The Spooktacular Express is back for its third annual spooooopy voyage! Come in and find your seat, get your ticket punched, and then don the complimentary VR headset that will be waiting for you on your seat. Your in-ride entertainment during this first leg of the journey will be 1 of 3 FULLY IMMERSIVE spooky virtual reality experiences. Survive a harrowing climb up a forbidden mountain in Ice Climber, where your next meal may be your last. Experience the horrors of war first-hand in Call of Duty, a historically-accurate retrospective of life on the front lines of World War II. Or, you can trek across the cartoony plains collecting floating puzzle pieces representing your fragmented soul trapped in a low-poly purgatory with Banjo-Kazooie.

Get ready to get Fully Immersed. If there is one thing that we love to do here at DT! HQ, it's reboot old shit that nobody asked for. And so it stands to reason that VR games were bound to eventually get that treatment. Excited to get an 1800s-era poop disease in Oregon Trail VR? Or how about experiencing a lifelike barrel roll in Starfox 64 3? No? Well then maybe reading low-poly books in a new Myst game? Driving a mech in a first-person Armored Core sequel? OK yeah, that last one actually sounds pretty rad.
