Battlefield Colorado

Battlefield Colorado is located in the northwest part of Colorado Springs, right next to SoccerHaus near the intersection of Centennial Blvd and Garden of the Gods Road.

Where Call of Duty Meets the Outdoors

Battlefield Colorado is not your average laser tag arena. It is an outdoor urban battlefield that spans the size of a full city block, designed to bring first-person shooter video games like Call of Duty, Halo, and Battlefield to life in the real world. Players are split into two teams and compete in a series of combat-style adventure missions that blend strategy, teamwork, and plenty of sprinting. The equipment is state-of-the-art military-style laser tag gear — realistic-looking rifles with head and gun sensors, no heavy vests, no goggles, and no paint. Just pure, adrenaline-packed gameplay. The field itself is packed with authentic cover: wooden structures, army trucks, shipping crates, barrels, and barricades. The layout encourages both aggressive run-and-gun tactics and careful sniper play. There is no prior experience necessary, so beginners and seasoned players alike find themselves immersed within minutes. The outdoor setting also means fresh mountain air and, depending on the time of day, the challenge of playing as the sun goes down.

Eight Missions, Endless Replayability

One of the standout features of Battlefield Colorado is the variety of game scenarios. The club offers a rotating selection of eight distinct missions, each with its own objectives and rules. Popular modes include Capture the Flag, Defuse the Bomb, Protect the President, and Survival. There are also special themed events like Zombie Extraction and Contagion missions that run during the Halloween season. Each session typically includes multiple rounds with different objectives, so no two visits feel the same. The games are guided by on-field referees — referred to by regulars as "Papi," "Proxy," "Killroy," and "The Sledge" — who keep the action moving, enforce rules, and make sure everyone is having a great time. The referees are known for being energetic, positive, and skilled at balancing teams so that matches stay competitive. A typical open play session runs about 90 minutes to two hours and includes anywhere from six to nine individual games, depending on group size and pace.

Built for Birthdays, Corporate Battles, and Family Fun

Battlefield Colorado is a natural fit for a wide range of group events. Birthday parties are especially popular here — the outdoor, active format works well for kids aged 7 and up, and the staff handles all the equipment and coordination so parents can relax and join the fun. Corporate team-building groups also find the venue effective: the missions require real communication, role assignment, and strategic thinking, making it a memorable alternative to a conference room. Youth groups, church groups, bachelor parties, and family reunions are all common bookings. The club can accommodate groups of 10 to 40 players in a single session. For smaller parties, open play sessions allow individuals and small groups to sign up and be placed on teams with other guests. Military discounts are available, which is a nice touch given the Colorado Springs community's strong ties to the armed forces.

The Crew Behind the Guns

The staff at Battlefield Colorado consistently earns high marks from visitors. Reviews frequently mention the friendliness, professionalism, and enthusiasm of the team. The operation appears to be family-run, with a father-and-son dynamic at the core. The referees take time to explain the rules clearly, help younger or first-time players feel comfortable, and keep the energy high throughout the session. Many reviewers note that the staff goes out of their way to make sure everyone — from kids to grandparents — feels included and has a good time. The owners are also responsive and engaged, personally replying to reviews on TripAdvisor and Facebook, and working with groups that run into travel delays or need flexible scheduling. That level of personal attention is rare and adds a lot to the overall experience.

More Than Just a Game

While Battlefield Colorado does not have an on-site restaurant or banquet hall, the venue offers a few thoughtful extras. Free bottled water is available at each team's base during games — a welcome touch on hot Colorado afternoons. There is also an option to upgrade your weapon for a more powerful or accurate laser gun, available on a first-come, first-served basis. The property has free parking, and there are several quick-service restaurants within walking distance, including Panda Express, Jersey Mike's, and Marco's Pizza. The club operates exclusively by reservation, so booking ahead is required. The outdoor setting means sessions run weather-permitting, but the Colorado Springs climate allows for year-round play on most days. For those looking for a truly unique way to spend time with friends, family, or coworkers, Battlefield Colorado delivers an experience that is far removed from the typical indoor laser tag arena.
