Social gaming manufacturer Game Volt has launched its newest product, Hotshots.
Hotshots is a high-end digital shooting experience designed for bars, restaurants and entertainment venues. It is designed to drive footfall and secondary spend by delivering a competitive socialisation experience utilising the latest technology.
It reimagines the classic shooting gallery with projection technology. Players interact with the game via the shotgun controller, which utilises an over-and-under double-barrel design featuring haptic kickback and true to life weight and handling, to immerse players in the experience.
Hotshots has been designed for competitive socialising, with short, high-intensity round designed to keep players engaged and spectators entertained.
The system is fully automated and doesn’t require an attendant, keeping costs low, while the compact footprint covers just 24sq.m, saving space. It features modular and updateable content, including new game modes, seasonal overlays and branded IP collaborations to ensure to repeat visitation.
Peter Cliff, CEO and co-founder of Game Volt, said: “For social gaming to work in hospitality venues, the experience has to be instantly engaging, easy to operate and designed for repeat play. Hotshots delivers on all of this with a premium, immersive shooting experience that is as fun to watch as it is to play. It’s built for venues that want to offer something truly unique - a high-end, competitive experience that drives footfall and revenue.”
Jos van der Steen, COO and co-founder of Game Volt, added: “We designed Hotshots with venue owners in mind. It’s compact, operator-free and modular, making it easy to install and run with minimal maintenance. Plus, the ability to update game content over time means it’s not just a one-time investment - it’s an evolving platform that keeps guests coming back.”
