As we continue our ongoing look at the intersection of casinos and Virtual Reality (VR), we ask the question, \u201cCould physically walking around sprawling VR casinos be the future of online gambling?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

We are a privileged generation, as we can look back throughout the evolution of gaming and make reasonably firm predictions for how it could progress in the future. For instance, we know that the advent of the Internet brought about the online slot game, and that almost as soon as mobile devices shot to popularity the diverse reel-spinning game quickly made the transition like with the icecasino no deposit bonus<\/a>. For those reasons, one would assume that slots could soon switch to a virtual reality format<\/a>. But how will slots and other classic casino games look in VR, if these prophecies turn out to be true?<\/p>\n

Gamers who attended the ICE Totally Gaming expo in 2016 managed to catch a glimpse<\/a> of how developers are scrambling to create casino games for VR audiences and what they will look like. Microgaming, a famous software pioneer for online operators, has been the first to dip into the market with their VR Roulette game. This was available for trial at ICE, where a number of event-goers hailed the immersive experience. With a massive online casino power like Microgaming on board, it is expected that other companies will also seek to create software for VR.<\/p>\n
