6 Player Multiplayer Games Help!

KatePlayItVR

Having only opened a couple of weeks ago we are still learning about all the games. We have a group booking for 6 on 8th March. Are there any multiplayer games for 13/14 year olds that all six can play, either 3 vs 3 or 6 co-op on SpringboardVR commercial licensing. Many thanks, Kate

Cowbots vs. Aliens, Skyfront, AFTER-H (if you have Vive's), Smashbox Arena

Arrowborn, I am fascinated by this game. It has options to add additional bots so you can make your teams 5 v 5 even with 2 players. The visual are superb. Highly recommended.

Hi Dora, we have Arrowborn already, but I'm clearly not that familiar with it. Will have another look. Thank you!

Don't you feel Motion Sickness with Arrowborn (particularly during the high jumps) ? I would personnally not propose it. For 6 players, I propose Smashbox (indeed, hard to put everybody in the game) or Rec Room.

As long as all the computers are on the same server it works great!

Requires a separate licensing agreement, but the best game by far for this is Tower Tag. Its made for arcades, is really easy to set up and run, is reliable, can launch from Springboard, requires only one controller, and support BHaptics vests which really makes the game more premium. Has many levels, two game modes, and will be having 8 players soon. There is a worldwide tournament league and its licensed by Sega overseas. We have 12 stations running it almost continuously, plus Springboard alongside it.

Hey Colin, we were looking at this game ourselves and have been waiting to hear back from the devs. WE think we should be moving away from the content readily available at home and more towards the premium built for LBE content. How much do they charge for Tower Tag? Is is per station or per minute?

Cowbots and Aliens, Skyfront. Highly recommend both those two, every party has loved them and they're easy to setup. If you add "-arcade" to the launch settings in Skyfront it will ask players to input their name before starting, really useful.

Rec Room's paintball and laser tag is another popular option (and the license is still free) but you've got to jump through a lot of hoops to get the game setup right to make it easier for players to join each other (but you only have to do it once, here's a link to my instructions: https://features.springboardvr.com/feature-requests/p/let-players-find-each-other-easier-in-multiplayer-games).

Smashbox Arena is a great game especially for six players, but getting people joined up in multiplayer is an absolute nightmare.

Tower Tag Is $1,500 e per stations.

Hi Eric,

Tower Tag is not per minute, you have to buy an annual license. For us, as it's easily or most popular game, this works out better. I can't tell you the pricing as it's all individual depending on how many etc, plus we are now dealers in the UK for it, as I wanted that 😀.

Thanks Everyone - there have been some great suggestions and advice here!

Hey Kate, good luck with the party. We have been open about 7 weeks, and have had a few parties and corporate days. Have learnt more each time, but I reccomend getting 5 friends together and play what ever multiplayer to ensure it works fine. Dont wait until the morning of the party.

We had a party of 13 on Sat.. and with 6 stations we set up each space with a different experience. Couple of rollercoaster. Beatsaber..the lab etc.

Was our most successful group yet with the boys getting lots of experienced and the mum was stoked, no trying to get people into multiplayer which can be a pain..

Anyway.. good luck
