Sandbox VR Miami invites groups of guests to walk into an unrivalled futuristic experience. Once through the doors of the venue, guests will be hit with a fully immersive environment, diving into a high-energy 'social space.' Players will run the full competitive gamut of adrenaline-fueled emotions, where they can enter worlds of daring adventures.

Sandbox VR Miami will be among one of the first locations in the USA where guests are invited to socialize in comfort as they watch back over their game-playing highlights, while they can enjoy mocktails and an extensive food menu. The drinks bar will be operated by Florida's first permanent robotic bartender, Toni, serving up to 70 drinks per hour, performing complex motions such as shaking, stirring and muddling. Toni delivers a totally unique mocktail and curated coffee experience, with cocktails coming soon. "The venue will be working with some exciting Miami-based food brands providing guests with a one-stop destination to enjoy the full entertainment experience with food options," said Amit Ahluwalia, President of Solis Entertainment LLC & Solis Group of Industries. "After the experience, participants can view footage of their game with their team and celebrate their gaming success."

Sandbox VR is redefining group entertainment with immersive experiences that transform any outing into lasting memories. Built by a team of veteran developers from EA, Sony, and Ubisoft, Sandbox VR delivers full-body immersion through exclusive content and original experiences, including Stranger Things: Catalyst, in collaboration with Netflix, and the new Age of Dinosaurs experience in partnership with the Natural History Museum of London and leading dinosaur experts.

The new Miami location, located in the heart of the Wynwood neighborhood, is 7,000 square feet of entertainment space featuring five private rooms for virtual reality gameplay, where groups of up to six guests suit up with headsets, haptic vests, and motion sensors for full-body immersion. Together with friends, family or co-workers, players are equipped with a haptic vest, motion sensors on their wrists and ankles, and cutting-edge VIVE Focus 3 headsets, which combine outstanding visuals with a smarter ergonomic design, superior audio and next level inside-out tracking and controllers. This technology allows players to see and physically interact with one another while feeling like they are in the middle of an action movie, with the heightened emotions that come from not just watching a film, but from actually becoming the stars of the action.
