Vancouver, BC / TheNewswire / September 17th, 2018 - YDreams Global Technologies Inc. (TSX-V: YD) ("YDreams" or the "Company") is pleased to present its September monthly corporate update. YDreams has been extremely busy the last few months and will initiate monthly corporate update to keep the communications open to shareholders. Arkave continues to get rave reviews as it begins to expand globally. The YDStudio division has one of its best quarters ever and YDreams showcases its Virtual Reality expertise at a couple of industry leading shows.
Arkave VR:
Arkave VR was the main attraction at "Game XP" last week, one of the largest gaming festivals in South America. This was the perfect opportunity for YDreams to debut the latest version of its hit game "The Last Squad", a VR multiplayer, free roaming experience.
6 Arkave VR arenas were set up allowing groups of 18 people at a time to play. Background video stories to the game were shown, setting the table for an amazing immersive experience. Ranking boards were displayed allowing the gamers to see who the big winner was of each game.
Francisco Chaves, Head of Arkave VR said "It was impressive to have over 4,000 players during the 4-day event playing our game. After the first day when the gates opened, people would run to our Arkave VR arena to be able to play and in many cases more than once." Also stating "This format was a huge success and Arkave VR was voted the best attraction of the event."
Expansion of the Arkave VR Arenas in the United States are underway and negotiations with a distributor for Family Entertainment Centers has begun. The product is a turnkey solution and considered one of the best VR Multiplayers experience in the world.
YDreams will soon be opening an Arkave VR Store in Vancouver, B.C. located in Gastown. The store will be featuring the Arkave VR arenas and will have VR and e-sport related products for sale. It will also have a professional e-Sports area, dedicated to local teams and tournaments.
YDStudio Division:
The YDStudio division has signed 8 new contracts over July and August, of which 6 are new clients. Highlighted by an Augmented Reality App for Hyundai Motor Brazil, other contracts spanned the telecom and energy sectors as well as major shopping mall experiences. These sales will add an estimated $600,000 CAD in revenues for the company.
