Since the movies are unplayable in 3D via the TV app without a Vision Pro headset, it is currently unclear what resolution and frame rate they play in. 3D titles seen in the Apple TV app include
Jurassic World Dominion,
Pacific Rim Uprising,
Shrek,
Trolls,
Warcraft,
Minions: The Rise of Gru,
Mortal Engines,
Everest,
Kung Fu Panda 3, and more.
Apple showcased a 3D version of Avatar: The Way of Water to demonstrate some of the entertainment capabilities of the Vision Pro headset when it was unveiled in June and touted the ability to play 2D, 3D, and "immersive" movies on the device, including in a virtual cinema. Apple is also expected to offer Apple TV+ content in a new, immersive 3D video format, including Monarch: Legacy of Monsters. The Vision Pro headset launches early next year.
