The Sandbox game franchise is one of the worlds largest independent user-generated content and gaming platforms, with 40 million downloads and over one million monthly active users.
Animoca intends to capitalise on the popularity of user-generated content (UGC) gaming by giving players the benefits of true digital ownership over their creations in the form of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), allowing players to trade or sell NFTs without restrictions.
NFTs are virtual tokens for digital scarcity, security and authenticity, and in The Sandbox they represent objects, items, and real estate in the game world.
Expected launch in Q2 2020[hhmc]
