What is LAND in The Sandbox?

LANDS are digital pieces of real estate in The Sandbox metaverse that players can buy to build experiences on top of. Once you own a LAND, you will be able to populate it with Games and Assets. Each LAND is a unique (non-fungible) token lying on the public Ethereum blockchain (ERC-721). For more detailed information on LAND tokens, read, this article. Also, for a thorough analysis of LAND token economics, please read here.

The LAND Presale 4.3 will be the very last presale to take place before the launch of the public round at the end of the year.

LANDS will be sold at a 10% Discount; it is the last time there will ever be discounts on LANDS.

In addition to this exclusive presale, this round introduces new and rare ASSETS, NFT characteristics, and new partners!

LAND Presale 4.3 launches on November 12th at 1:00 PM GMT.

Similar to the first rounds, special LANDs will be sold in the form of Premium LAND, which will also include Premium ASSETS.

What are Premium LANDS?

A Premium LAND is a single parcel of LAND that features specific characteristics, including Premium ASSETS. They will appear as Yellow LANDS on the map and are defined by two main characteristics:

  • Premium Location: Each Premium LAND is located close to either a Partner, an IP, or a TSB Estate. These locations are highly likely to attract more visitors thanks to partner visibility as well as the Transportation System and the recently introduced Portals:
  • Premium ASSETS: Premium LANDs are pre-assigned with a bundle of exclusive ASSETS to kickstart game creation. When purchasing a Premium LAND, buyers will also receive 4 premium ASSETS.

Each Premium LAND includes 1 Common, 1 Rare, 1 Epic and 1 Legendary Premium ASSET. Each Legendary ASSET will showcase a unique set of attributes, behavior, and skins, all of which have a limited scarcity of 200 copies.

Premium LAND of this upcoming LAND presale will contain Smurf™ premium ASSETS, among others…
