Escape this world and enter the metaverse at the most advanced VR experience in the world, Sandbox VR. Now launching their second UK site at Bullring & Grand Central shopping centre in Birmingham.
Sandbox VR pairs the very latest in gaming technology with Hollywood motion capture cameras, 3D precision full-body trackers and haptic feedback suits so that you feel like you’re literally stepping inside a movie. The incredible tech allows you to experience touch, motion and vibrations as you explore the wide range of interactive worlds – so you don’t just see the action, you feel it. Their Holborn site has proved extremely popular and a powerful showcase for their enhanced experience.
Sandbox VR is all about social gaming, so the VR goggles and body suits allow you to see your friends and interact with them as together you explore new worlds, take on terrifying challenges and experience high-adrenaline adventures. Up to six players can enjoy this experience together.
There are a whole host of games for you to take on. Embody your inner pirate and search for lost treasure in Curse of Davy Jones. Play your part in defending the planet against alien invaders, using the last remaining space elevator to leave Earth in Amber Sky 2088. Live your best life as part of Star Trek: Discovery as you sign up as a Starfleet Officer and get beamed off world for your mission. Then there’s the one we all want to play, battling a zombie apocalypse. However, in this version there are five possible endings so the decisions you make can change the way the story ends!
Once the gaming is over you can recover in the relaxed bar area and watch back some of the highlights from your adventures; cocktail in one hand, pizza in the other. However, this won’t be like any bar experience you’ve ever had before. The bar run by a permanent robotic bartender, the Makr Shakr, affectionately named Toni, who can make up to 80 drinks an hour.
Sandbox VR will be in good gaming company as Bullring & Grand Central is also home to Treetop Adventure Golf and Lane7 will be moving in later this year.
