How Many People Have Tried Virtual Reality? What the Data Says (And Why You Should Try It Too)

Virtual reality isn’t just for techies or gamers anymore. In fact, over 1 in 4 U.S. adults (27%) have already tried VR—and those numbers are rising fast, especially among younger generations.

Whether you’re exploring distant worlds or battling zombies, virtual reality is changing how we play, learn, and connect. And here in Cocoa Beach, you can step into a fully immersive, free-roam VR experience without needing a headset at home.

🚀 VR by the Numbers

• 27% of adults in the U.S. have used a VR headset.

• Among Gen Z and Millennials, that number climbs to over 30%.

• The location-based VR industry is projected to grow to $36.5 billion by 2034 — up from $5.9 billion in 2025.

More people are choosing VR arcades, free-roam setups, and immersive group experiences instead of traditional arcades or movie nights.

🧭 What Is Free-Roam VR?

Unlike VR at home, free-roam VR lets you walk around in a real-world space while seeing a virtual world through your headset. It’s more social, more active, and perfect for families, groups, or first-timers.
