Cirque du Soleil ECHO, a brand-new performance that debuted in Montreal last month, and branded game development firm Gamefam released Cirque du Soleil Tycoon, a Roblox game that allows users to create their own circuses. The game will combine dynamic worlds with costumes, performances, and behind-the-scenes details derived from Cirque du Soleil's circus acts.
With the company's new metaverse efforts, it hopes to bridge the gap between its older in-person and younger digital audiences. The game offers players an immersive experience that unveils the captivating world behind the scenes of Cirque du Soleil.
