The NBA is going all in on VR. Last season, the league streamed weekly live games in VR, and now it’s making every game available in VR for League Pass subscribers.
Engadget writes, “With the NextVR app, you’ll not only be able to watch 27 live games on your Samsung Gear VR or Google Daydream headset, but you’ll also get access to something called the Screening Room. Here you’ll be able to pick and choose from every League Pass game in virtual reality.”
NBA’s Leauge Pass subscription costs $200, but users can purchase individual games for $7. Schedules for live VR games can be found on the league’s website.
Keep in mind, you’ll obviously need a virtual reality headset to watch these games in VR. The Samsung Gear VR and Google Daydream are both great options if you’re on a budget.
