More On: NBA 2KVR Experience

Tomorrow, you'll be able to shoot some hoops and be tutored by Indiana Pacer, Paul George as NBA 2KVR Experience will be released for the HTC Vive and PlayStation VR

There's a couple gameplay modes that's shown in the trailer. The traditional three-point contest supplements a speed and accuracy challenge as well as a buzzer beater countdown. 

Make sure you have some pretty high ceilings for this one as I can see people jumping up and swinging the controller, hitting objects above you should they be a tad bit low. 

$14.99 will net you the game and those with the Oculus Rift will also be able to get it soon. You guys just need the Touch to be released first.
