Virtual Game

What Virtual Game does

Virtual Game is a privately held French VR entertainment and training operator headquartered in Crévin (near Rennes, Brittany), founded in concept in 2015 and opened commercially in July 2017 by co-founders Nicolas and Sébastien Fort. The company operates a single primary showroom inside the Kampus 137 multi-activity leisure park, offering three consumer leisure lines — Roomscale VR Games (46–51 titles, ages 8+), Escape Game VR (21 scenarios including licensed Ubisoft titles), and Driving Simulators (100+ cars and circuits, 1–4 players) — priced from €9 to €30 per session. Enterprise revenue comes from corporate events and team building, plus two Qualiopi-certified VR training programs (first aid and fire safety) delivered either on-site at client premises across Ille-et-Vilaine and Brittany or at the Crévin venue, using proprietary connected mannequins and fire extinguishers supplied by partner Un Seul Geste.

The technology stack combines third-party VR hardware — HTC Vive Focus 3 headsets, Oculus-compatible setups, and the Virtuix Omni omnidirectional treadmill (acquired under the first global commercial agreement for public use) — with a curated catalogue of third-party game content from Ubisoft, Arvi, Incarna, Délusion, and Vrilliant. The company's main technical differentiators are integration-layer innovations: connected training devices that feed sensor data into the VR experience for realistic fire and first-aid simulation, plus a patented connected fire extinguisher and connected mannequins with CPR pressure detection. Go-to-market is dual-track: direct-to-consumer online reservations via the Kampus 137 Qweekle booking platform plus walk-in traffic, and a B2B motion driven by enterprise contact forms, Calendly discovery calls, and on-site training delivery. Ancillary revenue includes electronic gift cards (€30–€300).

Business model mechanics are predominantly transactional and per-session, with reduced morning rates used as a demand-levelling tool. The customer base spans families and tourist groups on the leisure side, and a regional roster of enterprise logos (Carrefour, Decathlon, Leroy Merlin, Crédit Agricole, Stade Rennais FC, Brit Hotel, Rennes Métropole, A2COM, ARTWAÏ) on the B2B side. The company has 1–10 employees, no disclosed external funding, and relies on its founders and a certified trainer (Stéphanie Lemoine) for operations.
