BANDAI NAMCO Amusement Europe has secured the exclusive rights to Halo: Fireteam Raven, which it will distribute into the EMEA this summer.
“We are excited to be part of this project and to be working with one of the biggest brands and game titles in the world, brought into the amusement market by Raw Thrills,” said James Anderson, commercial and sales director, BNAE. “We are certain this game will be a hit.” There will be limited numbers of the four-player version of the game, which was created by Raw Thrills in collaboration with Play Mechanix and 343 Industries.
Players take part in the events of the original Halo storyline from the console games from an all-new perspective - the ODST soldiers of Fireteam Raven. The aim of the game is to provide cover fire and mission assistance for Master Chief and defeat fan-favourite enemies like the Covenant and Flood. The full arsenal of weapons from across the Halo universe is available to use, while players can enjoy 4K graphics on Play Mechanix’ NexaGen arcade game engine.
The unit features a massive dual 65ins screen panoramic display in the environmental cabinet, which also features force feedback ODST weapons and 5.1 surround sound. Players can directly link to their Xbox Live accounts via Halo Waypoint and Halo: Fireteam Raven’s scanner interface to access exclusive stats and rewards. “Halo: Fireteam Raven is without a doubt, the most spectacular arcade simulator ever made. After years of development it is now ready,” said Raw Thrills’ Eugene Jarvis at the launch event.
