Japanese XR Attraction 'Battle World 2045' Expands to South America with First Overseas License Agreement

Japanese XR Attraction 'Battle World 2045' Expands to South America

In an exciting development for immersive gaming, the Japan XR Center, based in Nakano, Tokyo, has signed its very first overseas license agreement for the XR attraction "Battle World 2045," co-developed in conjunction with Tokyo Dome Corporation. This groundbreaking deal marks the attraction's expansion into the South American market, specifically in Montevideo, Uruguay, with a planned launch at a new amusement facility scheduled to open in April 2026.

Overview of 'Battle World 2045'

"Battle World 2045" is a cutting-edge XR (Extended Reality) attraction that allows participants to engage in a thrilling shooting experience while free-roaming in a spatial environment that seamlessly blends reality and digital realms. Equipped with VR headsets, players collaborate to fend off adversaries while completing missions in a fully immersive battleground.

Key Features of the Attraction

- Free-Movement Gameplay: Utilizing real-world spaces for a dynamic play experience.
- High-Quality Visual Effects: Providing an immersive visual experience that enhances the gaming atmosphere.
- Proven Safety and Efficiency Standards: Drawing upon operational experience at Tokyo Dome City to ensure safety, quick turnover, and profitability.

Unlike traditional arcade games or home VR experiences, this attraction promises to deliver a next-generation form of entertainment that stands out in the gaming landscape.

Background of the Overseas Expansion

The decision to introduce "Battle World 2045" to Uruguay reflects the rising demand for XR attractions in commercial spaces across Japan and increasing inquiries from international markets. With few permanent XR attractions currently operational in Uruguay, this project is set to become a pioneering example of advanced entertainment in the region.

Collaborative Framework for Overseas Expansion

In Japan, the Tokyo Dome Corporation serves as the intellectual property (IP) holder, responsible for brand management, while Japan XR Center handles development and operational maintenance. For the international rollout, Hanwa Co., Ltd. is joining as an overseas sales partner, establishing a clear division of roles among the three companies involved—creating a robust framework for future international initiatives. This marks not only the first overseas license but also sets the groundwork for ongoing global expansion.

Details About the Hosting Company and Facility

The attraction will be implemented at a new facility operated by Cresor Sas, based in Montevideo, which is set to open in March 2026. This facility will be a trampoline park integrated with an arcade center, with Cresor Sas focusing on managing the arcade operations. As there are currently no existing VR attraction venues in the area, the introduction of "Battle World" promises to offer a unique XR experience for local users.

Facility Overview:

- Facility Name: Trampoline Park Arcade Center
- Location: W.F Aldunate 7201, Montevideo, Uruguay
- Scheduled Opening: March 2026
- Operating Company: Cresor Sas (for arcade operations)

With the introduction of this attraction, Cresor Sas aims to enhance its offerings by incorporating innovative XR experiences alongside traditional arcade games.
