One of, if not the best metaverse platforms, The Sandbox, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, is launching Alpha Season 3 sometime this month. Alpha Season 3 builds on the successful Alpha Season 2, which attracted over 325,000 players.
Alpha Season 3: A Recap
To sum up the words of The Sandbox’s COO, Sébastien Borget, “Alpha Season 3 brings more multiplayer experiences, more partners, more creators, more rewards for owners and players through play-and-earn mechanisms, more collections and more excitement”.
Alpha Season 3 will simply be a bigger and better version of previous seasons of The Sandbox. Solo and multiplayer content will be featured, including experiences from brand partners such as Snoop Dogg, The Walking Dead, Deadmau5, Sueco, Warner Music Group, Ubisoft’s Rabbids, BAYC, World of Women, The Smurfs, Steve Aoki, Metapride, Care Bears and Atari.
Throughout the season, players will be able to level up and participate in sweepstakes to earn Alpha Season 3 Passes that give a chance to win up to 500 SAND, climb the leaderboards, and earn SAND rewards.
For more details, The Sandbox has released a season 3 trailer for you to check out YouTube.
With season 3, The Sandbox seems to further cement itself as the best metaverse platform.
The Sandbox Alpha Season 3 will be Web3’s largest interoperability use case to date, enabling more than 140,000 NFT owners from collections such as Bored Ape Yacht Club, Doggies, World of Women, CoolCats, Clone X, and Aoki to seamlessly use their digital assets of Web3 communities and use them directly as avatars in The Sandbox. This marks the beginning of a new era in true ownership and consistency in online identity across platforms.
Why the sandbox?
With many metaverse platforms around, it’s easy to wonder why people prefer The Sandbox over the others, especially their competitor, Decentraland. There are probably a few answers to this.
First, their partnerships are unreal. The number of big companies and celebrities they work with is unparalleled. From Adidas and the Walking Dead to The Smurfs and Care Bears, or even Snoop Dogg and Steve Aoki.
Also, the gameplay is perhaps the most developed of them all, with huge teams working tirelessly to improve it on a daily basis. Now, with Alpha Season 3, they’re building further.
About the sandbox
The Sandbox is one of the largest metaverse gaming platforms. They probably have the largest market share next to Decentraland.
The partners of the Sandbox are Snoop Dogg, The Walking Dead, Adidas and The Smurfs. In addition, many large collections have created voxel, Sandbox-ready avatars, such as CyberKongz with their CyberKongz VX collection.
It has also shown that it is clearly capable of organizing events, just like its major competitor, Decentraland.
Alpha Season 3 is just their next step to prove themselves as the top name in the space.
