NFL Brings Virtual Reality Highlights To Windows Mixed Reality Headsets

The NFL is providing virtual reality postgame experiences for a second straight season beginning this week, and new to this year is the capability for fans to watch highlights using a Microsoft Windows Mixed Reality headset.

The first VR experience of the season will appear after NextVR works alongside NFL Films to position VR cameras at the Minnesota Vikings-Green Bay Packers game Sunday, and it’s available for those using Samsung Gear VR or Google Daydream headsets. For the four other games on the schedule for VR later in the season, fans will also be able to use Windows Mixed Reality headsets.
