A virtual skiing experience in Val d'Isère with Grand Mountain Adventure 2

What if you could go skiing in Val d’Isère… from your smartphone? This winter, Val d’Isère is taking things to a new level by becoming the first real ski resort in the world to be featured in a video game.

Global innovation in the world of video games

From 29 November 2025, not only will the ski area be open for the season, but you’ll also be able to ski in Val d’Isère from your smartphone, thanks to an exclusive map of the the ski area on Grand Mountain Adventure 2.

This is the first time an actual ski resort has been used in the game. Players will be able to explore an exclusive map of Val d’Isère, ski down the iconic Face de Bellevarde black run and go on a virtual exploration of the resort’s well-known slopes. This experience brings the virtual world a bit closer to reality, and makes Val d’Isère a pioneer in the world of winter sports in video games.

A whole new way to appreciate our Alpine playground, now accessible to everyone, wherever you are in the world.

A real passion for the mountains

There’s a great story behind this project: three Swedish brothers, all passionate skiers who went skiing in Val d’Isère every winter during their childhood. These great holiday memories inspired them to create an authentic and fully immersive video game.

Today, they are symbolically ‘coming home’, by integrating their favourite ski resort into their iconic franchise.
