EDMUND HILLARY THE CLIMBER

EDMUND HILLARY
A beekeeper from New Zealand, more at home among mountains than crowds. Ice axe in hand, he carved the final steps to the top.

History you walk through, not watch

EXPERIENCE IT FROM WITHIN

The story comes first. The technology is how you live it. Free-roaming VR means no seat, no controller and no screen between you and 1953 — you walk, you climb, you look down.

  • FREE-ROAMING | Move freely through a 400m² set built as the mountain itself.
  • PHYSICAL | Cold air, wind, vibration and pressure cues your body reads as real.
  • TOGETHER | Roped to your own team, exactly as the 1953 climbers were.
