EPN in Eastern Ukraine People are very worried This will

Netflix has found an original way to advertise its new animated film. The VOD leader has indeed designed a driving experience for Waze users. We tell you how to try it.

In partnership with Waze, Google’s GPS application, Netflix has designed an original driving experience inspired by the animated film The Sea Beast (The Sea Monster, in France). In a statement on its blog, Waze explains how this new mode, dubbed “Sea Monster mode”, works.

Available worldwide for a limited time, this driving mode allows you to familiarize yourself with the characters that will be featured in the feature film, such as Maisie and Blue. It is the voice of Maisie, a young girl full of enthusiasm, who will guide you in your journeys on Waze.

Small flat, the option is only available in English. Internet users who are less comfortable with the language of Shakespeare will probably hesitate to test the mode during a trip.

Waze doesn’t just change the GPS voice. The Google application also allows you to transform the icon of your vehicle into a rowboat to “enter the spirit of the true adventurer”. In addition, it is possible to change your avatar on the map. Netflix gives the choice between three avatars representing different sea monsters.
