Anime Hit ‘Attack on Titan’ coming to ‘The Sandbox’
The beloved Japanese anime and manga sensation "Attack on Titan" is poised to make its debut in the realm of cryptocurrency gaming, thanks to a strategic partnership with The Sandbox, a prominent game based on the Ethereum metaverse. This exciting union was revealed on Monday, paving the way for the creation of a dedicated "Attack on Titan Land" within the expansive virtual universe of The Sandbox.
In conjunction with entities Minto and Copro Corporation, The Sandbox has been granted the green light by intellectual property owner Kodansha Ltd. to mint NFTs and forge a themed enclave. This collaboration seeks to vividly recreate the franchise's dystopian setting in an innovative, interactive manner.
Sebastien Borget, co-founder and COO of The Sandbox stated, ‘Attack on Titan’ transcends its origin as a dark fantasy Japanese manga series. It has captivated audiences globally, evolving into a phenomenon that spans anime and cinema.
This partnership is set to feature a LAND sale, offering enthusiasts the chance to acquire virtual plots of land within the "Attack on Titan" zone of The Sandbox via NFTs. This specially themed zone, along with its unique activities, is anticipated to be unveiled later this year.
With an impressive distribution of over 100 million manga copies worldwide, "Attack on Titan" has secured an extensive, devoted following. The narrative centers around Eren Jaeger and his comrades as they engage in a fierce struggle against the colossal Titan beings.
The Sandbox operates as an Ethereum metaverse game that emphasizes the ownership of digital land and assets, empowering virtual landowners to construct, showcase, and profit from their individual segments of this digital landscape. The platform has successfully engaged in partnerships with a wide array of entities and celebrities, including Snoop Dogg, Gucci, Paris Hilton, The Smurfs, and Warner Music Group.
