If you’re a gaming or tech enthusiast like me, you know the excitement around virtual reality (VR). We’ve all seen VR headsets, but experiencing immersive VR multiplayer games with friends is next level.
During a recent trip to Singapore, we discovered Hologate – a VR gaming hub providing the most fun and social VR experience yet.
First Impressions
Located at The Clementi Mall, Hologate’s outlet features a sleek modern lobby. After signing waiver forms, we were briefed on the gear and gameplay.
The staff helped outfit my squad in VR backpacks, headsets with motion trackers, and replica gun controllers. Despite looking like a sci-fi movie scene, it was comfortable and easy to move around.
Entering the Game
Donning our VR gear, my friends and I stepped through doorways into separate “holodecks” for our gameplay arena. Suddenly, we were transported into virtual worlds together as avatars.
Looking down, I saw virtual arms and a body matching my movements! In my first game, I gripped my laser gun, ready to shoot spaceships and asteroids barreling towards me. It felt surreal but completely natural.
Multiplayer Mayhem
What makes Hologate special is playing with others in virtual reality. We laughed hysterically trying to shoot alien spaceships while dodging attacks.
Thanks to accurate body tracking, I could squat and move to evade fire. The immersion and graphics were mind-blowing! We played three different games, from zany cartoons to a shooter set on Mars.
Worth the Splurge
At S$45 for 30 minutes, it’s not cheap. But for a one-of-a-kind VR gaming experience, it was worth it. Hologate delivered an unmatched level of immersion and fun with friends.
The intuitive gear and gameplay meant anyone could dive in, from gamers to first-timers. If you want a taste of the future of multiplayer VR gaming, this is a must-try. Just come ready for action-packed fun!
