The Sandbox Announces Dubaiverse Metaverse Project

The Sandbox, a subsidiary of top metaverse and Animoca Brands, has revealed that it will launch a Dubai-themed Dubaiverse. 38 million dollars.

The Dubaiverse project looks like a Hong Kong mega-city located in a sandbox meta-space. The Hong Kong model, which entered its second phase in April, came about through a series of partnerships with brands and investors in the music and entertainment, education, media, culture, tourism and cultural industries. Partners include venture capital firm Brinc, Web3 Ventures MADWorld, Tatler Asia, Regal Hotels Group, Iconic Ocean Park and others.

Dubaiverse will also be built through partnerships with local companies within the city. Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) Dubai’s cryptocurrency regulator is the first to buy a plot in the Dubai-themed metaverse, said parent company Animoca Brands.

GCEX’s Dubai managing director Mehtap Onder said the company will also take a step forward in the metaverse by offering education on virtual assets.
