What is the gaming vest?
The gaming vest is a unique gaming accessory designed to replicate shots, kicks, punches, and G-Forces that your character experiences in the game. You can find out more by visiting our 'What are gaming vests?' page.
How does it work?
The gaming vest is designed to look and be worn like a bullet-proof vest. It has 8 pockets of air (4 on the chest and 4 on the back), when your game character receives an impact in the game you will feel the impact in the same place as the character was hit.
This is because one or more of the 8 air pockets will quickly expand and give you a gentle flick. You can read more on our 'How gaming vests work' page.

Does it hurt?
No the gaming vest is not painful to use and is therefore perfectly safe for children to wear. You can of course tighten or loosen the vest to increase or decrease the intensity and you can always wear an extra thick top in the unlikely event you find it uncomfortable.
Will it work on my Playstation/Wii/XBox/other console?
At the moment the gaming vest is only compatible with PC. However, the manufacturers of the vest, TN Games, are working on compatibility with consoles.
There is no expected launch date for a console vest yet but when one is available you will be able to upgrade your PC gaming vest to work on consoles so you will not need to buy more than one vest.
