    A mostly welcome ending to a mostly excellent series, then. Vader Immortal’s ambition has occasionally outstretched its capabilities, and, even for a two-hour adventure, its pacing hasn’t always been on point. But Episode III offers the best of the series’ combat, some of its most memorable high points and a relieving lack of its lowest. As far as the concluding part of Star Wars trilogies go, that’s a very good spot to be in.

    ILMxLAB did a great job of taking an existing expanded universe storyline and making it their own.

    As the previous episode, Vader Immortal Episode III last 25 minutes, dojo Jedi aside. A very short experience that hit the same weaknesses, although it leaves some interesting and bright moments like a saber fight with Vader... that last very little. Gameplay wise, it doesn't go the extra mile... but the Star Wars charm it's strong with it.

    The absence of truly unforgettable moments and a gameplay that does not always exploit as it should all its enormous potential unfortunately limit its full enjoyment. Nonetheless, if for no other reason than the indescribable thrill of being side by side with Darth Vader himself, this trilogy remains an adventure that shows the full immersive strength of Oculus Quest.

    Although Star Wars Vader Immortal - Episode III is meant to be an exciting conclusion to the series, with massive robot battles, escapes down cavernous tunnels, and duels to the death, it's hard to feel too excited when these experiences crash head-first into its paint-by-numbers locomotion scheme and general lack of player-to-character interaction, which effectively muffles what should have been a resounding and climactic finish. It still however serves up one of the most visually stunning VR experiences to date, although its flaws ultimately compound in the third episode, making it somewhere between good and great.

    Simplistic combat and a predictable story leave Vader Immortal: A Star Wars VR Series Episode 3 very little to work with.

    Good for what it is but I can't really recommend spending the price currently asked for it. I'd put the value more at $5.

    It was meh.
    Episode 3 was the worst out of them all. Your use of saber is limited to deflecting bullets. You do use the force powers but only
    It was meh.
    Episode 3 was the worst out of them all. Your use of saber is limited to deflecting bullets. You do use the force powers but only in one other location.
    The episode was too short. And the menu gameplay option for some kind of lightsaber showdown shows that one can actually throw the lightsaber. That wasn't there in the game.

    I found it boring to walk slowly behind characters and their long drawn out dialogues.

    Overall, I would recommend anyone to pass on episode 3. If you're interested in the story then you could find it out through a youtube video than spending money on this.
