Level UP is a 12,000 square foot gaming lounge and bar inside MGM Grand on the South Strip. Beyond the VR arena, it's packed with pool tables, foosball, ping pong, Giant Pac-Man, Connect Four, arcade games, and big-screen TVs for live sports. The full bar serves cocktails, craft beer, and shots.
The VR arena offers three 30-minute team adventures: battling zombies, fighting rogue robots, and solving engineering puzzles on alien planets. It's a more casual atmosphere than dedicated VR venues — think gaming bar with a VR section. Live entertainment includes themed nights like 80s Night on Mondays and Latin Night on Saturdays. Great for a fun night out that mixes VR with drinks and games.
