EVO entertainment has acquired the former Xscape Theatre (26616 FM 1093) and plans to redevelop the

site into a nearly 70,000-square-foot entertainment destination serving the growing Katy-

Fulshear community.


 

The project will completely change the facility from what families may recall. There will be an additional 35,000 square feet of new family entertainment space. There will be bowling lanes, more than 100 arcade games, a full-service restaurant and bar, private event spaces, and attractions such as laser tag, climbing walls, bumper cars, gravity ropes, and more.

 

"We are thrilled to bring EVO Entertainment to this vibrant and growing community," says Mitch Roberts, Founder & CEO of EVO Entertainment. “This property has long served as a gathering place for local residents, and we are excited to expand upon that legacy while reimagining it for the next generation."

 

The existing cinema will undergo significant renovations, including the addition of two EVX with Dolby Vision® and Dolby Atmos® premium format screens, featuring massive wall-to-wall screens and delivering breathtaking picture quality and immersive sound for an unmatched cinematic experience.


 

The venue is projected to open summer 2027 and construction is starting soon.

 

As the Katy area continues families can expect businesses and other organization to follow that grow.

 

Earlier this week, Memorial Hermann Katy announced additional services being added to their stroke treatment plans. Houston Methodist opened a new center to continue to meet Katy’s growth in Cinco Ranch.

 

Katy ISD opened two new elementary schools last academic year with plans for more as the District continues to meet the needs of their students.
