Experience Marvel’s “What If…?” in immersive reality with the Vision Pro – Free for a limited time

Experience Marvel's "What If...?" on Apple Vision Pro for free, but only for a limited time. Dive into an interactive, story-driven adventure today.

Marvel fans, your time to live out your superhero fantasies has arrived. The interactive Apple Vision Pro app, “What If…?”—a collaboration between Marvel and ILM Immersive—is now available for free in Singapore, but only for a limited time. This mixed reality app allows you to step into the Marvel Universe and become part of a story-driven experience that spans various Marvel realities.

Step into the Marvel Universe

“What If…?” offers a unique, hour-long adventure closely tied to the “What If…?” series on Disney+. The series reimagines key events in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, presenting them in new and unexpected ways. This app takes that concept further by letting you actively participate in these alternative realities.

As you journey through the app, you’ll be called upon to advance the story by using your hands to interact with the Marvel Universe. The Apple Vision Pro’s advanced camera system captures your gestures, enabling you to wield Infinity Stones, cast spells, and perform other actions that drive the narrative forward. This isn’t just a passive viewing experience; you’re part of the story.

Free for a limited time

“What If…? An Immersive Story” is free on the App Store, but this offer won’t last forever. The duration of this free period remains determined, so if you own a Vision Pro, it’s wise to download the app sooner rather than later.

This release is more than just a treat for Marvel fans; it’s also an opportunity for Apple to showcase the impressive capabilities of the Vision Pro. The app demonstrates how the device can offer unique experiences beyond traditional media consumption, highlighting the potential of mixed reality in entertainment.

A win for Marvel and Apple

Marvel fans get to explore their favourite universe in an entirely new way, while Apple gets to show off the innovative technology of the Vision Pro. The collaboration between the two giants promises to deliver more exciting experiences in the future, further blending the lines between entertainment and technology.

So, if you’re a Marvel enthusiast and own an Apple Vision Pro, take advantage of this limited-time opportunity to dive deep into the Marvel Multiverse. Download “What If…? An Immersive Story” from the App Store now and see how you can shape the Marvel Universe with just a wave of your hand.
