PokerStars VR is a VR poker platform that aims to make the virtual experience more authentic, engaging, and accessible to consumers. Through the use of VR, PokerStars enables players to interact with a variety of different props, chat with other players in real time, and see their chips and cards through a digital lens.
Although the game is currently still in its closed beta-testing phase of development, it was debuted to attendees of the UK's EuroGamer Expo, who had a chance to experience it. If made available for public use, PokerStars VR will be the very first "free-to-play social poker game."
With in-game cameras to make live-streaming easier, and the option to for players to link their social handles, it also has the potential to expand players' connections.
