Set over two floors, it will host karaoke, augmented reality darts where slinging your arrows becomes part of the wider gameplay, pool tables, shuffleboard, arcade games and virtual reality pods allowing up to four players to immerse themselves in new worlds.

As the finishing touches are made ahead of its opening, Panenka has shared these CGI images with The Star showing how it will look.

Panenka will have an Asian-inspired menu featuring Korean fried chicken, bao buns, Korean corndogs, burgers, gyozas and more, with a wide range of drinks, including 'premium' beers and cocktails. There will also be a bottomless brunch experience available.
