My Neighbor Alice, one of the top metaverse Web3 games, will join forces with the Pudgy Penguins NFT collection. The game will add a new Pudgy Land region, with special quests and full integration of all NFT collections.
My Neighbor Alice, one of the most ambitious Web3 games, will join forces with the Pudgy Penguins project to expand its metaverse. All the Penguins from the NFT collections will be available as playable characters, with a dedicated Pudgy Land environment and special quests. The game aims to revive hype after a few years of slower development for Web3 gaming projects.
Pudgy Penguins will come to life in new game
All three Pudgy Penguins collections will be rendered as 3D characters and will explore the open world of My Neighbor Alice. Pudgy Land will be exclusively accessible to avatar holders. The metaverse will be a meetup place for holders of the original 8,888 Pudgy Penguins, the 22,222 Lil Pudgys and 7,399 Pudgy Rods.
The game will be open from June 17, with a new set of missions and incentives.
“With this partnership, we’re pushing the envelope when it comes to interoperability. We haven’t just integrated the Pudgy Penguins brand but have made all 40,000 items awaken as native 3D assets within My Neighbor Alice. Now, Pudgy holders can see their own unique NFTs come to life in-game, interact with the world, enjoy exclusive gameplay and even create new experiences for others. That’s the power of connected ecosystems and a big step towards the open metaverse,”
Steve Hassenpflug, VP of Games at ChromaWay and My Neighbor Alice.
My Neighbor Alice launched as a BNB Smart Chain game, though it later migrated to Chromia, a specialized Web3 network. Pudgy Penguins has its collections on Ethereum and launched its native Pengu token on Solana.
Pudgy Penguins holders will access special quests
NFT holders will also be able to craft individualized in-game emotes. The emotes will become tradable items in the game, further opening the opportunity to monetize NFT ownership.
Some of the features will be open to the entire Alice and MNA token community. Those will include seasonal quests distributing winter-themed rewards. Pudgy holders, however, will be able to take up special quests, awarded by Pudgy-themed NPCs. The game will include additional themed clothing and accessories.
Pudgy Penguins will also help the launch of a new gaming season on My Neighbor Alice. The partnership is the first of a series of integrations with popular NFT collections. My Neighbor Alice may revive the NFT space, as it uses formerly hot collections with new in-game utility.
Pudgy Penguins remains the third most active NFT collection, with a price floor of 9.30 ETH. Previously, the NFT raised its floor price as high as 100 ETH during the point farming season for the PENGU airdrop.
The latest collaboration shows Web3 gaming has not been abandoned, and viable projects can rebuild their user base. My Neighbor Alice is currently running a four-month point-farming campaign, offering additional quests for a 500,000 ALICE airdrop. The game will also add new islands to its metaverse, also starting from June 17.
Currently, native MNA tokens are trying to bounce from their lows, rising to $0.46.
