April 15 was a sad day for Paris as the citizens witnessed the historical Notre-Dame de Paris burn down in front of their eyes. Not long after the incident, many organisations pledged to donate some amount to reconstruct the Cathedral and Ubisoft was one of these. The game-makers pledged €500,000 (~Rs 4,15,96,836) along with a promise to recreate the monument in VR. Now, they released a 360-degree video on YouTube as a “teaser” to showcase what their VR experience might look like.
As you can see in the video above, the first scene shows the inside of the monument, the second one shows the structure from the outside and the third one is the best, as it takes you over the Cathedral inside a hot-air balloon. In all of the scenes, you can click and drag on the screen to experience a full 360-degree viewing angle and no VR headset is required for this.
