The Sandbox is Animoca Brands’ flagship game, a sandbox game that builds a metaverse. At the end of last year, after the launch of the alpha game, the rapid user growth was detonated. But its user base and market value are declining due to the public test version game’s delay in opening to the public. The game ecosystem needs constant user participation and maintenance to be stable. Footprint Analytics – The Sandbox Market CapPhantom Galaxies is a AAA game set to launch its beta in Q3. Gameplay will revolve around an open-world online space sim with fast-paced mech shooters and a compelling story. Players can customize the game’s mechs and ships to go on missions, solve puzzles, and collect resources to craft.
The end of last year was a time when metaverse projects were at their peak, and this sector had the most potential. But as the metaverse project, The Sandbox did not go ahead as planned again, the slow launch of Phantom Galaxies will also gradually lose attention.
