About The Sandbox

The Sandbox gained popularity through its two successful mobile games, The Sandbox (2011) and The Sandbox Evolution (2016), amassing a total of 40 million downloads on iOS and Android. In 2018, developer/Publisher Pixowl made the strategic decision to transition this thriving User Generated Content (UGC) gaming IP and its extensive creator community from mobile to the blockchain ecosystem.

The objective was to innovate the gaming industry by empowering creators with genuine ownership of their creations as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and incentivizing their engagement in the ecosystem. The Sandbox is now described as a virtual metaverse where players can build, own, and monetize their gaming experiences on the Ethereum blockchain using the platform's utility token SAND.

Introducing The Wildlands Neighborhood

The Wildlands is positioned between the previously released Defender District and Brawlers Ring. The Defender District is known for featuring Attack on Titan, while Brawlers Ring includes content related to King Kong of Skull Island. According to The Sandbox, The Wildlands aims to blend elements of history, legendary icons, and global culture. This new neighborhood concludes the AdventureWorld theme, which began its LAND distribution with the Defender District in late 2024.

Purchasing a plot in The Wildlands allows users to create their own experiences in close proximity to branded zones inspired by major entertainment and cultural partners. The neighborhood is also home to partner studios Reality+ Studio and Vaux Machina, as well as winners from the Alpha Season 5 Game Jam, a builder competition that concluded on April 29. A live awards show highlighting top creators is scheduled for May 17.
