Electronic Arts has been looking to promote its franchises in innovative and exciting ways, and now sci-fi fans can look forward to the greatest attraction to date.

After partnering with Cedar Fair Entertainment to introduce the Plants vs. Zombies Garden Warfare: 3Z Arena in Charlotte, NC earlier this month, the two are ready to launch in even bigger attraction at California’s Great America park in Santa Clara, and this one is built around the much-loved science fiction series Mass Effect.

The Mass Effect: New Earth 4D holographic theater experience is set to open on May 18, and promises to immerse fans into the video game franchise like never before. Using characters, events and environments taken from best-selling games like Mass Effect 3, the ride promises an innovative experience that takes attendees on a thrill ride that includes wind, water and “poking” effects along with live performances to make them feel like they’re in the reaches of space.

Christian Dieckmann, corporate vice president of strategic growth at Cedar Fair Entertainment, (speaking with Fortune) explained how vital it was that the nature of the ride matches with the mantra of the series. “It’s very important that we create an attraction that fits seamlessly in the world of Mass Effect, while including the elements we know are critical to making a good amusement park experience,” he noted. “We want to ensure that dedicated fans and park-goers being introduced to the franchise alike walk away thrilled and excited.”

The ride utilizes a custom-built 60-foot 3D LED screen to make the theater experience truly immersive. “3D LED is like a live VR experience,” said 3D Live co-founder and CEO Nathan Huber, in charge of the technology. “We have a performer (playing the captain of the ship) interacting on stage with the holographic screen. The 80-seat theater feels like you’re in a spaceship thanks to motion seats with wind, water, leg pokers and neck ticklers with 80-channel atmospheric surround sound arrays. It’s a full sensory bombardment.”

The Mass Effect amusement park attraction is timed perfectly to promote the video game series, as a new chapter, Mass Effect: Andromeda, is currently in development and is expected to arrive sometime next year. EA intends to give the game primary focus at its EA Play presentation during E3 week in June.
