Jumanji: The Lost Levels is heading to Zero Latency as the first-ever fully hand-tracked experience

Zero Latency VR is launching Jumanji: The Lost Levels across its global VR arcade locations this December, marking the studio's first partnership with a film studio. The experience stands out as Zero Latency's inaugural fully hand-tracked venture, eliminating the need for traditional controllers and relying instead on gesture recognition to let players interact with the environment. This represents a significant technical shift for the VR arcade operator, which has previously relied on controller-based input for its immersive experiences.

The collaboration with Sony Pictures, first teased in February, underscores Hollywood's continued interest in translating established IP into VR arcade experiences rather than home-based content. For Zero Latency, the controllerless approach appears designed to streamline the player experience and reduce setup friction at commercial VR locations.
