Sega Republic was a 76,000 sq ft indoor theme park on the second floor of The Dubai Mall in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It opened on August 21, 2009. The park boasts the world's largest selection of redemption games in the Redemption Zone, as well as a range of rides and arcade games in the other four zones (Adventure, Cyberpop, Speed and Sports Zones).
The park closed on June 1, 2017 when the license to use the Sega name and franchises had expired. It appears the venue had some agreement in place with Dezerland Park Orlando in the United States, as a number of Sega Republic's larger deluxe attractions were moved to Dezerland upon its closure.[1] The existing space is now occupied by VR Park Dubai, a theme park dedicated to virtual reality which reuses some of the former attractions.
