From arcade specialist to consumer market
StrikerVR originally specialized in high-quality VR guns for arcades and VR arcades. The professional models, such as the Arena Infinity, cost at least $1,200 and offered extensive haptic effects such as realistic recoil.
The entry into the consumer market was made possible by an investment of four million US-Dollars. The first version for end consumers, the Mavrik-Pro, was initially released as a Developer Edition for just under $1.000. It had three haptic motors: a main "Thunder" recoil module for large explosions and two "Cricket" modules for finer haptic effects.
With the new Mavrik for Meta Quest 3, StrikerVR is now targeting a broader market for the first time. The pre-sale price of $499 is significantly lower than the company's previous professional models.
