'War Remains' Immersive VR Exhibit Extended In Austin

AUSTIN, TX — War Remains — the virtual reality immersive installation enabling visitors to witness the horrors of World War I — has been extended until October, and with a discount to boot.

With the Fantastic Fest film festival running until Sept. 26, attendees in town for the event can also take advantage of a rare chance to see the installation at a discount. The 3D creation takes audiences into the trenches of the First World War using VR and a physical set.

In commemorating the film series, MWM Interactive is offering a special ticket discount to experience War Remains. Tickets to experience the installation in downtown Austin are available for a limited time here, for $20 (down from $40). Due to popular demand, showtimes have been extended through Oct. 19.
