These include Squid Game, Angry Birds, Shaun the Sheep, PAW Patrol, Ghostbusters, the Alien Aptitude Test and Ticket to Mars. All you do is enter a Gamebox, pop on a visor and use your body as the controller for the next 30 to 60 minutes!There’s something for everyone, from young adults and families to corporate groups and gamers.
Sydney’s Immersive Gamebox is a first for Australia
Richard Dilly, General Manager at Merlin Entertainments, says, “Ahead of the summer holidays, we’re thrilled to officially open Australia’s first Immersive Gamebox experience in Darling Harbour. We have loved watching the guests explore the new gaming spaces. From a family day out to date night and groups of friends looking for a unique activity in the heart of the city, each game offers a fun and exciting new challenge. I’ve given them all a go, and my favourite is definitely Squid Game. They’re not easy either, so good luck!”
Will Dean, CEO and Co-founder of Immersive Gamebox says, “We are incredibly excited to be launching our first venue in Australia. We’re thrilled to bring friends, families, and coworkers together in a gaming format that transcends borders. By collaborating with the world’s top content studios, we’ve curated adventures that place connection and collaboration at their heart. Australia, brace yourself for an extraordinary journey into a realm where entertainment meets innovation. Our immersive gaming experience is set to redefine the Australian entertainment landscape.”
