We're thrilled to unveil our brand new title, Deadwood PHOBIA, the third installment of our iconic zombie series. 🔥 As our first psychological-horror experience, Deadwood PHOBIA masterfully blurs the lines between reality and VR, challenging players to overcome what terrifies them most. "We started with a fascinating premise: exploring common phobias, then pushing them to their extremes using immersive storytelling," said Michael Hampden, SVP Content & Creative Director. "Phobias that barely register with one player may leave another screaming. Each player enters with their own fears and phobias, creating a truly unique experience for everyone." Get ready to face your fears: https://lnkd.in/gK8FBeMw

Deadwood PHOBIA launched six weeks ago today and has already broken records, including fastest experience to reach $2M in sales (just 3 weeks in). 🏆 Nearly 60k guests have played so far, and we've had a blast watching them face their fears (and scream a lot). "We're thrilled our guests are as excited about taking a journey through their phobias as we were while creating the experience. Huge congratulations to our team and thanks to everyone supporting Deadwood PHOBIA!" said Michael Hampden, SVP of Content and Creative Director. #Milestone #DeadwoodPHOBIA
