The first domestic launch of the Honor of Kings-themed VR roller coaster at Chimelong Paradise

Guangzhou, August 9, 2018 — On August 9, Chimelong Paradise unveiled its “Honor of Kings-themed VR Roller Coaster” to great fanfare. Guests wearing high-tech VR goggles and riding the upgraded Pegasus Family Roller Coaster, amidst heart-pounding speeds and sensations of weightlessness, are led by the “Joy Ambassador” Mengdi into surreal, lifelike environments. The combination of physical sensations and virtual visual impacts greatly enhances the overall experience. This marks this summer’s cross-industry collaboration between Chimelong and Honor of Kings, merging popular game elements with large-scale theme park innovations to deliver an ultimate thrill.

The Honor of Kings-themed VR roller coaster makes its first domestic debut at Chimelong Paradise.

Boarding the upgraded Pegasus Family Roller Coaster and putting on high-tech VR goggles, visitors are instantly joined by the “Joy Ambassador” Mengdi and popular Honor of Kings heroes such as Zhuang Zhou, Wang Zhaojun, and Da Qiao. Using his dream-devouring powers, Mengdi transports guests into a magical realm, taking them through fantastical worlds including mysterious underwater scenes, icy landscapes, and the vastness of space.

The VR roller coaster immerses visitors fully in a virtual yet incredibly realistic world. Physically, riders can clearly feel whether they are moving straight, tilting, or turning, and when combined with the visual stimulation from the VR goggles, sensations such as underwater exploration, racing across glaciers, or strolling through starry skies are significantly amplified. VR technology also greatly enriches the visual experience of the roller coaster, breaking through the limitations of conventional rides where riders can only see the track and real scenery. With VR, guests enjoy a richer visual panorama, and when combined with the actual G-forces and inertial impacts felt in the body, creates a stronger sense of presence and greatly boosts the fun factor.

VR technology significantly enriches the visual experience of the roller coaster and heightens the enjoyment.

In addition to the “Honor of Kings-themed VR Roller Coaster,” the “Chimelong · King’s Summer Carnival” event is in full swing at Chimelong Paradise. Characters like Luban, Zhong Wuyan, and Xiahou Dun “rule the roost” in scream-inducing rides, accompanying visitors as they tackle the Rocket Coaster, Super Swing, and U-shaped Slide. There are also Honor of Kings-themed parade floats and midsummer carnival parties, offering guests a fully immersive entertainment experience.

Chimelong’s creative cross-industry collaboration with Honor of Kings brings visitors an even more exceptional experience through cutting-edge amusement technology.

Notably, Chimelong’s creative partnership with Honor of Kings, enabled by state-of-the-art amusement technology, offers visitors an elevated experience. Whether riding the VR roller coaster at Chimelong Paradise, interacting playfully with Mengdi using QQ-AR technology, or watching the stunningly realistic “Valley Detective Squad 2” in the 4D cinema, the park continues to pioneer new gameplay and experiences in China and around the world, delivering ultimate joy to guests.
