Welcome to Free Roam!
The Arc Gaming Centre has introduced a new and exciting way to experience Virtual Reality with Free Roam VR. Whether you're planning a fun family outing, a thrilling adventure with friends, or a unique corporate event, this next-level group activity is designed to thrill, challenge, and entertain.
What makes Free Roam different from Room Scale?
Traditional Room Scale VR uses individual stations 10' x 10' allowing you to either play individual games, or in groups with other players in their own stations. Movement is restricted within the confines of your station requiring players to "Teleport" within the game to different locations. Games and experiences which work best in or Room Scale VR Stations include our popular Arizona Sunshine, Gorilla Tag, and many of our Escape Rooms.
Free Roam VR breaks free from the confines of individual stations and wired headsets. Our 400 Sq Ft Free Roam area accommodates from 2 up to 6 players interacting within the same space. Players move around interacting with the environment and other players bringing your VR experience to a whole other level! Imagine walking freely through an alien landscape, medieval castle, or even a futuristic space station, all without ever bumping into a wall! No boundaries, just endless exploration.
Our new Free Roam VR experiences utilizes brand new cutting edge VR Vive Focus Vision Headsets with ultra high resolution immersing you into a world like no other. Free Roam VR reduces the motion sickness sometimes felt within the confines of individual stations as the player is free to move about within the large Free Roam area.
Families, get ready to bond in a whole new way! Free Roam VR is perfect for all ages, offering interactive adventures that will have everyone — kids, parents, even grandma — engaged and laughing. It’s the kind of high-energy, high-tech activity that’ll have everyone raving long after it’s over.
And if your corporate team-building events are starting to feel a little… stale, Free Roam VR is the fresh, exciting change you’ve been looking for. **Teamwork is at the core** of every game. Your group will have to communicate, collaborate, and problem-solve together, all while being immersed in some seriously cool challenges.
Whether you're planning a family day out or a corporate event, Free Roam VR is the perfect blend of adventure, teamwork, and excitement. Ready to experience the future of fun? Come to Arc Gaming Centre and see for yourself why Free Roam VR is the ultimate group adventure.
