What is VR eSports?

VR eSports is a form of competitive gaming that takes place in virtual reality. It involves players competing against each other in immersive environments using VR headsets, controllers, and sensors. VR eSports offers a unique experience that traditional gaming cannot match. Players can move, dodge, and interact with the virtual environment, creating a more engaging and challenging experience.

Players can compete against each other individually or as a team. Versus™️ is the perfect game for VR eSports, and its popularity has helped to drive the growth of the industry.

Building a Community & eSports Features 

VR eSports is not just about the games; it's also about building a community of players. We have created a platform that allows players to register and track their stats, see how they stack up against others, and compete for the top spot. This creates a sense of camaraderie and healthy competition that will keep players coming back.

The Future of VR eSports

We are excited to announce that we will be launching our first North American eSports league in December, sponsored by Telus, Panasonic, HTC, and the National Bank of Canada. With more arenas and players in each region, competitions will become more prestigious and attract bigger sponsors, leading to the professionalization of this new sport. In the near future, we will be introducing a yearly World VR eSports Championship, including participation from the best players of all major eSports teams.
