Vancouver: Virtual Reality by Zero Latency – Singularity 12+

Imagine stepping into a science fiction universe where you’re fighting off killer robots in space, wandering through narrow corridors, and floating in zero gravity. That’s what you get at Zero Latency’s VR experience called Singularity in Vancouver.
