To celebrate the 47th anniversary of Muhammad Ali’s historic ‘Thrilla in Manila’ fight on October 1, the first set of playable avatar boxers in ‘Muhammad Ali – The Next Legends’ Artificial Intelligence metaverse boxing game will be released. Altered State Machine (ASM), Non-Fungible Labs (NFL) and Muhammad Ali Enterprises (MAE) are the parties behind this project.
The first Muhammad Ali game avatars
In the new game, ‘Muhammad Ali – The Next Legends’, players need boxing avatars, as well as AI ‘brains’, which are NFTs, to train and compete.
The debut release of boxing avatars will be part of an upcoming release of the limited-edition ‘Pro Pack’ bundle. Those who purchase one of these ‘Pro Packs’ on October 1st will automatically advance beyond the Beginner round. Once it officially starts next year, it will happen.
To clarify, the first avatars are Rookie (obtainable via an unlimited coin after the drop) and Pro (claimable via the ‘Pro Pack’ coin). Dan, Champ, and Legend (both of which are only available by leveling up).
Thanks to ASM And NFL, users can have input on their boxer’s appearance by introducing a new coin experience. The new technology will respond and change as users deal with questions about themselves. Users also get another level of input about their character that affects their personality and faction, a kind of consciousness.
The Game: ‘Muhamad Ali – The Next Legends’
The world’s first-ever metaverse AI boxing game “Muhammad Ali — The Next Legends” was born out of Altered State Machine’s long-standing partnership with Authentic Brands Group (ABG) and MAE.
When the game launches next year, players will be able to train their unique boxers in the skills they need for the game. They will do this to compete in a fully AI-driven, metaverse combat experience.
As players progress through the game, levels of complexity will increase as their boxers also increase in skill. Following in the footsteps of the ‘GOAT’, the aim of the game will be to train and develop the boxer. This is to win matches against other boxers and eventually become “The Next Legend”.
