Bwaaaah! Ubisoft’s Rabbids are joining The Sandbox Metaverse!
We partnered with Ubisoft to introduce Ubisoft game IP elements to The Sandbox metaverse. Ubisoft will have its own ESTATE with interactive experiences.
Voxel characters and items will also be available for players and creators to incorporate into their own experiences using The Sandbox’s free VoxEdit and Game Maker creation tools.
“We’re excited to bring the Rabbids to The Sandbox community and to empower players to create their own original experiences incorporating elements of our gaming IP. We can’t wait to see how they make the Rabbids’ world their own. The Sandbox is an obvious new fun playground addition to the long list of Rabbids world invasions, and a great opportunity for Ubisoft to experiment a metaverse experience for its brands. — Guillaume Mammi, Senior Manager of New Business and Partnerships at Ubisoft.
Work is already underway to create voxelized versions of Rabbids’ characters and items. The following video showcases a glimpse of the eager Rabbids as they prepare to enter The Sandbox map to appear in the Ubisoft LAND and join original experiences created by players:
“We want to partner with IPs and brands that players already love, such as those of Ubisoft’s world-leading games, to keep bringing fresh new experiences to players alongside popular characters and items creators can use in their own original adventures in The Sandbox. We’re proud to welcome Ubisoft, a forward-thinking company that understands and respects the open metaverse community, to The Sandbox as we work together to create new possibilities for players, fans, and creators.” — Sébastien Borget, COO and Co-Founder of The Sandbox.
“I’m very proud that Ubisoft, one of the most innovative gaming brands that’s globally known for creating numerous iconic game franchises, has chosen The Sandbox for their very first move into the metaverse. — Bertrand Levy, VP Global Partnerships of The Sandbox.
Part virtual real estate, part amusement park, The Sandbox fully embraces the idea of the metaverse as a continuous shared digital space where worlds and heroes collide to make magic. Ubisoft joins over 200 existing partnerships including The Walking Dead, Snoop Dogg, Adidas, Warner Music Group, Deadmau5, Steve Aoki, Richie Hawtin, The Smurfs, Care Bears, Atari, ZEPETO, and CryptoKitties, all following The Sandbox team’s vision of empowering players to create their own experiences using both original and well-known characters and worlds.
