Sure, absolutely, let's do this.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Should be expected. No need to point that out.

Trust me, that will probably be blown up by some posters.

 

[FonkyByNature]

Downloading this tonight !!!

 

[Jackpot]

Should be expected. No need to point that out.

There'll be some who think they use the same assets.

 

[cakely]

It's up for download in NA. 1.24GB. Downloading now.

Same here as the VR experience was my deciding factor for platform.

 

[lt519]

I know what I'm doing tonight!

 

[The Lamonster]

EA, take note. Do the same with Battlefront's X-Wing mission.

I'd rather have the X-Wing mission be longer than this Jackal Assault, which just makes me appreciate EVE: Valkyrie more.

 

[Z3M0G]

It's 5 minutes long. You get a counter of how many kills you got during the mission.

I think it would have been quite easy to add more re-play-ability to it than that.

 

[N30RYU]

In the spanish store it says is for CoDIW players tho even if it's free for all.

"Asalto de Jackal, la primera experiencia con PlayStation®VR de Call of Duty®, estará disponible para los jugadores de Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare en PlayStation®4 de forma gratuita."

 

[cakely]

Just tried it.

It looks great, and it plays decently. It's essentially a single EVE dogfight with the addition of rez-style head-tracked, locking missiles.

It's easy but fun. AFAICT you can't actually get shot down, or at least there didn't seem to be any danger of it.

Also, the start button does nothing .. there are no options. To invert flight controls hit the square button.

I'll probably use it to demo my headset.

 

[NeoRausch]

So ummm....

How do you pass the EULA Screen? 😂😂😂

I can't press X, just O. I it up online and I'm not the only one with this problem.

Some offered a solution but none of those worked.

Anybody else?

 

[Kurdel]

I managed to play this, holy shit was blah.

Almost as short as the Eve Valkyrie demo, and looks worse, glad it was free.
