Investing.com -- Wilder World is collaborating with Samsung (KS:005930) to bring its metaverse gaming experience to a wider audience through Samsung’s smart TVs. This initiative is part of Samsung’s Web3 expansion, specifically under its Gen|3|Gate project, which seeks to introduce Web3 functionalities to its television sets and other consumer electronics.
The partnership primarily leverages Samsung’s broad distribution networks to introduce Wilder World—a metaverse platform often likened to a Web3 version of the popular video game Grand Theft Auto—to numerous households. The roadmap includes the gradual integration of Wilder World within the Samsung ecosystem, starting with featuring Wilder World assets and information on various Samsung platforms such as its official website, a dedicated Gen3 website, and Samsung NFT Gallery app, which is available on all Samsung Smart TVs.
Additionally, Wilder World will participate in an exclusive Web3 TV bundle sale by Samsung, offering a Wilder World NFT to fifteen customers who purchase the bundle. The overarching goal of this collaboration is to ensure Wilder World's global availability on Samsung’s TVs and devices.
The collaboration is set to expose Samsung TV users to Web3 products and communities, broadening the audience for these technologies beyond the typical demographics associated with Web3 and gaming. Other entities involved in launching GEN3RATOR NFTs with Samsung include the Belvedere Museum, Polygon Labs, World of Women, Ledger, and Illuvium.
“We’re thrilled to be working with Samsung to make Wilder World more accessible through their smart TVs. We are creating a next-gen gaming metaverse with an emphasis on immersion and realism, and Samsung’s global distribution and cutting-edge hardware will allow Wilder World to be experienced at its best. It is our mission to make Wilder World accessible to all, and this alliance is key to realizing that vision,” said Wilder World co-founder Frank Wilder.
Wilder World is actively pursuing partnerships to realize its vision of creating a vast metaverse experience. This includes a collaboration with Epic Games to list Wilder World on the Epic Games Store to increase its accessibility to gamers. The platform has also integrated with technologies from Nvidia’s GeForce Now and SuperVerse to engage a wider community. Additionally, to address the scalability challenges often associated with Web3 MMOs, Wilder World has developed Meowchain in cooperation with Polygon and Celestia to support millions of users with minimal transaction costs.
