Stranger Things fans — get ready to head back to Hawkins in a totally new way!
A brand-new game called Stranger Things Arcade is arriving this summer, and honestly… it looks wild.
Created by game developer Raw Thrills, this isn’t your typical arcade shooter. Instead, it’s a giant interactive ball-toss game that uses a massive video screen and special motion technology called the Thrill-Scan system.
And yes — it already started appearing at select Dave & Buster’s locations across North America before its official release later this year.
So what exactly do players do?
Up to four players can team up and travel through Hawkins and the Upside Down while battling some of the franchise’s scariest villains — including Demogorgons, Demobats, Demodogs, and even Vecna himself.
The game also features iconic characters, familiar locations, and music straight from the hit Netflix series.
According to Raw Thrills, the game is designed to be fun for players of all ages while delivering a fast-paced arcade experience unlike anything Stranger Things fans have seen before.
And when we say BIG… we mean BIG.
The arcade cabinet stands nearly ten feet tall and almost eight feet wide, making it one of the largest Stranger Things gaming experiences ever created.
Now even though the original Stranger Things series ended with Season 5, the franchise is far from over.
Fans recently got the animated spin-off series Stranger Things: Tales from ’85 on Netflix. The show takes place between Seasons 2 and 3 and introduces an entirely new supernatural threat in Hawkins.
Reviews for the animated series have been mixed so far, but despite that, Season 2 is still expected to arrive later this year.
So between new shows and giant arcade games, it definitely looks like the world of Stranger Things is staying alive for a long time.
