Prepare to be assimilated! "Borg Invasion 4D" opens at the Las Vegas Hilton on March 18, 2004.

Last August, we announced one of the most anticipated Star Trek attractions ever. Now, this attraction will soon be a reality, one that you will never forget.

"Borg Invasion 4D" is a multi-million dollar galactic experience billed as the most ambitious 4D-style attraction ever conceived. "Borg Invasion 4D" will combine live actors and phenomenal special effects to create an excitingly realistic Star Trek experience. As visitors tour a futuristic research facility, the terrifying drones of the Borg Collective attempt to capture and assimilate them using 24th-century cybernetic technology. The result is a merging of 3D and 4D in a chilling realization of state-of-the-art technology that provides an all-immersive tactile experience for visitors to the attraction.

The Borg setting presented in this attraction is an altogether edgier, darker side of Star Trek, with authentic attention to detail that will elicit thrills from all participants. "Borg Invasion 4D" marks the first time Star Trek fans will be able to experience their beloved universe in 3D (4D!) "reality." The attraction features numerous sensory effects, choreographed with the 3D film and a live-action Steadicam stereo shot with real-time 3D onscreen playback, greatly enhancing the viewers' experience. The 4th Dimension adds sensory experiences inside the theater, including interaction with live actors, cutting-edge digital technology and chilling physical effects that combine to form this state-of-the-art adventure.

With the new Las Vegas Monorail, the Invasion is easy to access. (It may not be so easy to escape once you are assimilated, of course.) Note: This attraction may be unsuitable for younger children.

STARTREK.COM is committed to bringing you the latest news, information and images (what we can reveal) on what promises to be the most talked about "must see" attractions in the land of attractions and spectacle — Las Vegas.
