The Sandbox, a leading decentralised gaming virtual world and a subsidiary of Animoca Brands recently partnered with Affyn, a Singapore-based Web3 company developing games and metaverses with integrated geolocation and augmented reality capabilities. Together, these 2 entities are set to enhance the interoperable metaverse experiences – a first-of-its-kind, community-focused interoperable and open metaverse to bring the global community of creators and collaborators together to forge sustainable ecosystems converging virtual and physical worlds.
Lucaz Lee, CEO and co-founder of Affyn said, “We couldn’t be more excited to unveil our partnership with The Sandbox. Our shared belief and vision of an open metaverse is the driving force behind this collaboration. We’re confident it will provide gamers, collaborators and virtual world enthusiasts with an even more immersive and interactive experience.”
The Sandbox has collaborated with over 400 partners, such as Warner Music Group, Ubisoft, Tony Hawk, Gucci Vault, The Walking Dead, Invincible, Snoop Dogg, Adidas, Deadmau5, Steve Aoki, SM Entertainment, Atari, and numerous others. The Sandbox aims to enable players to design their own adventures using iconic characters and worlds. This collaboration is set to fully embrace the idea of the metaverse as a continuous shared digital space where worlds and heroes collide to make magic.
“The Sandbox has always been a strong advocate of interoperability and decentralisation. We’re excited to see more platforms embracing interoperability as a choice rather than working in independent silos and we hope that this brings forth more creative opportunities and exciting use-cases to collaboratively grow the metaverse experience.,” said George Wong, Head of Singapore Sandbox
Both companies share a common goal of achieving a new era of interoperability in the blockchain gaming and virtual world space. Currently, Affyn and The Sandbox team are working together to explore interoperability within the open metaverse, allowing for a seamless experience for all communities. With the growing technological demands, this partnership will elevate the web3 ecosystem by supporting creators and collaborators, educating newcomers, and communicating to give more visibility towards metaverses and their use cases.
In Affyn’s upcoming keynote event, Evolution, on 10 May 2023, Affyn will reveal more details on their new game that is set to launch this year and announce The Sandbox as one of the main web3 ecosystem partners.
