 Immotion breaks through 430 contracted headsets

Immotion Group, the UK-based immersive virtual reality ("VR") 'Out of Home' entertainment group, is pleased to announce it has in the past week, signed contracts for 68 headsets (at 11 sites), including the Company's first outdoor enclosure of 8 headsets at Roger Williams Zoo in Rhode Island, USA.

The additional 68 contracted headsets (plus others already contracted but yet to be installed, including Mandalay Bay) will, once installed, take the total number of headsets in operation to 432; of which 314 will be in Partner locations, with 118 now operated in the Company's own ImmotionVR locations.
