Ask our manager — we’ll answer everything about the VR franchise.

+1 (804) 335-08-69
01 How quickly can I open an arena?

In 1–1.5 months. The speed depends on the location: renovation takes about a month, while equipment setup and staff training take about a week. We install and configure the equipment itself within 2–3 days.

02 How much investment is required to start?

It depends on the size of your city and the format. A VR Club starts from $60,000 and a VR Arena from $80,000. Leave a request and we will tailor the terms to your city and budget.

03 What makes Another World different from competitors?

We develop our own team-based VR games — 15 games for different age groups and genres that attract a wide audience. Multi-level game design and split-zone mode help partners earn more from every square foot. And we support partners from the day the contract is signed through every stage of development.

04 Do I need prior experience in the VR business?

No. Every partner gets access to our training platform with all the necessary information, and we hold regular online meetings with partners for additional training and company updates.

05 What results do your partners achieve?

Results depend largely on the location and population of the city. For example, in a city with over 1 million people the revenue of a VR club can reach $15,000 per month, with a payback period starting from 15 months.*

06 Who is your target audience?

A broad audience from 6 to 99+ years old, so everyone finds a game they enjoy. A significant portion of bookings are birthday parties and corporate events — appealing to children, their parents, grandparents and beyond.

Our games run on standalone VR headsets — Meta Quest, Pico and HTC VIVE Focus — with our own device-management system. We help you choose and order the equipment and set it all up in 2–3 days.

A personal manager, marketing materials, technical support, an online knowledge base, regular online training, plus new games and updates. You also get a website with booking and an automated CRM.
