New Deep-Sea Adventure Arriving Next Year at Huis Ten Bosch

"Huis Ten Bosch to Launch 'Mission Deep-Sea', A Cutting-Edge Underwater Exploration Attraction, in March 2024"

TOKYO, Jan 17 (News On Japan) - Join Huis Ten Bosch in Sasebo City, Nagasaki Prefecture on March 15th, where they are set to open 'Mission Deep-Sea,' a new ride attraction equipped with state-of-the-art technology.

'Mission Deep-Sea' is an attraction developed by Huis Ten Bosch with a commitment to high quality, featuring the world's most advanced screens, sound systems, and motion ride seats. It was created by bringing together top-notch creators in the industry.

The concept of the Xsense ride is to experience the unknown (X) sensation (sense).

The mission given to guests visiting the Oceanographic Museum is to rescue a team that lost contact at a depth of 13,000 meters in the deep sea. Guests will embark on a submersible, and be drawn into the unexplored depths of the ocean through a fusion of video, audio, and action seats.

The key to this immersive experience lies in a total of 81 high-quality speakers, motion ride seats that provide special effects like wind and jolts, and high-definition LED screens installed in the front (8m wide x 3.5m high) and on the ceiling (4.7m wide x 4.3m high).

Guests can experience the realism and immersive feeling that makes one's skin crawl, with three-dimensional acoustics that envelop the entire hall, precise motion integrated with the visuals and audio, and a deep sea scene that extends overhead, drawing them into the darkness of the deep sea.
