WHAT IS HADO
The Augmented Reality (AR) Sport
Hiroshi Fukuda, founder and CEO of meleap Inc., dreamed of throwing hadoken like in comics and on TV. This passion burned inside until HADO was realized as a sport in 2014. Today, players can strap on head-mounted displays and armband sensors to wield energy balls and shields on a real-world court as if by magic.
Played by Millions
Since its inception in 2014, HADO has been played in over 26 countries as a sport utilizing technology to cultivate a new community surpassing language, culture and even location.
Tournaments Worldwide
HADO is all about competition. Every year, the Spring, Summer and Climax seasons let teams battle it out worldwide on an almost weekly basis until the champion is crowned at the HADO World Cup in December.
