We Are VR Junkies
at heart

We love Virtual Reality. So much so, that we pioneered the first VR Arcade in the United States, and built the most robust CRM in the industry.  We're excited to continue supporting businesses with their commercial VR ventures with our latest offerings - arena-scale VR and custom VR arena fabrication.

The story of how we became industry-leaders in VR

From 8 years ago to today, take a trip down memory lane with us as we look back on the history of Private Label VR.

APRIL 2016

Josh and McKay, coworkers at an engineering firm, got their first taste of virtual reality when a friend let them try his HTC Vive and play The Brookhaven Experiment. From the first minute they were hooked, and they dreamed up an idea: a VR arcade where people can come and play VR without having to buy the expensive equipment themselves.

After countless hours coding a custom VR CRM software after work, VR Junkies was born. The first VR Arcade in the United States opened in June 2016 in Orem, Utah.

VR Junkies received local media attention for bringing Virtual Reality to the masses with its first commercial VR location.

Josh and McKay partnered with Fear Factory to create a unique VR haunted house experience with 4D effects - including effects with air, vibration, and sound.

January 2017

VR is a hot topic at CES. With the popularity of VR Junkies, we branched into white-labeling and formed Private Label VR. We also showcased our haunted house experience at TransWorld's Halloween & Attractions Show.

Jan 2017 - Feb 2020

Business was booming. Other VR enthusiasts wanted to open their own arcades, and Private Label VR became franchised to locations all around the world, including Hawaii and New Zealand.

FEBRUARY 2020

The entire world stopped in its tracks with a global pandemic. Businesses were forced to close as people were confined to their homes to control the spread of the virus. As a result, Private Label VR came to a standstill as did all location-based VR ventures.

APRIL 2021

Interest in VR skyrocketed, and with it a new surge of innovation in VR technology - including arena-scale VR systems. These systems have multiplayer capabilities and wireless headsets that allow players to roam freely in an open space as they interact with the virtual world.
