> Looking for a holiday-break activity in Rocklin, Roseville, or Sacramento that both an 8-year-old and a teenager (plus parents and grandparents) can actually play together? Jumanji: The Lost Levels opens December 4, 2026 at Nexus Lounge & VR for ages 8+ — here is why it is the top family holiday-break pick in Placer County.

Every school break in **Rocklin, Roseville, Folsom, and Greater Sacramento** brings parents back to the same holiday-break dilemma: *Where can you take the whole family indoors when you have an 8- or 9-year-old, an older tween or teen sibling, and parents who want to do more than sit on a bench scrolling their phones?*

      Starting **Friday, December 4, 2026**, that question has a brand-new answer right off Highway 65 at Blue Oaks Blvd in Rocklin. ***Jumanji: The Lost Levels***—the blockbuster free-roam virtual reality adventure created by **Zero Latency VR in partnership with Sony Pictures**—officially opens at [Nexus Lounge & VR](/experiences), and it is our first flagship Zero Latency adventure designed for **players ages 8 and up (8+)**.

## 1. Why the Ages 8+ Rating Is a Game-Changer for Rocklin & Roseville Families

      Until now, families with elementary-school kids often had to split up when visiting VR centers because intense sci-fi and zombie survival shooters require players to be 13 or older. With ***Jumanji: The Lost Levels* welcoming adventurers ages 8+**, the entire family can finally step into the same arena together.

      Here is how our updated Zero Latency free-roam VR age guide works across Nexus Lounge & VR so you can pick the right experience for every child:

        - **Ages 8+ — *Jumanji: The Lost Levels*:** Cinematic jungle teamwork, canyon crossings, ancient temple puzzles, and family-friendly action for up to 8 players at once.

        - **Ages 10+ — *Singularity*:** A family-friendly sci-fi adventure battling rogue robots aboard a space station.

        - **Ages 13+ — Rest of Zero Latency VR Lineup:** High-intensity titles for teens and adults, including *Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine VR*, *Outbreak*, *Far Cry VR*, *Undead Arena*, *Sol Raiders*, and *Haunted*.

## 2. Up to 8 Family Members in One Untethered Arena (No Backpacks, No Wires)

      When you book a session of *Jumanji: The Lost Levels*, you aren't standing in separate booths or tethered to cables. Up to **8 players**—kids, siblings, cousins, parents, and visiting holiday relatives—walk onto our **1,500 sq ft Zero Latency free-roam arena floor** at the exact same time.

        - **Lightweight, Kid-Friendly Gen 3 Headsets:** Zero Latency's latest wireless headsets have no heavy computer backpacks and adjust comfortably to fit 8-year-olds and adults alike.

        - **Natural Walking Means No Motion Sickness:** Because your real-life steps match your movement inside the Jumanji jungle 1:1, both first-time kids and grandparents feel grounded from the first minute.

        - **Built for Co-Op Family Teamwork:** Just like the movies, nobody clears Jumanji solo. Kids and parents have to call out hazards, solve environmental puzzles together, and share laughs when someone triggers a jungle trap.

## 3. What Non-Playing Parents & Grandparents Do: 85-Inch Live Spectator Screens + Bar & Cafe

      Holiday break often means grandparents, aunts, uncles, or younger siblings are tagging along. Even family members who choose not to put on a headset get a front-row seat inside our 6,400 sq ft venue:

        - **Live Action on 85-Inch Lounge TVs:** Watch your kids' and spouse's live in-game point of view streamed in real time to giant 85-inch screens right in the main lounge.

        - **Food & Drinks for Every Age:** Refuel before or after your session at our [Bar & Cafe](/cafe) with artisan pizzas, beef sliders, wings, loaded nachos, dirty sodas, espresso drinks, and—for parents 21+—local craft beer, Cabernet Sauvignon, Zinfandel, Pinot Grigio, and hard seltzers.

        - **Minutes from Roseville Holiday Shopping & Cinemark Theaters:** Located at **6661 Blue Oaks Blvd, Suite 1, Rocklin, CA 95765** (with free parking right out front), we are less than 10 minutes from Westfield Galleria at Roseville and local movie theaters—making it easy to pair a Jumanji movie outing with stepping inside the game itself. Heading to the theater? Check out our [Jumanji VIP Theater Pass page](/jumanji).

      Parents and family members can watch the Jumanji VR session live on 85-inch screens in the Nexus Lounge while enjoying food and drinks
