ParadropVR, is spreading its global canopy and has announced it will open in Sprockets Fun Foundry, near Mount Rushmore, US later in 2022.
The market-leading, operatorless, multi-player virtual reality flying experience will open in South Dakota, which will be its first location in America. ParadropVR combines motion-based hardware and exciting game content to create a world-class attraction with a proven ROI.
Matt Wells, CEO of Frontgrid, the creators of ParadropVR said: “It’s a particularly exciting installation for us as it represents our first location in the USA. We think the product is very suited to the US market, as it leads the way in terms of competitive socialising. In America the entertainment industry is particularly strong, so consumers are really savvy and are looking for the next best thing to impress them. ParadropVR Pod really is an exhilarating experience which offers the cutting edge in terms of virtual reality and esports experiences.”
Danny Pritchard, Attractions Manager at Sprockets Fun Foundry said: “We chose ParadropVR Pod as a stand-out VR product which we think our customers are going to be excited by and come back again and again to fly. There literally is nothing else like it in the USA at the moment. So, we are particularly excited to have it at Sprockets Fun Foundry. It’s been really positive of late to see recovery post-Covid in the US, regarding footfall coming back to attractions. We expect Sprockets Fun Foundry and ParadropVR to both have a very welcomed reception from families looking to get out of the house and try something new.”
