Zero Latency Virtual Reality Experience Review

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to try out virtual reality entertainment with Zero Latency! Their game concept was really interesting as all of us were allowed to be free roam, allowing multi-player of 8 people team fighting off killer zombies to stay alive or solving puzzle in a avatar world. Anyway, do you know that they actually converted the entire 4,200 square feet of retail space into warehouse scale VR gaming zone for a perfect experience for everyone? I remembered the times I used to travel to timezone just to play Land of the Dead in arcades. Sian. I was so hardcore that I end up spamming all my money to ensure that I don't die at the giant lump zombie monster stage LOL now i don't die so easy already cause I have a team!! WEW!!
All of us were equipped with headgears with microphones, military-style backpacked and the high-end VR headsets to enter into the 360 degree interactive virtual world. The cool part is that the wireless technology allows every single player to move around freely in the gaming space, as well as to communicate and strategise with team mates in real time. I would totally think that Zero Latency is great for team building for corporate events, families and friends for an unforgettable cool experience!
So, there are basically three gaming worlds to choose from:
- Engineerium (15mins) - Perfect for first-timers and VR experimenters which brings a family friendly fantasy alien world combines with ancient floating platform and puzzle challenges.
- Zombie Survival (15 mins) - Surrounded with waves and waves of zombies. Question is can you stay alive until the rescue team arrives?! This is an intended gaming undead shooter experience that guaranteed to keep your adeline alive if you try it!
- Singularity (30mins) - Fight against killer robots and drones in zero gravity? Yes man! Watch out for danger in a secret military space station where you survival will depend on four weapon modes such as scatter, beam, pulse rifle or fail gun against the enemy.
Unfortunately, we didn't get to try all of the gaming worlds but we did tried engineerium and zombie survival. It was a crazy fun experience overall as we were floating around as avatars going down the slopes of the virtual world and the next moment, there's whale, birds and paradise and we were supposed to float to our respective orbs where we are all required to touch the globe and to the next mission. That was our backpack that we were all suppose to wear and get ready.
Super excited to get all our equipments ready and our laser guns!! That was me flipping my hair to not let it kiap my hair HAHAHA and of course, not forgetting you'll also hold a perfectly weighted, custom-made simulated weapon you hand for game sessions that requires firepower.
So this was the virtual avatar world that we tried. So i was the female avatar floating around endlessly finding for planks to go up lol. Not sure if you can imagine playing this, basically you have to go "up" to another virtual island where there lies your spot in the island.
Really really wanna try this someday! This is the damn cool Singularity gaming world I was talking about!
Each play-through is a unique experience with success both measured by personal score and team score. So you confirm get that satisfaction feeling when you are the only girl shooter in the team clinching one of the top three positions HAHAHA you never know cause some guys are quite noob :P
This is some scary zombie apocalypse i swear. The zombie was right on my face and I was crazily firing my gun and loading the laser by activating the refill on my gun repeatedly HAHAHA
Zero Latency packages all comes with 15 minutes of detailed gameplay briefing including safety and game objectives and 30 minutes of hyper-immersive VR gameplay and finish off with a private debriefing session with your squad at the exclusive ZL lounge before returning to the real world. Also, if you are wondering if your items will be well-kept, don't worry! they do provide lockers which are two sided for you to keep your items safe while you are busy shooting the zombies and floating around as a avatar.
