Built with a metal body, our Royale Taggers, also known as Scorpions, are designed for teens & adults looking for a more immersive experience.

The weight depends on the tagger model you choose. Our taggers range from approximately 1.6 kg to 2.2 kg.
Fun, Striker and Awesome Taggers are made from lightweight, durable polycarbonate. Royale Taggers have a metal body and may feel heavier in the hands.
The range of our laser taggers varies depending on the model and playing conditions.
Cloudier conditions and twilight can extend the range even further. Indoors, the range is more than enough for exciting games, and the taggers can be switched to indoor mode to help reduce infrared bounce.
Your taggers arrive pre-set with software settings to make getting started easy.
Depending on your package and controller options, game modes can include Team Elimination, Capture the Flag and other mission-style games.
Some packages also offer additional game modes and optional props, such as supply crates.

When you turn the key, the taggers will automatically power up with the correct team settings. Easy!
