We are proud to announce our second wave of partners that have claimed stakes in The Sandbox metaverse. With each new round of LAND presale comes a new round of partners and here are the ones for Round 2:
For this round we’ve built several partnerships from widely known crypto companies: MakerDAO, CryptoKitties, Flow, Dedalord, Token Pocket and Matic to worldwide famous tech brands such as Opera. Up and coming anticipated blockchain games: Planetarium, Light Trail Rush, Stryking Entertainment, CryptoWars, Reality Clash, Crypto Sword and Magic, Ember Sword, PlayDapp, Blockchain Cuties Universe and Neon District.

With the LANDs claimed, our partners will have the possibility to create gaming experiences on top of their ESTATEs and/or just create a space with elements inspired from their respective projects. They will also be greatly helping in creating a better and overall more diverse gaming experience in The Sandbox.

We plan to integrate Maker’s Dai stablecoin in The Sandbox marketplace. In addition, Maker will also be one of our partners claiming stakes in The Sandbox metaverse! The collaboration will entail the creation of a “Dai City ‘’ gaming platform dedicated to Maker and its stablecoin. One of the possibilities is to build the city progressively with buildings and a decor based on specific events or achievements related to Maker. Dai City will also serve as a social meeting point for the Maker community to meet up and chat.
- CryptoKitties and Flow
From the same studio, DapperLabs, CryptoKittties and Flow will be coming to The Sandbox. Both will have a separate ESTATE assigned to them to build unique gaming experiences and . Through this partnership, The Sandbox and CryptoKitties will work towards having ESTATES dedicated to their community of players. In this space we could see the creation of a special game experience that is faithful to the CryptoKitties identity.

For this partnership, we plan to build a voxel-based ESTATE dedicated to the sports gaming platform stryking.io. Sports fans would have a place within The Sandbox ecosystem to bond and enjoy games together. We are excited to see where this unique partnership will take us and what game experiences will come out of it.
Reality Clash will come to The Sandbox metaverse and should build an original game that will be exclusive to our platform. Players will be able to experiment in this dedicated space with elements of the Reality Clash game. We can’t wait to see all the options that will come out of this partnership.

The Sandbox will thus become a part of the 2200+ dApps that are currently listed on Token Pocket thanks to their built-in dApp browser, increasing the visibility of The Sandbox game in the process.
