About this tour
When Alex from our team tried Omni VR in New Zealand, we found ourselves in one of the country's first multiplayer virtual reality setups. You're strapped into a full-body motion rig that tracks your movements in real time — think treadmill meets gaming console, but actually immersive. The tech is genuinely current and the scenario library is broad, so whether you're keen on shooters, puzzles, or survival games, there's something to match your mood. The whole session runs 40 minutes, which is the sweet spot: long enough to get properly absorbed, short enough that your legs don't start staging a mutiny.
Highlights
- Full-body motion tracking makes virtual movement feel genuinely physical
- Multiplayer setup means you're actually playing alongside mates in real time
- Broad game catalogue — sci-fi, survival, puzzle, and combat scenarios available
- All gear provided and fitted on site, no faffing with setup
- Compact session length keeps fatigue at bay
- Height and weight parameters inclusive for most travellers
What to expect
You'll arrive, get briefed on the gear, and be fitted into a harness system that feels surprisingly natural once it's on. The VR headset goes on, and suddenly you're standing in a digital world while your actual body stays grounded on the Omni platform. Movement is intuitive — your real steps translate directly into movement in-game, which creates genuine presence. Multiplayer games are where it shines: other players appear as avatars, and the coordination required for scenarios beats solo play hands down. Expect some initial awkwardness finding your balance and rhythm, then about 30 minutes of genuine engagement. The tech doesn't glitch in obvious ways, and guides keep things moving.
The space itself is compact and clean rather than flashy. You're not in a sprawling arcade; it's a focused, purpose-built setup. The scenarios vary wildly in intensity and style, so chat with staff about what suits you before you strap in.

Good to know
This is genuinely novel tech that works without constant hiccups. If you're into gaming or just curious about current VR, it's a solid 40-minute diversion. Multiplayer is the highlight — it's way more interesting than solo gaming. Groups love it because everyone's doing something together rather than spectating.
The height window (1.40m to 1.95m) rules out some travellers. Maximum weight is 130 kg. The physical exertion is real — it's not strenuous, but it's not passive either. Cardiovascular health matters; if you've got heart concerns, flag that with staff. Green Screen photos cost extra and aren't included. Sessions are booked, so walk-ups might face wait times during peak hours.
All gear is supplied. Public transport nearby makes getting there easy. Solo or groups work; staff will pair you with other players if needed. Bring water.
