Robocom VR now owns and operates the entire gaming supply chain, from development to operations and manufacturing. Winning their partnership with Hasbro to develop Transformers VR simulators was one of Robocom VR’s greatest accomplishments. Transformer VR – Invasion of the Decepticons’ took our team at Robocom VR months of research and years of development. One of the most difficult aspects was creating all of the transformation rigs and animations within the game and then synchronizing them with the machine.”

Emaar was our very first partner in the Middle East and has been a staunch supporter of Robocom. The opening of the attraction in VR Park cements our strategic partnership with EMAAR, and we look forward to expanding our collaboration across additional locations in Dubai.” added Karim.
