The theme of the upcoming Expo 2025 is “Designing Future Society for Our Lives.” Inspired by the “REBORN” theme of the Osaka Healthcare Pavilion, Capcom decided to exhibit an interactive attraction that incorporates the concept of nature, living things, and the wonder of life, which are important themes in the Monster Hunter series.
Exhibit Details
Monster Hunter Bridge is a wholly-unique attraction that Capcom created exclusively for Expo 2025. Visitors to the hall will don specialized AR devices and be able to enjoy this interactive attraction that weaves together a 360-degree theater, immersive audio, and vibrating floor. Capcom is developing Monster Hunter Bridge with the aim of blending dreams with reality to provide an immersive experience like never before. The company hopes that visitors look forward to this one-of-a-kind Monster Hunter attraction that will bring them up close with Felyne as well as incredible monster encounters, and can only be experienced at Expo 2025.
Facilities Details
The attraction will be housed in a cylinder-shaped theater within the XD Hall that will measure approximately 12 meters in diameter and 5 meters in height and will be created as part of the Osaka Healthcare Pavilion. Capcom will exhibit Monster Hunter Bridge there by creating a space inside the XD Hall that projects the world of Monster Hunter in 360 degrees, utilizing transparent LED displays on the internal walls and ceiling and projectors on the floor. The company developed new specialized AR devices for visitors that feature 105 degrees of visibility in order to create Expo 2025’s most engaging experience. In addition, the company will enhance the immersion of the space by outfitting it with a multitude of speakers set behind the transparent LED displays, wrapping visitors in 360 degrees of sound while vibrations from the floor are synchronized with the on-screen action.
The company is creating these facilities with the cooperation of partner companies exclusively for Monster Hunter Bridge.
