VR has taken off in a big way this year, with the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive currently having a staggered release across the world and Playstation VR set to follow a little later this year.<\/p>\n

VREAL, a streaming service specifically designed to take advantage of VR devices, hopes to take advantage of this popularity.<\/p>\n

While there is an immediate comparison to Twitch.tv, VREAL is\u00a0notably different,\u00a0as it will allow you not only watch a streamer, but also occupy the same place as them in-game.<\/p>\n

If the streamer allows it, you will also be able to be seen and heard within the game world, allowing for an entirely new way for streamers to interact with viewers.<\/p>\n

VREAL plans to have a beta some time in Winter, so if you have access to a VR device you can sign up here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
