The Bundesliga is launching an alternate broadcast for Der Klassiker that recreates the Bayern Munich versus Borussia Dortmund match in a Playmobil-inspired virtual universe. Real-time match tracking data will replicate every pass, tackle, sprint, and goal as the actual match unfolds on the pitch, turning the players and ball into Playmobil figures.
The project marks the first time a professional soccer league presents a full live match on this scale within a virtual entertainment environment. The alternate broadcast will also incorporate interactive features, mini-games, and a jet-pack camera perspective designed to engage alternative audiences.
