Resort World Genting’s 400,000 square foot indoor entertainment space at the Genting Highlands Resort will soon be home to Malaysia’s first-ever ParadropVR installation, adventure entertainment specialist Frontgrid Ltd has announced.
Adrenaline-junkies of all ages will be able to experience the thrill of paragliding in a safe and fun environment when the immersive adventure attraction launches at Sky VR this autumn.
ParadropVRTM will be installed within Sky VR, a section of the park dedicated to showcasing the most exciting virtual reality games and immersive experiences from around the world. Resorts World Genting has cherry-picked five premium VR attractions for the area, which will combine physical rides with cutting-edge virtual reality experiences.
Resorts World Genting is the latest global brand revealed to have selected ParadropVRTM as an anchor attraction as part of its immersive entertainment offering. Other leading operators working with Frontgrid Ltd and ParadropVRTM include Merlin Entertainments, Emaar Entertainment, King Power and iFLY.
Resorts World Genting has said it expects over 7,000 daily visitors at the park once it is fully opened to the public. The ParadropVRTM installation will be branded SkyGlider VR, in-line with branding at the park.
Frontgrid Ltd CEO Matt Wells said:
“We’re thrilled to be bringing ParadropVR to Malaysia with Resorts World Genting. To be chosen as one of the world’s top immersive experiences is a real honour and reflects the confidence leading entertainment brands have in our product.”
“With ParadropVR locations either planned or already installed in seven countries worldwide, it’s clear both consumers and operators are looking for premium virtual reality experiences which offer something out of the ordinary”
Sanjay Nadarajah, Vice President of Theme Park at Resorts World Genting said:
“We are very proud to be bringing Malaysia’s first ParadropVR to Sky VR at the Genting Highlands Resort. It’s an immersive adventure experience that all the family will enjoy – we can’t wait to see the reaction from guests when it launches.”
“Our goal at Sky VR is to offer the latest adrenaline-fuelled adventures and cutting- edge immersive experiences. ParadropVR delivers the best of both worlds, combining real-world sensations with a mind-blowing virtual environment.”
