Press Release
Set to launch at New York Toy Fair 2026
A new era of interactive play begins with the launch of Megashot Pickle+, the world’s first motion-based play experience with real-time haptic feedback, premiering on the sidelines of the New York Toy Fair 2026.
Unlike regular motion-based games where movement is only visual, Megashot Pickle+ transforms how play feels. Every swing, hit, and interaction is delivered with instant physical feedback, allowing players to experience the action as it happens. The result is a more immersive, intuitive, and engaging form of play that feels remarkably real.
What sets Megashot Pickle+ apart is its simplicity and accessibility. No VR is required, ensuring players remain connected to their surroundings while enjoying an active, physical gaming experience. This makes it ideal for homes, events, and shared play spaces, without the discomfort or isolation often associated with virtual reality setups.
Megashot Pickle+ arrives following the successful launch of Megashot’s cricket-based motion play, which proved there is strong demand for skill-driven, movement-focused gaming. Building on that success, Pickle+ expands the Megashot ecosystem, bringing the same realism and excitement into a new format of play.
Megashot Pickle+ will be showcased at the New York Toy Fair 2026, giving attendees the opportunity to experience this innovation firsthand.
📍 Booth #: 6619
🗓 Dates: 14–17, 2026
Visitors are invited to come, meet the makers, experience Megashot Pickle+ live, and explore the technology and vision behind the product. Whether you’re a retailer, distributor, media professional, or play enthusiast, this is one experience you don’t want to miss.
