Herschend to tour Halo themed pop-up park

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

Halo: Outpost Discovery is scheduled to run for a single weekend in each city, where it will feature a real-life Halo Ring and Warthog (sounds like it's not actually drive-able, by the way), a laser tag arena, escape room, VR and simulation stations loaded with Halo experiences, and panels to attend. The Halo Ring attraction is a dome-projection experience, and there are esports and kid-friendly activities as well, according to designers. The whole thing is being planned in partnership with Dollywood operator Herschend Live.

Oddly (or maybe not), an ad or a promo for this exact thing popped up on my FB this morning. I didn’t click, as I really wasn’t interested, or more like didn’t know what it was. Looks like I didn’t have to.

Halo is a really good science fiction property, for having originated in a video game. I think Microsoft has dropped the ball in letting it kind of languish for the last few years. There's a great story line behind the games.
