?????????? My husband and I had an amazing game night experience here! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like family super friendly, welcoming, and patient as they walked us through everything step by step. The place was spotless, well-organized, and had such a fun and immersive vibe. It truly felt like we were transported to another world. We laughed, bonded, and had such a great time together. Highly recommend for couples, families, or friends looking for a unique and enjoyable night ou
This is for my experience on Sunday March 23,2025. I originally booked a half hour as it was my first time with any type of VR playing and it was so great !! That exact same day we went back at a later time for a 1 hour session and truly I had not had such true fun in a long time I was so excited to go back and had a blast. Our game master was Caleb who was excellent and made sure we knew what to do and how to handle our equipment. I wish they had some type of membership option so I could go even more often
Sooooooo freakin funnn. We'll absolutely be coming back!!!!! Update: I forgot to mention that Zach who got us all set up was also amazing! We might even try out the virtual escape room too. Thanks Zero Latency VR - Austin (South)
We had an amazing time playing Outbreak! Even though it was our first time trying VR we were given very clear instructions and the video quality was phenomenal so it didn't take long to get the hang of it. We had a blast. Highly recommend this location!
I had a blast with the owners Steve and his two sons Zak and Caleb they are awesome wholesome kind folks. This day made my birthday. I got the full package and played a bit of everything. I even got to take a photo with them. See yall next time guys.
Decided to come to zero latency south Austin randomly and did not regret it! Was fairly priced and had a great time playing the zombie game. Was fun and would recommend everyone to come out and try especially if you love VR games.
Zero Latency VR was the best group activity I've ever tried! We did the ?zombie? Outbreak, and oh my goodness it was so intense. I'm a first time VR player and I already want to do it again. Caleb was the coolest host, definitely recommend this activity!
I had an absolutely incredible experience at Zero Latency - South Austin! From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was exciting, but what really made the visit unforgettable was the outstanding service from Caleb. He was not only knowledgeable about the VR games and equipment but also super patient and enthusiastic. He took the time to walk us through everything, offered great recommendations, and even jumped in to make sure we got the most out of our session. His energy and friendliness made the experie
This place was sooo fun! Zack was amazing, explained the experience in great detail and it was exactly as he said. Ive never done anything like this before and absolutely loved it. Definitely would come back!
Had a blast with my two daughters! So much fun. Excellent experience and professional courteous staff. Definitely recommend and we will be back soon!
Zac was awesome always great to meet a fellow metal head! Excellent customer service! Explained everything clearly and concisely Great date spot and would also be wonderful with friends so bring big groups lol Axe throwing was also cool very fun once you get the gang of it lol All and all Excellent experience for a price that doesn't break the wallet Definitely worth a look
Just had an absolutely mind-blowing time at Zero Latency South Austin and had to shout out Caleb for making the whole experience next-level! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was welcoming, the tech was on point, and Caleb?s energy made everything even more fun. We tried one of the zombie VR missions called Outbreak and it felt like we were dropped into a real-life video game. The equipment was clean and high quality, and the space is huge?plenty of room to walk around without bumping into each other.
This place is awesome this was my first time trying this place and it's way better than my oculus quest that I have at home. Caleb was a huge help with our experience made it much more enjoyable.
Caleb was awesome and was super helpful with explaining everything. The place was clean and our group had major fun. We will be coming back. I've gone to Sandbox VR and while it was fun, it was twice the price for games with little improvement over the games here. The games felt longer here and the staff is still very friendly.
My 11yo daughter and I came down on a date to play B-Block Breakout. (It was her first legitimate escape room.) It was an absolute blast! The game was easy to move around and manipulate, but the puzzles were just the right amount of challenging. We actually got caught up in a couple areas, but were still able to beat the clock and break out of prison. Absolute teamwork is a must; which made it so much fun! Will definitely be back with the rest of the family, and future dates!
This place was absolutely incredible! Caleb was a great asset, extremely professional and very knowledgeable about all things involved. We did this with the whole family, and it was also a great workout, so be prepared for that too lol. I wanna do this every weekend now. Make sure you do the SOUTH AUSTIN LOCATION!!! We went to the other location by accident and that gentleman working there, tall guy with dark hair, was very unprofessional. So it worked out that we came here. I'll make the extra 30 minute dr
Went here with my sister for the first time and had an amazing time. The employees were so kind and very detailed in their explanations which made the experience better all the more better. And as for the actual gaming experience, would recommend 100%. Definitely a must do if you're visiting or just for some fun.
Caleb was super accommodating, hospitable, and an overall homey. Space Marines and Outbreak were super immersive and had my party cackling.
Had great time! The hour and a half was the perfect amount of time to try every game!
I've gone twice with my husband to do the virtual escape rooms and we have such a blast. I think we burn equal calories laughing at ourselves and each other as we do running around the space ship/pirate ship/haunted house. The workers are incredibly helpful and nonjudgmental. The most fun date night.
Videos don't do this place enough justice! This is one of those kind of places that you just have to come experience. I came with my best friend and his son, and I brought my son. Not only did we play one game, we immediately booked a second game for the same night. I highly recommend VR for anybody who loves any type of gameplay experience! I give this place a 12 /10!!!!!!
This place was such a great experience! My boyfriend and I decided to go with the VR experience and it was so much fun! Zac was amazing at explaining the rules and helping us choose the game. He made our first experience great and I can't wait to come back!
Great place to have fun with the family. Great customer service and we will definitely be back ??
We just randomly walked in for something to do for my sons 8th birthday. They were accommodating and had availability for us to play. We did the pirates plague vr escape room. He had a blast, we were able to complete it with just the two of us. Thank you to the employee Griffin for setting it up for us. My little guy had so much fun!
Great group experience! We played Space Marine & it was quite the adventure!
Was looking for a family friendly activity to do on a Sunday so we did the VR and this has been hands down the most realistic VR experience and the most fun I've had! We had a blast and Caleb the host was awesome! Will def make the 1.5hr drive again!
This was my first time playing a VR game. My visit to Zero Latency was a wonderful introduction to the platform. The selection of experiences is great. Caleb?s hospitality was top-notch. I would certainly visit again. EDIT: I've returned to Zero Latency a second time sometime after trying out Sandbox VR. While Sandbox VR may offer additional wearable tech beyond a weapon and headset that is not available at Zero Latency, Zero Latency remains the best option for a VR experience in Austin. Zero Latency featu
I came with some friends and had a great time! It was my first time doing VR, and I am not normally into shooters, but I still enjoyed it!
As first-time VR players, we had an amazing experience! Thanks to our game master, we fully enjoyed our first adventure. We'll definitely be returning to Zero Latency VR in Austin for more fun!
This was our first ever VR gaming and I have to say it best expectations! It was incredibly fun and honestly addictive. Can't wait to come back. Staff was super friendly and helpful.
I took my two teenage boys to this and what a blast. Such a fun experience that you must do.
Probably the most fun we've had in Austin in a while. The zombies game mode was great and the player v player was even better. Great customer service and overall solid experience. Would easily come here again
From the moment we stepped into the business we were welcomed as if we were long time customers! And it was our first time!! Staff were extremely informative about their products, also I loved the fact that they play a debrief video to get you in the mindset of a soldier playing an important role in Outbreak (Zombie Game) This place far exceeded my expectations and did everything with a spirit of excellence! I highly recommend this state of the art VR experience for everyone!
I didn't know what to expect, but I had the best time! Great for a date night or a night with friends. Who knew I had throwing stars skillz??
Caden, who was our tour guide, was extremely helpful and informative in helping the group to decide on the best experience to choose. I would say that Space Marines was a blast, and I was impressed the GPU's could handle the bandwidth of high resolution rendering with 8 simultaneous players and giant hordes of aliens and bloody, animated gore. They could definitely use a second arena to handle the flow of the groups, and it appears popular enough for a second one.
Second time coming here with our nephews and friends. Caleb was awesome! Just as friendly and helpful as last time. Beyond creating amazing memories with our nephews it is a ton of fun for the adults too
Zach was amazing!!!! He convinced me to do the 45$ VR game of Warhammer space marines, instead of the 20$ for axe throwing. It was so worth it. If Zach didn't tell me how awesome the VR is, I would?ve never tried. One of the most fun experiences I've ever had. Zach is amazing, nothing less than 5 star. Caleb was amazing too!
Funnest place in Austin! By Far. We have been here since it opened and I feel like family. The hospitality is amazing and the vibes are off the charts! Caleb and Zac were amazing at explaining everything and this is our go to spot!
Great experience!!! We did Outbreak and it was super cool. The VR equipment was well taken care of and the staff was super friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone that likes games.
Unforgettable Virtual Reality Experience at Zero Latency South Austin Review: From the moment I stepped into Zero Latency in South Austin, I knew I was in for a unique and thrilling experience. The facility is top-notch, with state-of-the-art VR equipment that transports you into incredibly immersive worlds. The staff here are not only professional but also exceptionally friendly, ensuring that everyone, regardless of their VR experience, feels comfortable and excited about the adventure ahead. I was par
Awesome time playing the games. I had a back-to-back experience with Far Cry : VR and the Space Marine VR. All of them were intense and action-packed fun. When you play, they put you in a large arena to actually move in the given space. With Space Marines, I ran around in circles dodging enemy attacks whilst firing at them. Very cool experience!
This was my wife and I?s first time trying VR and it was truly amazing! Zach was a huge help and made it an incredible experience. I will 100% be coming back and will bring a bigger group too!
My stepson lives with his mother in Colorado and visits us each month. Every time he visits, my husband and I make sure to bring him here as he loves the games and atmosphere. It's nice to be able to bring a kid to such a friendly and clean environment. He has a blast with the VR games. They have bundles and stamp cards to ensure affordability. We never have to worry about starving because they also have snacks and drinks to purchase. The bathrooms are always clean and smells refreshing for a bathroom. The
I took my nephew and we did the Space Marine VR. We had a blast and enjoyed the VR experience. It took us a minute to get used to walking and moving but then we did awesome! We will return to play again. Great experience and great time!
Everyone is super nice.! Great walkthrough of the environment and of the game your playing.! Place is also good about the cleanliness of the building even have snacks readily available(with extra purchase of course)! Will definitely come back again
Zero Latency offers an incredible experience that's hard to match. The graphics are nothing short of amazing, creating a fully immersive virtual world that feels so real. The management is top-notch, with friendly and professional staff ensuring everything runs smoothly. The area is impeccably clean, which adds to the overall high-quality experience. If you're looking for the best fun experience ever, Zero Latency delivers in every way. Highly recommend!
Amazing time, super cool games and awesome staff. Highly recommend.
Very fun experience and roomy! Staff is very friendly and excited to hear about the experience. I also appreciate the stamp rewards for future games.
Went with my husband and his family for Christmas and it was so much fun. Way more realistic than I expected and we'll have so many stories to share for a long time. We played the Christmas version of outbreak and did an escape room. Escape room was more fun than expected and outbreak got our heart rates up. Both were extremely fun and HILARIOUS. Loved it, going again.
By far the best VR experience I've ever had. Owners/staff are also passionate about gaming and really care that you have a good time. I would highly recommend and consider this a strict upgrade over other experiences (eg Sandbox, arcades, etc)
Great place! Way more fun than I expected
OMG!!! This was the coolest experience! I never expected to be so completely transported to another world! The employees were so incredibly kind and helpful. I can't recommend this place enough!!
Very fun and a great way to sweat, fun with friends and family and is intense
Finish watching a movie with my son walked over to this place. Super nice staff The experience you had was amazing with the VR system. Going to put my son's birthday party there
We had such a great time! The VR is amazing and it's truly an immersive experience. We did the Pirates Plague escape room and really felt like we were at sea!! Definitely will be back for more
I've done both Sandbox VR and Zero Latency South and our experience at ZLS was superior. Great service from the owner and the equipment was clean and well kept. We did an escape room and it was a ton of fun. Cannot wait to go back. As a side note they are located to the right of the theater next to Air Force recruiter, same side as green mesquite.
Freaking awesome place to have some fun! Great for 1 or more people. Lots of different games to play and they also offer axe throwing! Enjoy!
Completely immersed one of a kind experience where it feels like you're actively in the combat zones fighting off all kinds of creatures coming after you. Will be back many more times!
Caleb was a very enthusiastic person! Very engaging and making sure everyone was safe and having fun. It is our second time, and we will be coming back for sure!
Fun experience! Staff is super friendly! Went for my buddy?s bachelor trip and we had a blast 5/5 stars!!! Would come back again!
Did a VR escape room with my 9 and 11 year old boys and it was a blast. They were engaged the entire time, and were already asking when we could come back before we had even left the building. The game we played had lots of interesting problem solving mechanics, and hints if you needed them. It was a challenge, but also not so frustrating you wanted to give up.
The VR escape room was awesome. My fiance and I had a blast doing the dragon one together but may do something a little bit harder next time (we have a little bit of prior experience with VR). The axe throwing was also super cool. We've been to axe throwing places before but being able to play connect four, tic Tac toe, and other games with the projector was sick. 10/10
This is my second time visiting Zero Latency. It is vastly superior to SandboxVR and I couldn't recommend it enough. SandboxVR lagged and was very loud. The staff were nice, but over all, Zero Latency is the way to go.
I loved it absolutely loved it it is so much fun I 100% recommend and to the owner AMAZING YOUR STAFF IS SO AMAZING ????????????????
Celebrated my 60th birthday with friends playing Singularity. It was so fun! Even if you have never played video games or VR games you can do this! It was a blast. I can't wait to go back!
One of the best VR experiences I have ever done in Austin. 1st time was the zombies & the 2nd time was the warhammer. Both really fun games!
Amazing experience! I'm not a gamer but I still loved it. Weekdays are a great time to stop by due to the lower traffic. 100% recommend!
It was a fun bonding experience with my family! We did the be zombie shooting game which felt so real! The employees were phenomenal, very kind and knowledgeable and helped along the way. Overall 10/10 experience, so fun, and worth every penny! Will be back for more fun!
Awesome experience! I have never done a VR game before. This was a blast! Definitely bring a group, it makes it more fun! Great management ????
This experience was so much fun. I would do this again. Loved how spacious it is and it feels very immersive. Went with the Space Marines and it had a lot more play time and more movement.
Great experience. Very immersive. Fun game to play with friends. Caleb did a great job explaining the game and helping set us up.
Space Marine: The experience was absolutely amazing! I enter the establishment and am greeted warmly; I wonder what I'm getting into after signing the waiver and then I sign the dotted line! So! I get suited up and start the tutorial! I learn the mechanics of the gun, feel the weight of the armor (and gun and pledge), pledge myself to The Space Marines, drink in the wrath of the space god, ready myself to stand with my brothers against all, and promise to return to the emperor; the war-mission the item, mor
Amazing experience, very worth it, way better than what I expected. I highly recommend. Especially in groups! For family and friends!
Super awesome experience. The zombie game is intense, and left us covered in sweat from running around. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Definitely need to come back and try the other games.
Seen this place on an ad and took my son and a friend. I can't explain how much more intense it was in person. Rate 12/10. Any age anytime everybody is gonna have a great time.
Such a great experience! VR was a good workout & good QT with the family. The guys are so nice & helpful! 10/10 recommend!
Space marines was a lot more team interactive then the zombies. Recommend a lot of fun !!
Came here on vacation. This is a really fun option to do in doors! Absolutely great family fun.
Five stars because this was my very first VR experience and it was super fun! But based on what my more experienced friends said, I suspect the tech (graphics and latency) might be better elsewhere. Didn't matter though because the feeling of immersion is intense. Walking across platforms and through corridors. Shooting robots and flying drones. Getting caught in cross fires and working as a team to fight. Man, so fun! Their orientation was good. Explained everything very well. And they have several other
So in one day I went to SandboxVR (Domain) and Zero Latency VR South Austin (ZLVRSA)? and I have to say the experience at Zero Latency VR South Austin blew SandboxVR out of the water in pretty much every dimension. ZLVRSA was more affordable, had a WAY more spacious arena, superior gameplay with, believe it or not ?zero latency,? and overall way better staff. I have gone to ZLVRSA three times now, and I will continue to keep bringing friends, family, and colleagues for days to come.
Did both the VR and axe throwing and they were both a blast. The staff was really friendly and fun to interact with.
Very fun. Great games and helpful, cool staff. Zack was a great host for our games. Highly recommend this venue and the zombie outbreak game.
This place is so goooood! Definitely have enjoyed myself both times I have been there! I even forgot that reality existed!
This was the most fun I have had in a long time we came here for my boyfriend's birthday and had a blast we did the Outbreak slay season VR experience and it was so real we laughed screamed and had so much fun. The customer service was 5 star i felt very welcomed and I understood the rules clearly we are definitely coming back soon!!! Thanks so much for an amazing experience.
I have NEVER done anything like this before. The coolest part is being able to do two things at the same time. Me and 3 other friends went in and did an escape room and as much as I've always wanted to do that having it be VR made so much more fun. The two guys that were there that day were amazing! They were so knowledgeable and excited to explain how everything worked. It's always nice going somewhere knowing that you're welcomed there and can see the excitement radiate from the people who work there. Asi
We were bored and looked up things to do and Zero Latency popped up as a recommendation. We came in with zero expectations and were blown away with how immersive and enjoyable it was. Theirs a huge area to play and it's so different then your typical at home VR. It takes some getting used to trusting the space around you but it was an amazing time. Also the staff is super friendly and helpful. Overall great experience.
Great experience. Very fun! Great staff! 10/10 recommend.
We had a fun experience here trying out their VR gaming setup. The team is friendly and run you through the process very easily. The VR system is great! It is very immersive and definitely worth a try!
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.
Absolutely! Arcades attract a mix of casual players and serious gamers. Whether you're jumping into a four-player co-op or chatting between rounds, it's a fun, low-pressure way to connect over shared interests.
Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.
Yes! Many arcades host regular competitions, retro nights, cosplay parties, and more. Whether you're into high scores or just want to watch and vibe, events add an extra layer to the experience.
No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
