Meta Quest is launching the new Xtadium platform, which is a virtual reality app that is made with the help of cloud-based tech company VBVR. This allows fans to get an impressive 180-degree perspective of their favorite sporting events. It also has up to 8K viewing quality.
It offers the choice between 8 camera angles and from the promotional video, it seems like it is able to overlay different angles and access statistic updates. Additional features include the option of inviting friends into the metaverse to join accounts and access the same technology. This way, friends are able to place themselves next to users in the exact same area and virtually enjoy various sports games together.
