New VR experience lets you 'walk with dinosaurs'

Have you ever wanted to walk with dinosaurs? Well now you can.... sort of.

Not because of time travel but through virtual reality instead.

The new immersive VR experience takes players back to 150 million years ago, letting them walk among the huge and fearsome animals.

The team worked with dino experts to make sure the creatures and their surroundings looked as accurate as possible.

Michael Hampden, content and creative director for Sandbox VR said: "We really wanted to create like a love letter to dinosaurs and dinosaur fans where it's kind of like, you know, you actually get to be in the world with these creatures."

The experience was created in partnership with the Natural History Museum in London with dinosaur experts.

Dr Darren Naish was one of the palaeontologists involved. He said they did "everything they could" to make the animals look accurate.

"When you're talking about animals like dinosaurs, that involves getting the articulations of their bones in the right places, of putting their muscles in the right places, making sure their skin or feathers, whatever is on the outside, moves accurately.

"We had to get that right to make these animals look absolutely realistic."

The new immersive experience is available from 3 April.
