The premise is this: Your team is trapped and bunkered in a fort, amidst the chaos of zombie outbreak. Will you survive until the rescuers come?
Find out with Zero Latency Singapore, a virtual reality gaming zone that has just opened its doors in Suntec City on Friday, Nov. 24.
It also happens to be Singapore's largest, with an area of 4,200 square feet — more than three five-room flats in size.

Unlike your standard first-person shooter games Left 4 Dead, for instance, where you play seated at a computer and toggle your mouse and keyboard, this provides a fully immersive environment where up to eight players can physically experience being characters in the same game.
Each participant wears a military backpack, Razer headphones, and a virtual reality (VR) headset, moving freely around the room to kill the zombies and rebuild forts if necessary.
And if you don't happen to enjoy fleeing zombies, two other games are currently available as part of their offering.

For a limited period, the company has an introductory price of S$59 per player — you can book a session here; just make sure everyone in your party is at least 13 years old.
