Metaforce VR Arena Franchise

A subscription instead of royalties: no franchise fee and no share of your revenue. We develop the games and support our partners — you bring in the guests.

Apply now

The Metaforce VR arena franchise gives you a ready set of free-roam multiplayer VR games, adapted to the exact layout of your venue, for a flat subscription instead of royalties. There is no franchise fee, no share of your revenue and no marketing fee: you run the arena as your own business and keep what you earn.

What is the Metaforce VR arena franchise?

All Metaforce games are free-roam: players walk and run around the arena, and movement in the game matches their real movement. A game takes 4 to 20 players; how many play at once on your arena depends on its size. We develop every game ourselves instead of reselling off-the-shelf licences, and new maps or games arrive every 6 months.

Metaforce started in Yekaterinburg, Russia, where we still operate two arenas ourselves. Every update is tested on real guests before it reaches partners, so we know the economics from the inside, not just on paper. Today 30+ arenas in Russia, Kazakhstan, Israel and Slovakia run on Metaforce games, in cities from 20,000 residents upward.

The subscription is the only payment to Metaforce: from $4,990 for six months (taxes included). The venue, renovation and equipment are paid by the partner separately; the full breakdown is on the franchise cost page. Your payment to us stays the same whether you have a quiet month or a record one. See how this compares with a royalty model on our no-royalty franchise page.

What venue do you need for a VR arena?

Shopping malls, family entertainment centers and standalone venues all work. Besides the play area, plan a reception and a lounge where groups wait and celebrate between rounds. We rebuild the maps around the exact layout of your arena, so the game fits your space rather than the other way round. More on layouts in our VR arena design guide.
