Virtual Gridiron was the centerpiece of Verizon’s Super Bowl LI activation in Houston. It was the first virtual reality game that let two people play against each other head-to-head, in real-time. Gameplay was scripted and designed to be as authentic as possible, using actual NFL plays, former professional players and a real stadium.
