Groundbreaking Zombie XR Experience Launches After Successful Crowdfunding Campaign

The Japan XR Center, based in Nakano, Tokyo, has exciting news to share! They've successfully crowdfunded their latest project on CAMPFIRE, raising an impressive ¥2.15 million, exceeding their target of ¥2 million by 7%. This funding was gained through the support of 186 backers, making the launch of their permanent installation of the XR zombie experience, 'Zombie Storm: Noa's Call,' a reality.

Dive into the Ultimate Zombie Survival Experience

The attraction offers team-based survival shooting within a thrilling virtual realm teeming with zombies. Designed for cooperation among up to six players, participants embark on missions to defeat the undead while racing against a ticking clock.

Equipped with vibrating suits and gun controllers, players engage in a fully immersive experience that goes beyond shooting, demanding strategy and teamwork. Many players have reported feeling like action heroes, with comments resonating with enthusiasm:

“Just holding the gun elevates my excitement!”

“It looks fantastic, and I can shout while moving around – it’s exhilarating!”

Expanding Support and Community Engagement

The crowdfunding journey commenced in July 2025, lasting about two months. Throughout this period, the Japan XR Center built strong relationships with its supporters by sharing blueprints, development updates, and testimonials from those who experienced the attractions. Notably, the 'XR Evangelist' plan, which included ten experience tickets, attracted significant attention, fostering a sense of community among friends, co-workers, and couples eager to participate with ease and spontaneity.

Opening Dates and Location

The exciting pre-opening for the exclusive backers is set for August 28, 2025, while the grand opening for the public is scheduled for October 3, 2025. The venue is conveniently located on the first floor of Nakano Broadway, a vibrant area known for its subculture and delicious food.

With a mere five-minute walk from the North Exit of Nakano Station, it’s easily accessible for after-work outings or shopping breaks.

Experience Details, Pricing, and Age Restrictions

Participants can expect approximately 30 minutes of engagement, with around 15 minutes dedicated to actual gameplay. Suitable for ages 7 and up, players under 13 must be accompanied by an adult.
The venue accommodates a maximum of six participants, with pricing set at ¥2,000 on weekdays and ¥2,500 on weekends and holidays (tax included). The reservation system ensures swift gameplay without wait times, and each participant will receive a recording of their action-packed moments, perfect for sharing on social media!

Raving Reviews from Early Participants

During the pre-opening phase, early visitors have shared glowing reviews:

Vision from the Leader

In a statement, CEO Taiga Kobayashi expressed:

“I aspire to create a world where airsoft is accessible, trendy, and enjoyable for everyone. We aim to deliver experiences that cater to new audiences like 'airsoft girls,' allowing them to have fun in their own unique ways through XR.”
