About
Aeronaut is a single player action game. It was developed by Viacom and was released on September 12, 2019. It received very positive reviews from players.
"Aeronaut" is one of the first music experiences to feature a hologram created with Microsoft Mixed Reality Capture. This technology was used to capture Billy Corgan's performance in volumetric video. In this experience, Viacom and Isobar explored how to better connect fans to artists by allowing them to interact with and experience music in an entirely new way.





- High-quality visuals and immersive VR environment with detailed graphics and effects.
- Unique and innovative VR music video experience featuring interactive elements and volumetric capture of the artist.
- Free to download and offers a novel artistic approach combining music and virtual reality.
- Not actually a game; lacks gameplay loops, meaningful interaction, and traditional game structure.
- Limited interaction and no locomotion, which may reduce immersion or exploration for some users.
- Minimal content length and absence of deep narrative or extensive missions might limit replay value.

“It's really a great idea and the song is very catchy.”
“Instead of being a game, Aeronaut is a software application that shows a music video from Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins).”
