Neon-lit arcades, nostalgic trips down memory lane, all in a VR headset near you!
Watford, United Kingdom — April 25th, 2024 | Arcade Paradise VR, the highly anticipated VR adaptation of the console classic, is out now! Taking players on an empowering journey from virtual rags to arcade riches, they will transform the decrepit ‘King Wash’ Laundromat into a thriving arcade business! Alongside this, the ‘Out of this World’ Jukebox Expansion, featuring a whole host of tracks inspired by the 90’s era, is set to release later this year.
Under neon lights, players can immerse themselves in a world gone by as they step into a virtual reality like no other. Strapping on a headset will be like putting on a time machine, as they craft their very own arcade, chock full of titles that have been specifically created to be experienced in VR.
Arcade Paradise VR features 12 fully realised VR cabinets alongside 27 traditionally controlled games from the original release. From intense basketball action to games that will push players to the physical limit, Arcade Paradise VR will also include 6 new VR-specific titles – including the ‘Future Home: Enter Reality’ cabinet.

“We are absolutely thrilled to announce the launch of Arcade Paradise VR on Meta Quest,” said Andreas Firnigl, CEO and Game Director at Developer Nosebleed Interactive. “Arcade Paradise VR represents the culmination of our passion for pushing the boundaries of original games and showcasing what our talented development team can create. We’ve poured our hearts and souls into every aspect of the game, and we can’t wait for players to dive in and experience it for themselves”.
“We started our relationship with Nosebleed on the Switch version of Vostok Inc. They are a wild, creative bunch, and their values are similar to ours. In 2022 Arcade Paradise was released to critical acclaim, but the truth is we’d already started mapping out how to bring it to VR – it felt so right,” said Leo Zullo, Co-Founder and Managing Director of Publisher Wired Productions. “We’ve had a great campaign – we’ve seen creators and media love what we’ve shown so far and we can’t wait to celebrate with the team at Nosebleed come launch day!”
Arcade Paradise VR launches today at 6pm BST/10am PT, you can purchase the game here. For more information, visit the Wired Website, follow Arcade Paradise on Twitter / X, Wired Productions on Twitter / X, and Nosebleed Interactive on Twitter / X.
