About LIV

Who We Are

The LIV team consists of ex-competitive gamers, Twitch streamers, game developers and nerds who tried early VR HMDs and became convinced that VR is the future of interactive entertainment and esports.

And yet when trying to broadcast our adventures in VR, we found that the spectator experience is broken. The tools we use for traditional game broadcasting don’t cut it.

In VR your body is the controller, and that is part of the magic. You’re fully immersed, and unless we can show the player interacting with their VR environment, the audience is missing out on that magic.

And that’s how we got started — we wanted to level up the VR spectator experience. Today we’re in full swing, and if you’re as passionate about this as we are, there’s room for you too.
