Metaverse Games See New Innovations with SpaceY 2025 and Star Atlas Game

Those who are passionate about gaming are already familiar with the concept of a metaverse, a virtual system that allows users to maintain unique digital identities and assets owned within the metaverse. While it has already cut its teeth as a gaming concept, metaverses are also becoming popular outside of gaming, with companies like Facebook and Microsoft making strides towards developing metaverse concepts for their business models. 

Within its original home of the gaming sector, a number of innovative metaverse games have emerged, two of which are SpaceY 2025 and Star Atlas. These games have become fan favorites in recent times, and for good reason. 

The SpaceY 2025 Metaverse 

The baseline concept of SpaceY is humanity’s immigration to Mars, a topic that has seen more attention recently thanks to films like The Martian and the ambition of Tesla CEO Elon Musk.

There is also an emphasis on the monetization of assets and even time within the SpaceY metaverse as well as interaction with the things and places within it. These include migrations, building homes, building defenses, and gathering NFTs. New maps are added to the game every month as well as rewards that are distributed among players, 

The fund for this reward comes from the revenue generated from the game, 80% of which are shared among the top 10% of players in the game. Should a player receive the reward, it can be used within the game to buy assets, land, and so on.

The token (SpaceY’s native SPAY token) is also a tool of governance within the metaverse. Token holders can vote on the direction of the game, distributions of rewards, and so on. 

After completing its first round of funding that saw it raise $4.65 million, SpaceY is now in its second funding round and looking to raise tens of millions of dollars. So far, this second round has seen support from Huobi Ventures and OKEx Blockdream Ventures.

The Star Atlas Metaverse

Star Atlas is a game that applies a futuristic storyline to create an interactive gaming universe for payers.  The 3A-level space hegemony MMORPG Metaverse game is set in 2026 and every player can become a creator within the metaverse. 

Players interact with this universe by mining, construction, refining minerals, and so on for rewards. They can also explore this virtual world and discover other races of people. 

The larger goal of Star Atlas is to promote the monetization of virtual worlds the same way that the real world is monetized and this is evident in the game setup. All the assets that are owned in-game can be converted into legal tender. 

Furthermore, people in Star Atlas can choose a profession for their avatars and can earn a virtual income from that. The higher-paying incomes come with a higher risk and the players all fall into three different camps. 

Starship battles will take place frequently within the game and those who win can claim loot from the losers and also destroy their assets. The entirety of the ecosystem is also based around NFTs as every in-game asset is represented as an NFT. These include spacecraft, crew members, parts, and even land. Besides these NFTs, there are also two tokens, ATLAS and POLIS, that are at the center of this ecosystem

Finally, Star Atlas is currently being backed by companies like Moonwhale Ventures, Serum, LD Capital, and Yield Guild Games.

Metaverses of the Future

Gaming as a sector is always evolving and it seems that metaverses are going to be the future of the industry. With games like SpaceY 2025 and Star Atlas, the capabilities of blockchain in metaverses are being actively explored, and moving forward, this is only going to expand.
