New VR Theme Parks from Landmark Entertainment Group to “Fuse Art, Culture, and Retail with Virtual Reality”
Landmark’s so called L.I.V.E. Center (Landmark Interactive Virtual Experience) is going to offer park-goers a “mixed reality entertainment destination,” that promises to “fuse art, culture and retail with virtual reality, augmented reality and themed architecture and design.”
The first Center, which plans to break ground in China in the next 12-18 months with the help of a Chinese investor group, will include an interactive museum, a virtual zoo, a virtual aquarium, a digital art gallery, a live entertainment stage, an immersive movie theater, and themed experience retail spaces. There’s no word yet on what specific headsets or systems they have in mind for these VR/AR spaces.
...the center represents a large step not only for the Chinese market into virtual reality spaces, but for out-of-home VR locations in general like newly planned out-of-home park, The Void, currently in development just outside Salt Lake City in Pleasant Grove, Utah.
