Why wait until Christmas Day for the best type of fun and entertainment in your hands? Look no further than what Arcadia is serving up for The Culture these days courtesy of a jam-packed new augmented reality experience you have to see - literally - to believe.

From showing off the athletics to getting caught up in some non-reality because you know, augmented, and all. It’s all in the details. Peep the fine print and lose yourself in the out of this world journey.

Developed over the course of the last year, the alpha version enables you to compete and connect through the first game ball designed to live between physical and virtual dimensions (also named Arcadia-01). Using their hands and bodies as controllers, players can: 

• Force pull and force push (with light flicks or forceful pushes) the Arcadia-01 ball through the air and into spatial goals. 

• Float it above their open palm, or carry it and run. 

• Bend the ball’s path in mid-air, or through portals to teammates on the other side of the globe.  

Gameplay supports everything from casual exploration to dedicated competitive gameplay through more immersive game modes.

• Arcadia-01 Trainer: Get a taste for how it feels to practice and compete in the next dimension.

• Streaks: Compete to post the longest consecutive hit streak on the global leaderboard as the difficulty increases with each level. Miss a shot and your streak restarts.

• Time Attack: Speed is king. Miss as many shots as you like; but how many prisms you can hit in 2, 5, 10-minute time challenges? Then, see how your skills stack up on the global leaderboard.

• Open Court: A meditative environment for players to relax, hit shots, and work on their game.

• Super Dodge Ball: Survive Arcadia's Athletic Intelligence system as you prove your skills with the Arcadia-01 Ball against waves of oncoming opponents. Block, dodge, and headshot your way to the top while racking up points through accuracy, speed, and combo multipliers.

 Arcadia continues to innovate toward the future of sport and aims to integrate Arcadia-01 into the company’s first-of-a-kind, digital sports arena and competitive format in the near future. And, the startup aims to discover its first pro athletes through Arcadia-01’s ranked game modes and training grounds.
