5 Super Bowl VR Apps To Get You Primed For The Big Game

It’s nearly game day! The Super Bowl 2019 is nearly upon us and the hot dogs are cooking. But if you’re hosting a party this year, what better way to get people hyped than with a VR headset? So here are the best Super Bowl VR experiences to get you ready for the big match.

VR Sports Challenge (Rift)

Want a slice of the blockbuster football experience? VR Sports Challenge gives you a taste of the all-star life. This snapshot of the big leagues lets you execute major plays, including game-winning throws and catches. Plus there’s a heck of a lot more than just football here; also look out for baseball, basketball and hockey games.

2MD: VR Football (Rift, Vive, Windows VR, PSVR)

If you’re looking for something that offers a more robust game then 2MD VR Football is your best bet. This still isn’t an entire football match in VR but it’s got more sport-specific features. You get to simulate the last two minutes of a game, calling the shots. On top of that mode, there’s also minigames to play and trophies to earn.

ESPN (Go)

Okay, actually playing football might be a little too exhausting. How about an immersive viewing experience, then? ESPN’s mobile VR app offers live coverage and highlights of a range of games. Take note that we’re not sure if the app will be showing the actual Super Bowl in VR this year, but it’s a good companion for any sports fan all the same.

Super Bowl Experience (Location-Based)

If you’re in Atlanta for the big game this year, you can get a taste of the Super Bowl experience. Head on over to the Georgia World Congress Center for a VR app that has you throwing a real ball. The experience seems to use a Rift with a different tracking system attached to it. Sadly there aren’t any real players to tackle you. Maybe that’s a good thing, though.

Google Earth (Rift, Vive)

Or, hey, maybe you’re not in town this weekend. But you can get the experience of being there with Google Earth. Take a trip to see the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in all its glory and switch over to Street View for a real life look. Just remember to come back in time for the real game.
