Self-contained VR attraction for four players. 17×17-foot footprint, PCVR headsets, 20+ arcade-style games, 5-minute sessions. Turnkey system with ongoing content updates. Installed in 400+ locations globally.
Hologate Arena is a self-contained VR attraction that fits four players in a 17×17-foot footprint. Players wear PCVR headsets and optional bHaptics vests, stand in fixed positions, and play through Hologate’s library of arcade-style games — shooters, escape rooms, co-op missions, and PvP matches. Sessions run 5 minutes per game, and venues can stack multiple games into longer experiences up to 45 minutes.
The system launched in 2017 and is installed in over 400 locations globally. The content library includes 20+ titles, spanning zombie shooters, space battles, and IP-based games like Ghostbusters VR Academy. Gameplay is designed for high throughput — short sessions, quick turnover, spectator monitors for queue engagement. Hologate provides ongoing content updates, and venues can mix and match games to suit their audience.
This is a turnkey product. Hologate handles hardware, software, content distribution, and support. In the US, the system is supported by Hologate directly, Creative Works, and Betson. Operators need an attendant to manage sessions, brief players, and handle equipment between groups. The self-contained design means no external tracking infrastructure — everything runs inside the Arena footprint.
Hologate Arena works for family entertainment centers, arcades, bowling alleys, trampoline parks, and other high-traffic amusement venues where fast session turnover and broad age appeal matter. The game library skews arcade — accessible, repeatable, social. If your business model is built on quick plays and volume, this is the format to evaluate.
