Expanding at a robust CAGR of 27.1%, the global location-based VR entertainment market is expected to grow from US$ 3.89 billion in 2024 to US$ 42.86 billion by 2034.

Commonly known as "out-of-home entertainment" or "interactive multiplayer entertainment centers," location-based entertainment brings users into specially designed spaces to experience immersive activities. Unlike traditional at-home gaming, this format offers shared, high-end virtual experiences in arcades, malls, theme parks, and other dedicated venues. As virtual reality technology continues to evolve, it is reshaping how people engage with entertainment, blending digital immersion with real-world interaction.

Key Trends & Forecast

1. Hardware-Driven Growth: High-end VR headsets, motion platforms, 4D theaters, and multisensory elements remain the foundation of immersive experiences. As these technologies improve and drop in cost, more venues can provide premium attractions.
2. Social & Group Experiences: Experiences designed for groups-competitive VR games, multi-user arcades, or VR escape rooms-tap into rising consumer demand for shared experiences and social interaction.
3. Fusion with AR & Projection Tech: Mixed Reality frameworks that combine VR with projection mapping and augmented reality (AR) enhance immersion and broaden appeal across age groups.
4. Modular Venue Models: VR centers that host multiple VR experiences using the same infrastructure are becoming more prevalent, offering venues flexibility, cost savings, and differentiated programming.

Country-wise Evaluation

The entertainment industry is witnessing strong growth, driven by rising disposable incomes that enable consumers to allocate more of their budget to leisure and recreational activities. This trend is a key driver behind the growing popularity of VR products, particularly in developed nations such as the United States, Canada, and Japan. Among these, the United States is projected to command a significant share of the location-based VR entertainment market in North America.

The surge in the U.S. market is largely attributed to the rapid adoption of Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) across the entertainment and gaming sectors. These technologies have revolutionized content creation and consumption by offering deeply immersive experiences that go far beyond the capabilities of traditional media, capturing users' attention and enhancing engagement in entirely new ways.

Competitive Landscape

Key players in the location-based VR entertainment market are heavily investing in research and development to stay ahead of evolving trends and to deliver cutting-edge immersive experiences. These investments aim to enhance hardware performance, improve content quality, and create more interactive and engaging user environments.

In a notable development, Sony Pictures announced the launch of Wonderverse in November 2023-an immersive entertainment venue located in the Chicago metropolitan area. The attraction draws inspiration from popular Sony franchises such as Zombieland, 21 Jump Street, Bad Boys, and Ghostbusters, blending virtual reality with beloved TV shows, films, and games to deliver dynamic, story-driven experiences.

In April 2023, Netflix unveiled plans for a location-based entertainment experience at Japan's KidZania. This themed attraction will be based on Rilakkuma's Theme Park Adventure, an upcoming animated series on the streaming platform, marking Netflix's foray into real-world immersive engagement for younger audiences.

Also in April 2023, Samsung Electronics formed a strategic partnership with Qualcomm and Google to build an extended reality (XR) ecosystem. This collaboration aims to accelerate innovations in immersive technology, paving the way for more advanced and accessible VR experiences across entertainment venues worldwide.
