Remember once we very nearly passed out from exhaustion following a slightly short demo of Ubisoft’s nouveau laser tag setup? Well, judging from its appearance over on the FCC, it looks as if the RFID-packing Battle Tag is able to play. Unlike a number of our more fruitful dives into the commission’s archives, this one doesn’t uncover lots in regards to the product that we didn’t already know. Internal photos show an RFID reader, used to speak with amo packs for reloading, and an intensive examination of the sport’s user manual revealed the accompanying software is compatible with Windows only. So, no, we won’t be exposing any big secrets here, but for laser tag aficionados, whoever they’re, today is a great day. A Battle Tag setup for 2 is now available via Ubisoft for $130.
