More than 500 HTC Vive headsets will roll out to114 locationsin the US and Canada as part of an enterprisingness to make virtual reality more available to consumers . It ’s also obviously an campaign to add up something new to Dave and Buster’svolatilebusiness .

There ’s no Word of God if there will be a drink limit for adults who desire to use the sickness - inducing machines . But if not , there for certain will be after the initial test phase .
