Virtual reality game
The whole experience is based on a game developed by the company, called Mission 828, which lets you climb the exterior of the building all the way to the 125th floor.
And don’t worry if you feel a little panicked and fall down, all you have to do is remember it’s all in your head…or ontop of your head, really.
The simulation game also lets you explore the views atop of the Burj Khalifa, because you get to enjoy 360 degree views of the city as you climb up.
Good morning from the world’s tallest tower! #Burjkhalifa

Price
Unfortunately, the release of the Mission 828 game yesterday gave no indicaiton of pricing so far.
Probably not the best for those scared of height, but it looks like so much fun!
