Esports fans: virtual reality live streams are Sororitycoming.
SEE ALSO: Models strip naked for Augmented Reality fashion display in LondonThe ESL One New York Counter-Strike: Global Offensivetournament is going to be the first esports event live-streamed in VR on Oct. 1 and 2. Fans will be able to watch either from a viewpoint in the Barclays Center or from in-game viewpoints above the action with a first-person point-of-view hovering to the side.
Here's what the in-game stream will look like:
Viewers will be able to look around in full, 360-degree VR but won't be able to choose exactly where they're viewing from -- vantage points are selected by the broadcaster, similar to how broadcasters decide which player's viewpoint you are watching.
Sliver.tv will be broadcasting the event on any platform that supports VR, including iOS, Android, Oculus Rift, HTC Vive and Gear VR through each platform's Sliver.tv app or the Sliver.tv website.
Along with Sliver.tv, ESL has partnered with Wonderworld VR for the live CS:GOVR experience. Wonderworld VR is handling the video stream from the Barclays Center and Sliver.tv is doing the in-game stream. Both streams will be viewable through Sliver.tv.
Traditional sports events like NBA games have been live-streamed before using 360-degree VR cameras in stadiums, but esports have yet to receive that treatment. Sliver.tv has been streaming League of Legends, CS:GO and Dota 2highlights and replays in VR for months, but they have yet to stream anything live.
