March is full of Power Rangers stuff including Qualcomm's VR Experience out March 8th, a Power Rangers mobile fighting game, and a CatsAndVR PR giveaway.
The much anticipated Power Rangers movie reboot hits theaters on March 24th and there are 2 VR experiences and one cool looking mobile brawler to get you ready for it.
First up launching sometime on March 8th you will get a chance to immerse yourself in the world of Power Rangers with Qualcomm's experience created specifically for mobile VR, the 2 minute Power Rangers: Zords Rising.
I had a chance to check it out at GDC and to be honest it is really short but really damn good looking for mobile VR. This marks production company Reel FX VR's third collaboration with Lionsgate, following the partnerships for Insurgent: Divergent Series VR and The Hunger Games VR. Legit I waited in line to get Power Rangers swag at GDC and really enjoyed the short but FREE experience. I am sure it will only tease you for what I am hoping will be an awesome movie.
Next up Lionsgate will be holding a virtual reality Q&A session with the cast on March 9 at 1:30 PM PT to promote the new Power Rangers. This session will take place in the High Fidelity VR platform and will require either an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive. There is only room for a total of 100 HTC Vive and Oculus Rift users wil who in turn be able to join the live Q&A virtually. A few VR attendees will be able to hang out and play VR games with their favorite Ranger. For non VR fans the event will be live streamed on Youtube.

We also will be getting a pretty rad mobile fighting game launching the week of the movie release. Seriously the old Power Rangers fighting games for the Genesis and Game Gear were some of my favs growing up. I have not been this excited for a mobile game in a while.
Lastly the biggest Zord of them all, Power Rangers will be coming to theaters on March 24th.
In celebration I am giving away a classic Megazord T-Shirt & Pink Ranger Funko Pop to those who follow @CatsAndVR on Twitter and share this post. Make sure to tweet @CatsAndVR when you share.
