Google has been slowly building virtual reality-focused functionality into the YouTube app over the past year with support for 360-degree video formats, stereoscopic video, 3D audio and general Google Cardboard support.
Today, YouTube, the “world’s largest collection of VR videos,” teased a complete VR-centered design that will be coming to Daydream-enabled phones.
The company also announced in the blog post that they will be working with content partners like NBA, BuzzFeed and Tastemade to “explore new ways of storytelling in virtual environments that will provide valuable lessons about the way creators and viewers interact with VR video.”
