The Game
Chase VR Cricket is a next-generation virtual reality game developed as a solo project by Dr Lionel Jayaraj as part of his PhD in Immersive Technology. Designed for PC VR, it offers a hyper-realistic cricket simulation with fully immersive gameplay and smart player interaction mechanics.
​
But what sets it apart?
It’s the first cricket game ever to feature Second Screen Multiplayer – letting another player influence or assist the match via a tablet, smartphone, or PC, while the main player is fully immersed in VR.
