Hyderabad Comic Con Transforms into the Badlands as Predator: Badlands Dominates the Arena
Hyderabad Comic Con 2025 turned into a full-blown sci-fi warzone this weekend as Predator: Badlands took over the convention floor with one of the most electrifying and immersive experiences of the event. The sprawling Badlands Zone became the epicenter of adrenaline, where fans stepped into the Predator’s hunting grounds — a high-tech, cinematic setup that fused design, sound, and sensory chaos into a jaw-dropping experience.
🩸 Step Inside the Hunter’s Territory
The Predator: Badlands immersive booth recreated the chilling essence of the film’s world — an atmosphere drenched in suspense, danger, and raw survival instinct. Fans entered the hunter’s domain, complete with cinematic lighting, alien tech props, and motion-triggered sound effects that made them feel hunted in real-time.

The challenge perfectly captured the thrill of survival and precision, leaving fans both nervous and exhilarated.
