Rocket League in XR

Esports over traditional sports? I never thought I'd say it, but the RLCS on Vision Pro has me hooked!

I'll admit it - during the RLCS season, I find myself watching more Rocket League than traditional sports. There's something about esports that I didn't quite understand in the past, but that I find absolutely captivating now. I think it comes down to the fast-paced game play and the connection you make with the players by watching their personal youtube and streams.

Today, the RLCS World Championship started, and what better way to watch it than projecting it on the big screen with Mt. Hood in the background? It's actually an amazing experience, but I'm left wanting more.

We've all seen the concepts for immersive F1 and soccer broadcasts, but I believe there's a huge opportunity - and a much lower barrier to entry - for esports. With the RLCS broadcasts, I would love the following changes for watching the games on the Vision Pro:
