Tyffon, a graduate of the Disney Accelerator program, has raised $7.8 million to expand its free-roam virtual reality experience locations from Japan to the U.S.

The company will open a Tyffonium venue later this year in Los Angeles. The company already has two locations in the Odaiba and Shibuya areas of Tokyo, and it will open a third Tokyo location in 2019.
