Zero Latency are going form strength to strength with their large-scale, free-roam, multiplayer virtual reality (VR) experience. Currently they have 5 games to play, with another player-vs-player game on the way. The Zero Latency platform is now installed in 24 Zero Latency arenas in 13 countries, across 4 continents.
The latest development is a collaboration with Microsoft, HP, and Intel that’ll see the creation of the next generation of the Zero Latency platform.
These partners will not only provide new technology such as software and hardware but also marketing assistance to help broaden Zero Latency’s global reach. This is the first time that any of these technology giants have worked with Zero Latency.
“Microsoft is excited by the transformational experiences virtual reality enables and by how Zero Latency is expanding VR’s footprint using location-based entertainment.
We look forward to working with them to reach customers with experiences based on Mixed Reality headsets and our cloud-based services, and working with them to expand to new markets.”
Yancey Smith, Senior Director of Mixed Reality Commercial Solutions at Microsoft.
“Zero Latency provides stimulating immersive free roam multiplayer virtual reality experiences to their customers around the world.

Zero Latency is one of the first companies in the world to create and deploy a multiplayer free-roam VR (FRVR) platform. The platform enables up to 8 players to roam untethered in a VR game facility using state-of-the-art VR headsets, military-grade backpacks, surround-sound headphones and microphones, and simulated weapons/game controllers.
More information on the software, hardware and technology guidance from Microsoft, HP, and Intel is coming soon
