London-based start-up, MetaGod is launching a GameFi-powered metaverse platform. The platform will include a complete ecosystem and a digitally rendered VR metaverse. It will specifically allow users to create and control their metaverse, focusing on gamification, social interaction, entertainment, and play-to-earn mechanics.
MetaGod said, “The internet is evolving to a stage that is more immersive, intuitive, and one step closer to completely immersive virtual reality experiences…[] This is leading towards a dedicated economy for play-to-earn blockchain games, which is growing at an exponential rate.”
According to the press release MetaGod plans to release a game based on the Monopoly card game, which will offer unlimited gameplay hours while “allowing players to earn in many ways,” as the platform’s first title.
MetaGod Ecosystem
MetaGod promises the platform’s ecosystem will include PvP, strategy and Multiplayer titles. Additionally, the platform will include an SDK allowing publishers to deploy various types of games with which users can participate.
According to MetaGod CEO , Emma Quinn, “The ecosystem consists of NFT based God Avatar Characters, Gamefi based play to earn offerings, a metaverse whereby users can play and immerse themselves like real world, game development and publication modules, Socializing Platform, Voting protocol for democratized governance and a dedicated marketplace for trading of NFT assets.”
MetaGod’s ecosystem consists of multiple dimensional maps, with each map hosting games by different publishers. Players can socialize and play various games on each map.
Currently, MetaGod is offering dedicated presale rounds for early adopters. The first round requires a minimum purchase of 25,000 $MTG token, while the second round has a minimum of 20,000 $MTG.
MetaGod’s ecosystem is being deployed via the Binance Smart Chain Network. Binance recently partnered with Animoca to launch a $200 million GameFi fund in the same vein.
The company believes the play-to-earn model can provide players with some financial security. MetaGod CFO Arthur Andersen says, “The MetaGod team believes that the Play-to-Earn model is opening a wide new door on solutions to ease the difficulties brought by the pandemic and equipping players with experience and the ability to manage their finances before the pandemic enters the Crypto Market.”
