The Company Continues to Develop its Ultra Realistic Metaverse Offering and Custom Tools to Allow Partners to Create Highly Customizable and Engaging Experiences for Their Customers
VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 9, 2022 /CNW/ – Looking Glass Labs Ltd. (“LGL” or the “Company”) (NEO: NFTX) (AQSE: NFTX) (OTC: LGSLF) (FRA: H1N), a leading Web3 platform specializing in immersive metaverse environments, play-to-earn tokenization and blockchain monetization strategies, announces that its wholly owned subsidiary House of Kibaa (“HoK“) has developed the technical platform and preliminary suite of tools to create tailored brand activations inside of its metaverse offering.
The metaverse industry is set to generate up to $5 trillion in value by 2030.1 LGL is working swiftly to provide the software tools to help maximize the industry’s mainstream adoption and commercial growth. The Company is currently working to establish partnerships with a target set of companies and organizations to further cement the Company’s ultra realistic metaverse as a revenue driving platform.
LGL’s metaverse offering currently has 11 environments that will be fully customizable. The Company is focused on fast-tracking its ability to create entire worlds, with architecture and experiences bespoke to any brand or creator activation. Consumers of all experience levels are expected to be able to easily access these digital metaverse activations based on the Company’s incorporation of Unreal Engine 5, Unity 4 and pixel streaming, with plans to provide both mobile and desktop flexibility.
Metaverse experiences are being planned to range from new product activations to entire worlds built for corporate clients. The types of activations include but are not limited to:
-
Bespoke virtual brand worlds;
-
Custom experiences in the pre-built LGL land types;
-
Gated and ticketed digital experiences including festivals, concerts, meet and greets, and more;
-
Immersive digital live streams; and
-
Retail and product drop events.
The Company is also in the process of developing partnerships with media companies, marketing organizations, automotive brands, fashion companies and others, in order to create the most diverse and realistic metaverse experience for all users and brands. This is expected to allow brands to create further value by monetizing existing products, services and/or intellectual properties. This initiative is also being pursued in order for LGL to capture incremental revenue through ongoing royalty streams and product sales.
Management Commentary
“Bringing brand activations to the Pocket Dimension metaverse for multinational companies is something that we envisioned a while ago, and are excited to make a reality in the near future for our corporate clients, for Pocket Dimension users, and for the community at large. We are always thinking about our current and future metaverse stakeholders and are continuously striving to give them the best experience possible,” said Dorian Banks, Chief Executive Officer at LGL. “Creating vivid and ultra realistic brand activations in the metaverse is just one of many projects that our team is working on.
