Apple Announces 3D MLB Games Coming to Vision Pro

Apple and MLB today released the September schedule for Apple TV's weekly Friday Night Baseball doubleheader. The games are included with an Apple TV subscription at no additional cost, and there is a new perk for Vision Pro users.


For the first time, Friday Night Baseball will be streamed live in the Apple Immersive format, allowing Vision Pro users to watch a 3D video feed recorded in 8K with a 180º field of view. The first game streamed in Apple Immersive will see the Boston Red Sox face the New York Yankees on Friday, August 28 at 7 p.m. Eastern Time.

Vision Pro users with an Apple TV subscription in Australia, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the U.K., and the U.S. can stream the games live in Apple Immersive directly through the Apple TV app. Full game replays and highlights will be available on demand in the Apple TV app for the Vision Pro.

"On August 28, viewers with Vision Pro will experience the iconic Red Sox vs. Yankees rivalry from unique camera angles that place viewers right in the game, immersed in the drama of each at-bat, the celebrations in the dugout after a big hit, close plays at the outfield wall, and more," said Apple, in a press release.

Apple said team lineups and stats will float on screen, and there will be a stadium view with Spatial Audio during breaks in the action.

Four out of seven of the Friday Night Baseball games in September will be streamed in Apple Immersive, with a full schedule provided in Apple's announcement.
