HBO’s Game of Thrones now occupies the Iron Throne of Facebook 360-degree video views.
Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said in a post Friday that the 360 video of the opening sequence for the drama series became the social network’s most-viewed 360 video, with some 5.3 million views over a 24-hour period.
The social network said in an email to SocialTimes that HBO teamed up with Elastic, designers of the show’s opening sequence, to create a 360 video and virtual reality version, adding:
This new version includes the classic maps of the various kingdoms, the moving models of the Wall and cities—all rendered to be viewed and explored as a 360 video and in immersive VR.
