Paris, France / New York, NY: Today, Immersive entertainment pioneer Excurio announces LBXR Pulse, a proprietary large-scale VR system that redefines how shared immersive experiences are created, managed, and operated. The platform represents a major technological breakthrough—making free-roam, multi-user virtual reality scalable, profitable, and accessible to mass audiences for the first time.
Purpose-built for collective exploration and storytelling, LBXR Pulse delivers three breakthroughs that elevate immersive entertainment to a new standard and address the challenges that have long constrained the VR entertainment sector: low throughput, rigid space design, and limited content rotation.
First, it achieves unprecedented throughput, hosting over 130 participants simultaneously – ten times the capacity of traditional VR systems and a world record for free-roaming VR – making high-quality, shared VR economically viable at scale. Second, its multi-content management system allows multiple experiences to run in parallel within the same physical space, enabling audiences to choose from several adventures at once and giving operators the flexibility and revenue potential of a cinema multiplex in a single room. Finally, its adaptive spatial design technology allows installations in irregular or historically significant spaces—such as domes, museums, or venues with architectural constraints—without requiring extensive on-site testing phases.
“With LBXR Pulse, we’re moving VR beyond a niche, craft-based model and into a scalable, industrial-grade platform. We’re delivering the reliability and durability required for high-volume, intensive use. This is the missing piece that allows operators to run sustainable businesses and gives creators the freedom to reach mainstream audiences without technical barriers,” said Fabien Barati, CEO and co-founder of Excurio.
Beyond these architectural and operational advances, the platform unifies content creation APIs, deployment pipelines, and live operational control systems into a single, integrated standard, accelerating VR production and enabling real-time optimization of user flows, device networks, and venue configurations. Once content is made compatible with this unified standard, studios automatically unlock a suite of proprietary features, including:
Smart Guiding System – Revolutionary navigation software that intuitively guides visitors through the experience and venue.
Real-Time Monitoring – Tools to supervise operations, manage hardware, and track visitor flow and performance live.
User Customization – Avatars, language settings, and personal preferences that make each journey uniquely tailored.
Accessibility for All – Full inclusivity for participants with disabilities, ensuring safe and seamless participation.
Statistics and Analytics – Access to in-depth metrics on attendance, performance, and audience engagement.
Create & Sync Groups – Tools that let groups of friends or families experience adventures together in perfect sync.
Multilingual Capabilities – Support for multiple languages during both content creation and live operation.
For creators, LBXR Pulse also offers a comprehensive creation toolkit to ensure content compatibility and streamline production with specialized tools integrated into major 3D editing software. It will also be possible to connect directly with Excurio’s global network of 45+ venues—the largest and most frequented network of VR destinations worldwide.
Already powering Excurio’s six acclaimed Immersive Expeditions (The Secret of the Pyramidi Builders, The Last Stronghold, Horizon of Khufu, Life Chronicles, Tonight with the Impressionists, Paris 1874, and Eternal Notre-Dame), LBXR Pulse has become the foundation for large-scale virtual storytelling. Developed in collaboration with world-renowned institutions, such as the Musée d’Orsay, and leading experts, including Peter Der Manuelian, Head of Egyptology at Harvard University, the platform currently operates in 45 venues across 16 countries, welcoming over 4 million visitors to date. These signature productions exemplify Excurio’s ability to merge historical storytelling, education, and entertainment into visually stunning, emotionally resonant virtual worlds.

“We are very proud to open our platform today and hope that studios, creators, and anyone who loves to invent and tell extraordinary stories—from the pyramids of Egypt to the Impressionists to lost worlds—will embrace our technological solution to create new immersive narratives and transport hundreds of thousands of viewers,” said Emmanuel Guerriero, president and co-founder of Excurio.
LBXR Pulse not only powers Excurio’s own productions but is now available to external studios and IP holders, transforming the company from a content creator into a global platform and distribution network for immersive entertainment.
Recognized by Fast Company as one of the Top 3 most Innovative Augmented and Virtual Reality Companies of 2025, Excurio and LBXR Pulse are redefining what’s possible in virtual storytelling and setting a new global standard for large-scale immersive VR – making immersive exploration as social, intuitive, and routine as going to the movies.
