Ohio State fans looking to watch No. 3 Ohio State take on No. 14 Oklahoma via their 7" smartphone screen are in luck!
FOX Sports announced a new virtual reality app available to iPhone and Android users that can be used without "special equipment." (It definitely won't be janky and suck up your data plan.)
What does this first-of-its-kind app offer? Glad you asked in the form of a question. Here's what the release says:
- A robust, immersive VR experience which starts in a “Virtual Suite” in the stadium. Users can watch the game from the suite or choose among several on-field perspectives to get closer to the action.
- An in-stadium video board playing the live FOX Sports television broadcast, allowing users the opportunity to watch the synchronized telecast simultaneously with VR content.
- Users also have an opportunity to see full rosters, schedules and matchup stats from both teams on demand.
If this sounds enticing, the app is available "later this week" on iOS and Android via iTunes, Google Play, something called Oculus Store, and Samsung's Milk VR store, which again sounds made up.
Message and data rates will definitely apply.
