Hologate sets new VR benchmarks

With the deployment of more than 150 active locations spanning across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and the Asia-Pacific region in just under one year, Hologate has already reached more than 1,000,000 players worldwide. Key to this explosive growth is the distinctive design, compact dimensions, and cutting-edge VR multiplayer technology. Complemented with multi-genre, age agnostic, exclusive content, Hologate hit the sweet spot to help them painlessly foray into the world of virtual reality.

At this year’s IAAPA show, Hologate introduced an extensive line-up of hardware enhancements and new game titles. These included newly developed in-house properties, Zombyte, a photorealistic sci-fi zombie shooter, and Groove Guardians, a rhythm action game featuring music tracks and full-body gameplay.

In addition to their in-house properties, Hologate revealed exciting partnerships with popular AAA brands in both the gaming and movie industry to open up the platform for a premium selection of third party content.

Hologate has joined forces with Sony Pictures VR and Rovio Entertainment Corp. to bring “The Angry Birds Movie 2” into the world of location based virtual reality in Summer 2019. Players must flock together as angry birds and take on those pesky pigs, all in virtual reality.

The legendary anti-war novel and German’s most thrilling and successful film of all time, “Das Boot” will be released as a thrilling VR game experience on Hologate in parallel with the upcoming “Das Boot” TV series reboot. In this immersive pressure-filled scenario, four players will have no other choice than to work hand-in-hand to survive…or sink into the dark depths of the sea.

Hologate has also partnered with Wargaming, the creator of the multiplayer online game, “World of Tanks,” to now introduce “World of Tanks VR” on the Hologate location-based VR platform. The immersive first-person action lets players manoeuvre through highly detailed terrain with the challenging mission to be the last tank standing.
