Timezone Singapore is excited to introduce the first arcade edition of cult favourite game Halo to Singapore. Halo: Fireteam Raven is set to blow arcade gamer’s minds on 27 July, when Timezone Vivocity becomes the first venue in Asia to boast this state-of-the-art 4K-quality multiplayer gaming experience. The launch of Halo: Fireteam Raven will be its first in South-East Asia following its arrival in Australia and New Zealand and summer of action in US arcades.
“Bringing the arcade game version of Halo to Timezone Singapore gives the game’s dedicated fan base a chance to play like never before. Timezone is thrilled to introduce this first-in-Singapore experience to fans as part of Timezone’s 40th birthday celebrations,” says Nesh Selva, General Manager of Timezone Singapore.
Halo’s console-based playing experience is now brought to life in an immersive multiplayer platform, which enables four players to either play cooperatively, or competitively with the characters and weapons they’ll recognize from the console game.
It’s Halo, but more: this latest instalment’s physical structure boasts a colossal 130-inch widescreen, 4K gameplay and 5.1 surround sound. It adds a tangible element to the much-loved franchise, allowing individuals the opportunity to play right alongside Master Chief in the battle to ward off the enemy forces of the Covenant and the Flood infestation.
Halo: Fireteam Raven was created and fine-tuned over several years and is set in the timeframe of 2001’s Halo: Combat Evolved game. Players will take on the roles of the Fireteam Raven – an elite group of Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. You’ll not only be able to battle it out with your friends, competing against them for the highest score – you’ll also be able to scan a QR code with your phone to upload your stats and progress to your Halo Waypoint account. Exactly what you’d expect from a true 2018 arcade game experience!
