The newly formed Miraculous Corp—the joint-venture between Mediawan, Europe’s premier independent production powerhouse led by Pierre-Antoine Capton, and ZAG, the innovative independent animation studio renowned for crafting original tales and IPs led by Jeremy Zag that reunites all facets of the globally acclaimed Miraculous franchise—has partnered with Nex, the leading motion technology company, to develop an endless runner game for the global market for hit brand Miraculous™. Miraculous Ladybug: Paris Dash will be initially available later this Fall 2024 in the U.S., exclusively on the award-winning Nex Playground console.
Based on the globally popular animated TV Series Miraculous™ – Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir and the blockbuster animated feature Miraculous™ Ladybug and Cat Noir: The Movie, Miraculous Ladybug: Paris Dash uses proprietary AI motion tracking technology developed by Nex, allowing players to be immersed in an experience using their natural body movement. The game is suitable for ages 5 and up.
In Miraculous Ladybug: Paris Dash, kids play as both Marinette and Ladybug on a mad dash through Paris to defeat her most dangerous enemies. Players use their whole bodies to race Marinette through the boulevards and alleyways of Paris—leaping across rooftops, diving under gates and avoiding an endless stream of obstacles. If Marinette collects enough Miraculous jewels, she transforms into Ladybug with super agility powers and her favorite magic yo-yo weapon. She’ll need these to defeat increasingly tough villains like Stormy Weather and Reverser all the way up to the ultimately bad guy, Hawk Moth.
“With sophisticated design and easy set-up, Nex Playground transforms living rooms into an active digital playspace for families,” commented Julian Jacob, COO, Miraculous Corp. “We are confident that our Miraculous fans across the globe will be delighted to stand in Ladybug’s shoes as they move their bodies and use arm gestures to save Marinette’s beloved city of Paris from evil villains.”
“Nex is thrilled to bring its active gaming technology to Miraculous,” said David Lee, CEO and Co-founder of Nex. “We’re bringing the brand to life in new ways, and Miraculous fans can now truly become their favorite superhero!”
Founded in 2017, Nex has been recognized as one of Fast Company’s Most Innovative Companies, received a special mention in TIME magazine’s Best Inventions, and has been awarded the prestigious Apple Design Award, as well as recognized as Parent.com’s Best Entertainment System for Families. Playground is currently available in the U.S. with more countries expected to be added this year.
