Game console parties are the next new trend

When planning your kid’s birthday parties everyone tended to opt for the old stables like soft play parties or Cinema then food out, however there’s a new type of party that’s becoming increasingly popular and that is gameplay parties.

These types of parties are usually VR parties where you choose a selection of friends, and you all play together in a virtual reality game. Most parties are aimed at groups of players either taking it in turns to play one game or all playing together in a multiroom experience.

You are usually given a dedicated party room with food and drinks of your choice and a fun atmosphere suitable for all levels of gamers whether you’re a noob or a pro!

The multi-player games are often referred to as free-roam games and in these you can battle zombies or monsters or even battle each other. There’s usually a limit of about 4 people to play these as you have to be able to have enough space to move without actually crashing into each other.

Another option is VR motion games, these tend to be car or motorbike racing where a number of you can race each other either head-to-head or in time trials if there is more of you.

These VR parties are great fun and a change from the norm so are a great option for your next birthday treat.
