Immersive Gamebox has announced two new franchise agreements, the first with Powerplay in Canada and a second with Nikito in France.
Lisa Paton, the COO and president of IGB said: “These franchise agreements are pivotal moments for our global expansion.
“Partnering with PowerPlay Canada and Nikito enables us to bring our immersive gaming experiences to new audiences while ensuring our content adapts to local cultures and preferences.”
The Canadian partnership has paved the way for the IGB’s entry into the North American nation, with the first amusement centre having already opened on December 9 in Calgary.
Powerplay’s sites will allow two to six players to play together in worlds like Squid Game, Ghostbusters and Angry Birds, and will feature touch screen walls, 3D motion tracking and projection mapping without the need for VR headsets.
Nikito has also teamed up with IGB, with its first site set to launch on December 14 in Rosny-sous-Boisin. The 100,000sq.ft site will contain four Gameboxes, with the games available in French to allow for a seamless experience for local players.
Hugo Perpere, CEO and founder of Nikito, said: “Partnering with Immersive Gamebox allows us to enhance our entertainment offerings with cutting-edge technology and interactive gaming that will captivate our visitors.
“We're excited to introduce this innovative concept to France and create unforgettable moments for our guests.”
