A heavily blurred steppe at dusk, with a faint figure and a red scarf under a warm, hazy sky.

Before you start

  • This is optional. It is a quiet immersive scene with slow, soft changes in light and very gentle movement. It may feel strange or unsettling. There is no sound and no sudden change, and nothing flashes.
  • Skip it, or ask a doctor first, if you are sensitive to flicker, have had seizures, or get dizzy or nauseous in VR or AR. Sit or stand somewhere safe and clear of objects.
  • To stop at any time, squeeze a controller, press Exit if one is shown, use your headset's own menu, or take the headset off. If you feel unwell, stop right away.
