The company has teamed up with architectural Gensler to design its new hotel line, and the first hotels to open will be in Las Vegas and Phoenix. Get ready, player one.

“Like Atari’s legacy in innovation, Atari Hotels is infusing synthetic reality into every aspect of the hotel, creating an immersive hospitality and gaming experience for our guests. From our virtual interactive world to the physical locations, every element of Atari Hotels will offer a unique and authentic experience for everyone.”

The hotels will offer virtual and augmented reality capabilities and studios to accommodate gaming challenges. Through this collaboration, Atari and Gensler will combine nostalgia for retro art and futuristic hospitality all in one package.

Atari hasn't actually made anything gaming related in years. The company has effectively been stripped for its IP... but it is great IP.
