The game immerses you in “Fan Cave” with which you can unlock different game modes which you can customize with a full range of Star Wars merchandise that you got as you progress through career mode. This mode provides you with fifty challenges and also allows you to get averages (multipliers, time slower …) for Arcade mode. The game also features 360-degree mini games like Endor Speeder Bike Chase, Bespin’s Freezing Chamber Duel, and more.
Verdict: 8/10
Star Wars Pinball VR is sure to win over Star Wars and Pinball fans. Very interesting content, many challenges and ratings and above all, using the Star Wars universe here is more than just a tool. The music, goodies and animation from the movies will take you back to specific episodes of the saga. Obviously if you don’t like playing pinball or if the balls have an annoyingly tendency to go anywhere other than where you want them to, then go your way.
