About this tour
When Alex from our BugBitten team tested this VR session, we found a genuinely inclusive take on virtual reality — no hardcore gaming background required. You'll spend just over an hour cycling through up to four games on the Infinity Platform, the Southern Hemisphere's largest VR setup. The venue sits in New Zealand and caters to everyone from curious first-timers to seasoned gamers. It's slick, accessible, and feels less like a gamer den and more like a proper entertainment venue that happens to use cutting-edge tech.
Highlights
- Infinity Platform setup — the largest in the Southern Hemisphere's VR scene
- Four-game rotation keeps pace punchy without feeling rushed
- Zero experience needed; genuinely beginner-friendly vibe
- Wheelchair accessible venue with thoughtful design throughout
- Service animals welcome alongside standard prams and strollers
- Games span genres — not just for hardcore gamers
- Full session clocks 1h 10m; enough time without fatigue
- Mix of ages and backgrounds in the room felt genuinely relaxed
What to expect
Alex rolled in expecting a sterile arcade vibe and left pleasantly surprised by how welcoming the setup felt. You'll check in, get fitted into your headset (they walk you through it), and then rotate through up to four different VR experiences. Each game lasts roughly 10–15 minutes, with brief handover time between stations. The Infinity Platform itself is a specially designed space that tracks your movement, so you're not tethered to one spot — you move around the virtual world naturally. Some experiences are more active (dodging, aiming, exploring); others are more immersive storytelling. The venue felt calm and well-organised rather than hectic, and the staff checked in without hovering.

Good to know
This is genuinely for everyone — no gaming credentials required, and the pace is forgiving. If you're curious about VR but intimidated by hardcore setups, this demystifies it. Families with young kids can bring prams; service animals are welcome; wheelchair access is built in. Public transport gets you there easily. The hour-plus session feels substantial without wearing you out.
Not all four games suit limited mobility equally well, so do mention any movement concerns when you arrive. The venue is busy during school holidays and weekends. VR can feel disorienting for first-timers — if you're motion-sensitive, mention it upfront. Children under about six may struggle with headset fit and game focus. Bring socks (you'll need them); the venue provides headsets and controllers. Group sizes vary but stay intimate. Peak times: school holidays, Friday–Sunday evenings.
