VR ZONE SHINJUKU will also include a wide range of new VR activities where guests will be able to experience exploring a fantasy world on a winged bicycle, a horror-filled dinosaur survival run, and much more. Every activity is designed for guests to lose themselves in the immersive VR experience. Guests will also be able to enjoy a variety of non-VR activities, such as surviving a giant expanding balloon while in a locked cell, purchasing original souvenirs, and enjoy meals and activities in a virtually simulated resort themed dining space, making for a truly unique entertainment experience. Additionally, BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Inc. has teamed-up with the popular digital art group NAKED to develop projection mapping installations within and outside of the facility. The exterior will feature a projection of PAC-MAN among other images, while the inside will feature a ‘Centre Tree’ to be used as the interface for the facility which will allow guests to interact with the building itself through touch.
