Introduction to BYTE CITY: Next-Generation Social Gaming 🎮

BYTE CITY, built on blockchain technology, ushers forward a new era of virtual experiences across the metaverse. For those who love community-based MMORPGs, or Virtual World Simulations, this is particularly for you! On this interactive online haven, connect with like-minded NFT enthusiasts, crypto explorers, and more from all over the world.

The city’s landscape is based in a cyberpunk-ish, retro-inspired metropolis that embodies the charm of the 1980’s. Teleport yourself into a world that never sleeps, with neon lights illuminating the streets, cassette tapes playing tunes in the background, and classic arcade games to reignite nostalgic memories.
