Bored Ape NFT Developer Yuga Labs Prepares to Create Blockchain Game Projects
JAKARTA – Yuga Labs, the developer of the popular NFT collection Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC), plans to introduce a new NFT game. Greg Solano, co-founder of Yuga Labs, recently provided an “update” via his official X account.
This announcement was greeted with enthusiasm by the owners of BAYC (Bored Ape Yacht Club) and cryptocurrency enthusiasts in general. Solano explained that this update is part of his commitment to provide periodic reports for 10 days to maintain transparency with the community.
Yuga Labs, which currently holds the title of the largest digital collection franchise in the cryptocurrency space, is working to offer a more concrete product. Solano admits that his company hasn’t yet reached a sweet spot in terms of product development, but he remains optimistic about a number of innovations it’s working on.
Solano announced that the first project was ODK. ODK is billed as “the best way to create and monetize 3D games or social experiences in the cryptocurrency world.” The focus on ODK indicates that Yuga Labs is intensely innovating in the field of gaming.
In addition to ODK, Yuga Labs is also working on Project Dragon. Solano explained that Project Dragon is a shooting game set in the absurd story of team combat. Interestingly, this game will be made using the same tools as ODK.
Outside of the game project, Yuga Labs has also prepared “ApeFest”, a special event that will bring together thousands of Bored Ape owners from 56 countries around the world. The event will be held in a historic 15th century monastery. To liven up the event, Yuga Labs plans to create and distribute special merchandise.
Solano also revealed that the Yuga Labs team is exploring integrating BAYC with physical goods. This step aims to further strengthen the value and usability of the Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT collection.
Yuga Labs relies on NFTs and gaming
Not long ago, Yuga Labs became a hot topic of conversation following the company’s restructuring decision accompanied by the termination of employment (PHK) of some employees. In the midst of this restructuring phase, Yuga Labs has actually stepped up its game in the gaming realm.
One of the innovations under development is Dookey Dash, a simple game with a “play to earn” mechanism that has the potential to reward its players with 1 million US dollars (around 16 billion rupees).
Overall, Yuga Labs is working to expand its cooperation network with various parties to bring more games that can attract users. With these efforts, Yuga Labs aims to further strengthen the existence of BAYC and its ecosystem in the future.
