Unfolding on Roblox, the group survival adventure transforms the classic 1970s film into an interactive experience, combining elements of strategy, teamwork, and action.
PRNewswire - Orange Comet, Inc, a next-gen gaming and entertainment company, has collaborated with Universal Products & Experiences to bring JAWS to an all-new audience through the immersive experience JAWS: Infested Waters. Currently in soft launch, this adrenaline-charged experience unfolds on Roblox, the immersive platform for communication and connection.
Capturing the essence of the breathtaking and terrifying action-thriller, the JAWS: Infested Waters experience on Roblox is a group survival adventure that thrusts visitors into the heart of the action. The experience revolves around the iconic tension between the dangerous great white shark and Amity Island locals, faithfully echoing the suspense of the classic motion picture while having some fun along the way. One user assumes the role of the formidable shark, while the rest of the users strive to outlast and outsmart the ocean's apex predator.
The central gameplay loop, featuring elements of composer John Williams' instantly recognizable Oscar-winning score, forms the backbone of this thrilling experience. In a random selection process, users may find themselves taking on the menacing persona of the shark or the shark hunters.
"JAWS is a one-of-a-kind film that generations of fans love to watch – and be terrified by – together," said Bill Kispert, SVP Games & Digital Platforms at Universal Products & Experiences. "This led us to explore a unique, multiplayer experience filled with frightening fun and unexpected twists above and below the surface. We look forward to Roblox users having a blast with their friends in this action-packed social game that really packs a bite."
"I would say we're kicking and screaming with excitement, but that might attract sharks", said Dave Broome, CEO of Orange Comet. "It's truly an honor to work on a game inspired by one of the most iconic film franchises ever created. We're thrilled to bring JAWS: Infested Waters to Roblox, where fans can enjoy an entirely new immersive experience inspired by the film."
The JAWS: Infested Waters experience is designed to offer a multifaceted experience that combines elements of strategy, teamwork, and action. Orange Comet aims to redefine the boundaries of entertainment and gaming by transforming this classic masterpiece into an interactive and unforgettable adventure. As the project comes to life, fans can anticipate more details, sneak peeks, and exciting updates leading up to the experience's highly anticipated release next month.
