In the new Urban Air Aurora Family Entertainment Center, located in Aurora, Colorado (USA), which opened its doors on October 23rd this year, families are able to experience a VR attraction suitable for children. With the so-called “VR Portal“ the technology company of Spree Interactive from Nuremberg (Germany) has installed a custom “Spree Arena” free-roam VR station featuring its self-developed “Firefighter“ game as a suitable VR experience for the youngest generation. The company presented the concept of the free roam VR station at the IAAPA Expo Europe in Paris last year (cf. EAP 6/2019). In the installation in Aurora, up to ten persons can enjoy the detailly designed Firefighter VR experience simultaneously.
Scott Hussey, park owner, comments: “We love the VR Portal system as it allows for 10+ players to play the games together in a free-movement virtual reality environment. We see that as a huge upside on the number of guests who can enjoy a VR experience during their visit to our park as compared to other systems on the market.“ (eap)
