RIA Novosti was the first media outlet in Russia to routinely work in immersive formats. Today we release up to 10 projects per year using virtual and augmented reality technologies.
Using AR and VR encourages the audience to actively engage with content, gives users information as part of an interactive experience, and creates an emotional connection, immersing them in the story. Starting from 2021, some of our projects have become available in the big VR format on Steam.
RIA Novosti media projects in augmented and virtual reality have won Russian and international awards, including the Russian Culture Online Prize, Digital Communication Awards, Eventiada IPRA GoldenWorld Awards and others.
