Dive into Disaster Preparedness with Meta Heroes

Meta Heroes, headquartered in Osaka, is thrilled to announce its participation in the upcoming SAKAI Sorairo Disaster Festival scheduled for November 22, 2025. This unique event will take place at Mina Sakai, located in front of Sakai City Hall, where families can engage in hands-on disaster preparedness activities through an exciting disaster preparedness metaverse.

Background of the Event

In recent years, Japan has faced a surge in natural disasters, raising awareness about the necessity for effective disaster preparedness and education. Traditional training methods often prove to be overly formal, especially for children and young adults. The challenge lies in creating opportunities that inspire them to view these situations as personal, encouraging a proactive approach to learning. In urban areas, the demand for complex crisis management abilities during large-scale disasters further underscores the need for education that not only imparts knowledge but also cultivates the ability to take action.

Acknowledging these challenges, Meta Heroes has harnessed its expertise in metaverse development to create a disaster preparedness metaverse that incorporates gamified elements, allowing participants to not just learn but experience the reality of disaster scenarios in a fun and engaging way.

Event Highlights

The SAKAI Sorairo Disaster Festival will gather professionals from the Sakai Fire Department, Sakai Police Department, Sakai Coast Guard, and the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of "preparations for the unexpected." This event aims to offer a diverse array of engaging programs designed for families to learn together through enjoyable experiences.

Meta Heroes will showcase an original disaster preparedness metaverse leveraging the popular gaming platform Fortnite, which boasts over 650 million users worldwide. During this immersive experience, attendees will confront realistic disaster conditions within a virtual space and learn essential evacuation procedures and initial response actions through gameplay.
