Google has revealed a Daydream-exclusive VR experience based around the forthcoming Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them film.
Google says it worked with Warner Brothers to create the app based upon the J.K. Rowling-penned story, out next month.
It enables Daydreamers to become wizards via the new Daydream View headset. The new remote will act as a wand to levitate objects and cast spells.
The experience, which will be available in November when the headset and remote goes on sale, was announced at the MadeByGoogle event, where the company unveiled the Pixel handsets – the first to be compatible with Daydream.
