Oceania: Live in NYC released September 24, 2013! It is a live video album documenting the December 10, 2012 performance at Brooklyn's Barclays Center in New York City. The concert was originally scheduled for Halloween night in 2012, but was postponed due to Hurricane Sandy. The 24-song show was released on several home audio and video formats, including in three-dimensional form. The performance saw the band play the entire Oceania album in full, followed by a cover of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" and ten original career-spanning songs. The film was directed by Milton Lange, and the DVD and Blu-ray editions include interviews with stage designer Sean Evans as well as a photo gallery.

The large-scale production and stage show of the Oceania tour was in part inspired by Roger Waters' The Wall Live tour. Billy Corgan had seen one of the shows in recent years, and reached out to Waters' stage designer, Sean Evans, to do something similar for The Smashing Pumpkins. The result was an elaborate moon-shaped backdrop with a mixture of strobe and mood-setting lights that accompanied the songs. The band used new video-mapping technology to capture the performance in 3D and record in 5.1 surround sound.

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer called Oceania: Live in NYC "an essential Smashing Pumpkins offering", praising the elaborate production, Corgan's vocal range, the dueling guitar solos with Jeff Schroeder, and Mike Byrne's "Neil Peart-ish flourishes". In addition to Pumpkins classics and new offerings off of Oceania, the cover of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" was singled out as a highlight. AllMusic called the video an "intense" multimedia experience and gave it a rating of 4 out of 5 stars.
