MMI signed on two new theatres and showcased its unique POD lobby attraction, Game Station, and MX4D^® theatre at the 2018 Cinemacon trade show in Las Vegas.

MMI signed with Cinemas Entertainment to launch a second hybrid-esports theatre at Lawndale 10 in downtown Chicago. “We are excited to bring our unique MX4D Motion EFX Experience to the greater Chicago area,” said Dan Jamele, CITO of MMI. “Adding a 4D theatre that doubles as an esports venue is sure to be a major draw for the area.

MediaMation’s MX4D Esports Theatre starts with the company’s motion and special effects technology and adds an innovative package of patent-pending features that are designed to support Esports. As spectators and gamers watch a tournament, a “game jockey” animates the entire auditorium with motion and special effects in response to the tournament action on the screen. Spectators enjoy over a dozen special effects that punctuate key points in the game play.

In addition to Cinemas Entertainment, MMI inked a deal with Cineplexx for their Grazz location. The 72 seat theatre will be located in Austria. “This is our first Austrian location,” said Heather Blair, Head of Cinema Sales. “It will stand as a symbol for MMI’s dedication for rapid growth into new territories.”
