CZ Announces Partnership with AceVR and Introduces a CZ SHADOW 2–Inspired VR Controller

Česká zbrojovka a.s. announces a new partnership with Ace Virtual Shooting (AceVR), a U.S.-based technology company, resulting in an innovative virtual reality controller inspired by the legendary CZ SHADOW 2 sport pistol. The new solution brings the pistol’s characteristic ergonomics, precision, and competitive performance into a virtual reality environment.

“We are always looking for new ways to connect shooters with the CZ experience,” said Chris Sprangers, Director of Marketing for CZ-USA. “Partnering with AceVR allows us to bring the Shadow 2 into a completely new space—one that’s accessible, engaging, and rooted in skill development. It’s an exciting step forward for both brands.”

Designed to closely replicate the feel and handling of the CZ SHADOW 2, the AceVR controller delivers a highly realistic training and recreational shooting experience in virtual environments. It is intended for both experienced competitive shooters and beginners, offering a safe and dynamic way to build fundamental skills, improve reaction time, and enhance overall firearm handling.

The new product will also be showcased at the 2026 NRA Annual Meetings & Exhibits, taking place in April in Houston, Texas, USA, where visitors will have the opportunity to try it at the CZ booth. Attendees can take part in a high-score challenge and compete for exclusive prizes.
