If you have gifted yourself a Windows Mixed Reality headset this Christmas you may be wondering at this point what to do with it.

You could, however, do a lot worse than enjoy a Christmas screening of Top Gun in a VR cinema, courtesy of the BigScreen app and Paramount Home Media Distribution.

They will be showing the movie in VR for free for 24 hours, commencing at 6 pm EST on December 29th.

The movie will offer immersive sound and lighting and allow viewers to interact in the lobby.

“Bigscreen’s virtual reality platform offers a new way for fans to experience films in their homes,” said Bob Buchi, President Worldwide Home Media Distribution, Paramount Pictures.

“We’re excited to be a part of this experiment using cutting-edge technology to give fans a new entertainment option.”

The showing is available in the USA and all major VR platforms are supported, including  Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, all SteamVR-compatible headsets, and all Windows Mixed Reality headsets. Showtimes are available at bigscreenvr.com/topgun.

Bigscreen will be showing more movies in 2018, and their app can be found in the store here.
