The augmented reality (AR) or virtual reality (VR) revolution is changing the way we live and interact with the world around us and indeed they have the potential to create immersive and interactive experiences that can change the way we experience online gaming experiences, making them more interactive and immersive. It would be great if players could use virtual reality headsets to feel as if they were in a physical casino, with the ability to interact with the games and other players in a more natural and intuitive way... I'm sure some people wouldn't mind paying extra to have this difference of making the gaming experience more attractive and engaging.

However, even with all the evolution and innovation that this technology can bring to online casinos, I don't think anything will beat the experience of a physical casino... there is something special about visiting a physical casino, feeling the environment, the sound, the light and the energy of the people around you that AR and VR can even try to replicate but that can never reach the same immersion and excitement of a physical casino. Additionally, land-based casinos offer a social and human experience that is difficult to replicate in an online environment where players can connect with others and casino staff in a more personal and direct way, which can create a more enjoyable and memorable experience.

Maybe in the future we will reach a level of technology that allows for immersion in a virtual world that is completely neural, through hypnosis or something like that, which will then provide a total immersion that is very close to reality. But until then, I don't think land-based casinos will ever cease to exist.
