Bridging the Gap Between Screens and Sunshine

The 2026 report addresses the primary challenge facing modern operators: how to engage a generation glued to devices. By leveraging pop-culture trends—such as the "collection mechanics" found in Fortnite and the team-based intensity of Counter-Strike 2—Battlefield Sports has engineered a system that delivers the thrill of a video game without the screen.

"We take the excitement of a video game and bring it to life," says Nicole Lander, Co-Founder of Battlefield Sports. "At our partner venues, you don't just watch the action; you are the action".

The report includes case studies and a custom Games Workshop project. In-depth case studies include the Salvation Army, the Gold Coast tourist park, Thunderbird Park, the Scouts Adventure Park, summer camps in the USA, and more.

There is also a featured case study on Carnival Cruises.

New Market Research & Anecdotal Evidence

The report also examines the rise of gaming.

Key Insights from the 2026 Report:

The Rise of "Green Time": Families and educators are increasingly prioritizing safe, social, and healthy outdoor activities over sedentary screen time.
Scalability & Staff Efficiency: Modern "plug-and-play" technology allows operators to run massive events—theoretically catering to up to 8,000 players—with fewer staff members and minimal training.
Turnkey Flexibility: Unlike traditional indoor arenas, 2026 laser tag is 100% mobile and requires no Wi-Fi or internet connection, allowing for immersive gameplay in environments ranging from dense woodlands to grand halls.
Proven ROI: Case studies in the report demonstrate significant success, including the Salvation Army engaging over 50,000 participants and a tourist park increasing revenue by 16.8% year-on-year after adding its laser tag attraction.

“The laser tag industry is undergoing significant transformations, sparking increased investment and ambitious goals among Battlefield Operators and adventure entrepreneurs,” says Nicole Lander, Chief Fun Officer of Battlefield Sports.

"People say there's a renaissance taking place in television or radio. I say it is not really a golden age per se in those fields. But it's a golden age of storytelling. Stories are the way that we as humans process and make sense of the world. And that's gone unchanged for centuries. But what is happening now is that the tools to create stories are exploding. I really this next paradigm shift is one of the age of immersion. The age when people are the heroes of their own adventures," said Charlie Melcher, Founder of FOST.org.

Built for Leaders, Not Amateurs

The report emphasizes that commercial laser tag is a "strategic tool," not a toy. Battlefield Sports’ patented SATR3 technology provides real-time hit feedback and optical precision that "crushes" industry standards, offering a competitive edge for high-impact operations.

"True business resilience is built on gear that doesn't just work—it lasts," the report notes, highlighting operators who have utilized the same fleet of equipment for over 20 years.
