RESORTS WORLD GENTING AND THE VOID UNVEILS FIRST AND BIGGEST LOCATION-BASED HYPER-REALITY EXPERIENCE CENTER OF ITS KIND IN ASIA

Resorts World Genting and The VOID Unveils First and Biggest Location-based Hyper-reality Experience Center of its Kind in Asia

The highly anticipated hyper reality experience that features cutting-edge technology and world-class content was unveiled today at the new fully immersive experience center The VOID which spans nearly 7000 square feet at Skytropolis Funland, Resorts World Genting, Malaysia.  It is the biggest centre out of North America and the first and biggest in Asia.

Guests from across the region visiting the iconic resort, sitting high in the 130 million-year-old jungle will be able to enjoy The VOID’s ground-breaking entertainment for the first time in Asia. The attendees were awed by the arrival of stormtroopers from a galaxy far, far away who were on hand for the opening. The VOID opened to the public on 6th December after an exclusive preview for partners of Resorts World Genting from 1-5 December.

Compared with traditional location-based VR, The VOID hyper-reality experience brings a completely new immersive experience. The VOID uses custom VR technology along with physical stages to create immersive experiences that inspire exploration and engagement. And its proprietary designed equipment melds the physical and digital worlds through head-mounted displays (HMDs), backtopTM computers and haptic vests, allowing sensory effects to be felt from multiple points using haptic feedback, that place visitors inside impossible worlds.

The VOID’s hyper-reality experience center effortlessly switches between different titles to bring two of most iconic experiences available at The VOID to guests:

Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire will take guests through a breath-taking journey where guests will feel the impact of blaster bolts, smell smoke from the surrounding environment, push buttons to solve an interactive puzzle to escape enemies, all while coordinating directly with their unit in real time through the blended virtual and physical world.

Ralph Breaks VR, an original hyper-reality experience created by ILMxLAB and The VOID in collaboration with Walt Disney Animation Studios, based on their latest hit film Ralph Breaks the Internet. In Ralph Breaks VR, guests will sneak onto the internet disguised as netizens to play the newest, coolest video game ever. Guests will shoot retro alien spaceships, squash pixel bugs, and fend off hordes of bunnies, and kitties in the Pancake Milkshake Diner while they team up with Ralph and Vanellope in the race against time to see who can rack up the highest score! It's all fun and games until an evil security system shows up and threatens to take everyone offline...permanently.
