One day after Xbox, now PlayStation has taken over the Vegas Sphere
PlayStation has taken over the Las Vegas Sphere, a day after Xbox used the venue to paint the Nevada skyline green.
The venue, which is an 18,600-seat entertainment arena, features 580,000 sq ft of LED surrounding the building. According to a pitch deck for the venue, a one-day advertising campaign on the Vegas Sphere costs roughly $450,000.
