Dave & Buster's has scaled up the classic Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots game
Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots just got a whole lot bigger thanks to Dave & Buster's.
The US-based food and entertainment chain unveiled its new Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots game, manufactured exclusively for Dave & Busters, on December 26.
“Dave & Buster's always aims to provide exciting new experiences to its guests, and our exclusive new take on Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots brings a massive dose of competitive arcade fun,” Kevin Bachus, senior vice president of entertainment at Dave & Buster's, said.
“The game has been a favourite for more than 50 years, and we jumped at the opportunity to put our own giant stamp on a classic.”
Dave & Buster's oversized take on the classic Mattel game recreates the competitive fun of the original toy on a gigantic scale, replacing the 6-inch tall robots with massive versions that stand at more than 5-feet tall.
The new Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots game will not be available to play anywhere else except at Dave & Buster's restaurants in the US.
Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots pits two players against each other as they control the iconic red and blue robots in a boxing battle to the finish – when the winning player knocks the opposing robot's head off.
The giant robots and scaled-up boxing ring of Dave & Buster's Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots take the fun of the classic 1964 Mattel game to the next level to allow generations of fans to reconnect with a childhood favourite.
