Gameplay

Players are taken back to the '80s/early '90s and are put inside a retro arcade room. In the game, players are able to interact with mini-games including Bowling, Air Hockey Skeeball, and more.

The main feature of the game focuses on customisation and being able to emulate your favourite arcade games, by using any of the 30 Arcade Cabinets. The game also supports Non-VR.
