1. PREMISES 

The first thing to consider is finding suitable premises. Here are some important characteristics to consider for a successful VR arena.

Required specifications:

A VR arena should have enough space to provide enough room for players to move around safely without hitting walls or each other. The space should also be large enough to allow for a comfortable and immersive experience for players.

We recommend:

For 4 players:

• Minimum 25 m² (about 250 ft²)
  

For 8 players:

• Minimum 50 m² (about 160 ft²)
  

For 16 players:

• Optimum 200 m² (about 2,150 ft²)

For 16+16 players:

• Optimum 600 m² (about 6,400 ft²)

Therefore, a minimum of 25 m² (about 250 ft²) is required. However, the larger your location, the more interesting and diverse your virtual world will be for players. Therefore, ideally, you will need premises of 250 m² (about 2,700 ft²) of gaming space plus a reception area.

The premise should be located in the places that have the largest passing trade traffic in city malls that you can find. Such places can vary depending on the specific mall and its layout, but usually the best places are Entertainment areas such as cinemas, gaming arcades, bowling alleys, trampoline attractions, and so on. Such places tend to attract a lot of foot traffic, particularly from families and young adults.
Overall, businesses that are located in high-traffic areas within malls or at Family entertainment centers are likely to benefit from increased visibility and foot traffic.
We recommend installing glass walls facing the walkway area, allowing passersby to see both the players and the TV screen displaying the current virtual world or game from the perspective of one of the players. 

A VR arena should have safety features in place, such as padded walls or floors, to prevent injuries in case a player falls or collides with an object while in the virtual environment.

Additionally, emergency exits should be clearly marked and easily accessible.
Ventilation.
VR experiences can be physically demanding and generate a lot of heat. Proper ventilation is important to ensure that players stay cool and comfortable while using the equipment.

Easy-to-Clean Surfaces.
Given that players will be moving around the space, the surfaces should be easy to clean and sanitize to maintain a hygienic environment.

Proper Lighting.
Lighting is important in a VR arena to help ensure that players can see their surroundings and avoid obstacles. The lighting should be bright enough to provide visibility but not too bright that it interferes with the VR experience.
