About VRXtra Watford
VRXtra Watford is a family-friendly virtual reality playground, built for first-timers and seasoned gamers alike. Suit up for free-roam adventures, engross yourself in VR escape rooms (2–6 players, up to 60 minutes), or sample 60+ pick-up-and-play games in the Xtra Games library. Everything is clearly age-rated (minimum 7+), and the team are brilliant at matching experiences to your crew. Make it a full outing with the on-site café and handy VR Meal Deal that bundles gameplay with food. Parties and group events are catered for, just book your slot and step into another world.
Top Tip from the KidRated Team:
Book a multiplayer co-op/escape game so everyone’s in the same world, and keep under-10s to 15–20-minute bursts (VR can be intense). Arrive 10 minutes early to get headsets comfy.
