The 360° video stands out among the main formats of immersive journalism, in it the viewer himself explores the video space, becoming a witness of events. The formats of photogrammetry, virtual reality (VR), 3D panoramas and 3D maps are also immersive. New formats and technologies have revolutionized the media sphere and allowed to create more dynamic and interesting stories. Immersive technologies made possible to transport the audience directly to the center of the news event through the format of 360-degree video and three-dimensional virtual reality, providing the «effect of presence». The format of 3D models and photogrammetry allowed users to interact with stories on a visual level more actively. Immersive technologies have also had a profound impact on the functioning of immersive journalism and fundamentally changed the way audiences interact with news stories. «Radio Svoboda», «Texty», «Ukraїner», «The New York Times», «The Guardian», «Der Tagesspiegel», «WDR» and other media experiment with the immersive formats. They give the opportunity for viewers to be in the center of a news event directly or to get an interactive, data-rich experience. This immersive approach allowed for increased empathy and understanding of each information consumer because they can feel and see the environments which are associated with a particular story. Key words: new media, media format, media technology, immersive technologies, immersive journalism.
