The VOID has blown our minds with their Utah theme park and Ghostbuster’s experience in New York—and also announced in February a collaboration with China-based Shanda Group to build China’s first VR theme park.

It has been over a year since we first experienced The VOID’s VR theme park in Utah. Sega is bringing the Zero Latency multiplayer VR arcade to Japan.

We’ve also talked about the latencies that we can expect today from cloud rendering. The keys to having a good experience, of course, are frame rate and latency, and we manage the frame rate within the CloudXR package to match the one of the end device we’re streaming to. The latency … that is the big question, right?

More recently, I had the opportunity to try the Ghostbusters experience at the VOID in Utah. The result for me and other Oculus owners was a dramatic increase in the fun factor and time spent in VR. The VOID is pioneering a location-based VR experience beyond what is possible to have in the home today.
