OUR STORY
THE JOURNEY
OUR STORY
THE JOURNEY
Zero Latency began with a simple idea: that virtual reality should be something you experience together, out in the world, not alone at home.
2012: Founders Tim Ruse (CEO), Scott Vandonkelaar (CTO) and Kyel Smith (COO) build the first prototype in their garage.
2014: The prototype debuts publicly at Pause Fest, a digital innovation conference in Australia.
2015: Zero Latency Melbourne opens as the world's first free-roam VR venue, with six-week waiting lists.
2022: We launched the world's first 6E wireless remote rendering solution, built with HTC, HP and Cisco, removing the need for truely wireless free-roam VR and lowering entry costs for new partners.
Today: 150+ venues across 30+ countries, 6 million-plus players, and IP collaborations with Ubisoft, Games Workshop, CD PROJEKT RED and Sony Pictures Entertainment.
EPIC ADVENTURES
THE GUEST EXPERIENCE
Step inside and everything changes. Up to 8 players roam free together across warehouse-scale virtual worlds, fully untethered, with nothing between them and the game. Guests blast through the robot uprising, outrun the zombie apocalypse, and crack mind-bending worlds wide open, side by side in the same physical space. It's as close as it gets to living inside a movie or video game.
We team up with the world's biggest studios to bring blockbuster IP to life, including Ubisoft (Far Cry), Sony Pictures (Jumanji), Games Workshop (Space Marine), and CD PROJEKT RED (Cyberpunk 2077), alongside original worlds built in-house by our team in Melbourne, Australia exclusive to Zero Latency VR atractions worldwide. This is premium, social, free-roam VR your guests can't get at home.
