The most popular “life simulation” game in the game world, Sims is a game that many players love to play. If you remember, Electronic Arts, the producer of the game, recently made Sims 4 for free and then shared important information about Sims 5, the sequel to the series.
Today, Will Wright, the creator of SimCity and the first Sims game, and the head of the team that developed the game, introduced the new Metaverse world, Voxverse. Let’s take a closer look at the details of this project together.
It will look like Minecraft’s Metaverse game
Based on the NFT project VOX of the Web3 game company Gala Games, this game is actually a Minecraft-looking Metaverse project, in the simplest terms. Will Wright, the owner of the project, stated that the game will be based on VOX characters consisting of cubes and that everything in the universe will consist of cubes in the same way. Wright also mentioned that the world of the game will be cube-shaped.
The VOX world, which consists of 5 sides of a cube, will be the main city of the game on one side, the desert on one side, the sea on the other and cold and snowy on one side. Characters will be able to travel to these points by trains and their own vehicles instead of teleporting as in other Metaverse games.
In the statement, it was stated that there will be portals at certain points in the world of the game, and thanks to these portals, it is possible to switch to universes such as DreamWorkd’s Trolls animated movie and Gala Games’ Walking Dead game.
It will have its own characters and economy.
It has been stated on Voxverse that for players to have a Vox, they must have one of Gala Games’ NFTs. Non-character players will also be able to enter the Voxverse, but will not be able to use features such as getting a job, owning a home, and selling their own creations. Vox users will use all the features in Voxverse for free.
Players will be able to design their own houses and vehicles, as well as build places such as trees, buildings, concert venues and event centers in the game. Using the blueprints to be added to the game, players will be able to make and sell the designs they want using simple sketches.
There will also be two types of economy in the game. Money economy and social economy. The money economy will be used to buy things in the game and participate in events. There are several ways to earn money, the first of which is to dig up and sell the precious metals in the world of the game. The second way is to make designs and sell these designs in the marketplace. In the last option, you can earn money by establishing your own business in the game and employ other players by recruiting employees to your business. In addition, when you are not playing the game, you can have your character work as an NPC in the shop where he works, search for mines or rest at home.
The social economy of the game is progressing with the communication you have with other players. Other players rate you according to the way you talk to the characters and the way you act, so you can be socially admired, trusted, feared or famous.
Will Wright stated that Voxverse is still under construction, but will be available in 2023.
