Infinity Football XR Named ‘Honoree’ in CES Innovation Awards®
Blockchain Sports XR is thrilled to announce that its groundbreaking Infinity Football XR product has been named an ‘Honoree’ in the CES Innovation Awards® in the prestigious “XR Technologies and Accessories” category in 2025. This award recognizes Infinity Football XR’s game-changing potential in sports and gaming, introducing immersive extended reality (XR) technology to redefine how football is played, trained, and experienced worldwide.
Infinity Football XR, developed by Blockchain Sports XR, is the world’s first all-in-one XR sports experience. The simulator is designed to bridge real-world football fields and indoor playgrounds with virtual pitches in an unprecedented way. The technology will enable players in different physical locations to compete in a shared virtual environment, where each move, pass, and goal is felt and experienced as though they were on the same field.
Created under the Blockchain Sports Ecosystem, Infinity Football XR includes the Infinity Suit, a cutting-edge haptic suit with shin guards, powered cleats, and gloves for total player engagement. Additionally, the system will create a lifelike virtual play experience with an advanced AI-based motion capture platform and a VR headset designed for high-fidelity VR gameplay.
The Infinity Football XR product will be integrated into the high-tech sports cluster in Saudi Arabia. Besides, the product’s prototype and VR football game demo will be tested in three state-of-the-art Brazilian football academies under the Blockchain Sports Ecosystem. Over 500 young athletes will trial Infinity Football XR to enhance training through gamification and immersive play. This technology promises to transform not only competitive football but also training and talent development, offering new ways to learn, play, and connect with the sport.
"Being recognized as an honoree by the CES Innovation Awards® committee is more than just an award — it’s a testament to our belief that technology can transform the way we connect with sports and gaming. With Infinity Football XR, we are creating an entirely new playing field that bridges the physical and digital. Imagine a world where teams can compete with each other being hundreds miles away, feeling every pass, every tackle, and every goal as if you’re right on the same pitch. This is what Infinity Football XR is all about. We strive to bring sports everyone loves into an immersive, accessible, and real-life-like digital space. And this is just the beginning.", – said Dimitri Mikhalchuk, Blockchain Sports XR CCO.
