The ArmoGear Laser Battle laser tag set is a sophisticated two or four-player home laser tag set that comes with wireless infrared blasters and small vests with targets.

In this review I am going to walk you through some of the top features, and I will share my personal thoughts on this product.

You can purchase the ArmoGear Laser Tag set on Amazon.

Owned by US-based toy company NessToy, ArmoGear Laser Battle is an exciting laser tag set that includes fancy looking laser tag guns and small vests that serve as targets.

The blasters are rich in features and also come with special light and sound effects. Note that the vests are in fact optional, so you can play laser tag without wearing them, as the guns themselves also have target sensors.

In essence, the ArmoGear laser tag guns aren’t much different from most other models you find online. They have a very similar design, and the features are also almost identical. They’re essentially all a spin-off of the once popular Call of Life laser tag set.

What sets ArmoGear apart from a lot of the other sets is that their blasters come with these small vests. Now, if you know me, I’m not a huge fan of playing laser tag with vests, but I must say that the ArmoGear vests are pretty cool, and I think kids in particular will find them fun to play with.

ArmoGear Laser Battle is available as a 2-player pack and as a 4-player pack.

Let’s go through some of the better features of ArmoGear infrared laser tag set.

1. Different Weapon Modes With Sound Effects

Perhaps the best feature of this laser tag set is that you can use the guns in different weapon modes:

• Pistol
• Shotgun
• Machine gun
• Rocket

Each weapon mode comes with its own ammunition levels and total amount of shots you can fire at once.

How much damage you can do to your opponent in the form of stealing lives is different for each setting as well. Basically, the heavier your weapon mode, the more damage you can cause, but the less ammunition you have available.

This makes choosing the right weapon mode a bit more strategic. You can change this setting during play as many times as you like, but you will have to reload each time you change the weapon mode.

What’s great is that the sound effects include a voice-over, and that voice will tell you which weapon mode you’re using, how much ammunition you have left, and much more.

Where sound effects with some laser tag products can sometimes be considered a bit annoying, the sound effects with ArmoGear are actually pretty cool and value adding.

2. Multi-Player Capability

Another excellent feature of ArmoGear is that it allows you to play with four different teams, each with their own identifying color.

This also means that you can add more ArmoGear laser tag guns to a battle and all guns will work nicely together. In other words, if you have eight players lined up, you can purchase eight blasters, and everyone can play.

To select the team you’re going to play with, simply keep pressing the little button on the side of the blaster above the weapon mode button until your preferred team is selected.

3. Invisibility Mode and Night Vision Flashlight

In addition to the wireless vests, there are two more features that set ArmoGear apart from most other brands and home laser tag sets. Both invisibility mode and night vision flashlight are pretty cool features that do add value.

Invisibility mode is exactly that. It’s a feature that allows you to turn the lights on your gun and vest off, so you can try to hide your location. When used, you will remain invisible for 15 seconds. You also light up right away after getting hit by the enemy.

The night vision flashlight is useful when playing in a dark environment. Using this feature generates a light stream from the front of the blaster, which helps you navigate better in the dark.

Check on Amazon

Although not fully unique in the market, ArmoGear offers a home laser tag set that will excite kids as well as adults, with a great set of features and special sound effects.

As I mentioned, for me personally the vests aren’t necessary, but I can definitely see how others, especially kids, will appreciate wearing ArmoGear vests during laser tag battles.

Summary:	The ArmoGear Laser Battle set is a sophisticated home laser tag set using wireless infrared blasters and vests. Feature-wise, they aren’t much different from most other laser tag sets you can find online, but the extra vests and invisibility mode are a fun addition.
