Fan watches Bundesliga game on Apple Vision Pro and the footage is incredible

There could soon be a new way for fans to watch football.

A fan watched a Bundesliga match using Apple Vision Pro, and the footage that emerged afterwards is interesting to say the least.

Football has changed and evolved massively over time, but technology seems to be speeding that process up more and more every year.

Technology has revolutionised how matches are officiated, with goal-line technology and Video Assistant Referees (VAR) now having a key impact on games.

How fans consume the game is changing too; millions of people still turn up to stadiums every week to watch their team, but millions more are finding new ways to immerse themselves in the beautiful game.

Now, incredible footage has emerged of one fan using some new tech to to watch a game with a friend.

The video - posted on X by @Immersiv_ - shows a fan watching a Bundesliga match with his mate. The twist is that they aren't actually in the same room.

The pair were using Apple Vision Pro to watch Fortuna Dusseldorf's 2-0 win against Hamburg in the 2. Bundesliga at the beginning of March.

The kit - essentially a virtual reality headset, although Apple have not marketed it as such - is a spatial computer than blends digital content and apps into the user's physical space, allowing them to navigate with their eyes, hands and voice.

The video shows the user celebrating Dusseldorf's opening goal with his friend stood next to him, with the pair high-fiving (without their hands actually touching, of course).

As well as the match, the Apple Vision Pro presents the fans with a Football Manager-style overhead tactical view of the match on a table, as well as live stats and in-game analysis on each player.

Apple Vision Pro launched in the US earlier this year, but it has yet to be released worldwide.

While nothing will ever beat actually attending a match in the flesh, this new technology could become the next best thing.
