Problem
Traditional esports and virtual reality gaming are often limited to home setups or small arcade spaces, restricting social interaction, physical movement, and immersive team experiences. This makes it difficult for groups to enjoy high‑quality, large‑scale VR competition in a safe, shared environment.
Solution
EVA operates full‑scale virtual reality arenas where up to ten players can compete in first‑person shooter matches using VR headsets and tracked rifles across a 5,400 sq ft play area. A Game Master guides participants through safety briefings, equipment setup, and game rules, enabling both casual newcomers and competitive players to jump in quickly. Matches combine physical movement, reflexes, and strategy, delivering an immersive esports experience that can be extended with food, drinks, and private events. With a network of over 55 locations, EVA offers easy online booking and scalable sessions for parties, corporate team‑building, and tournament play.
