Next-Gen GameFi Metaverse Designed to Disrupt the NFT Industry Metaverse is a hot topic in the crypto industry. It is simply a term used to describe a virtual universe where people can interact as they would in the real world.

There are many virtual worlds that can be created from the metaverse. Each one has its own purpose. Some metaverses can only be used for one purpose, while others have multiple functions, such as music, learning and gaming. Gaming metaverses are becoming more popular than ever. They include trending concepts such as GameFi, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), or Web3. While there are many projects of the first generation, the lack of quality graphics, integrated games and other opportunities increases the potential for next-generation projects. Artyfact is only one of many projects that aims to change the narrative. Artyfact is a metaverse that has been built using Unreal Engine 5 instead of platforms created before. This tool is said to be capable to create immersive experiences and advanced photorealistic visuals. Artyfact is open to all gamers, NFT collectors avid, artists, influencers and brands.

What is Artyfact?

Artyfact, a metaverse project, aims to revolutionize NFT markets using two main areas of its virtual universe. Artyfact is divided into two areas: urban and gaming. Urban areas are places in the virtual world where citizens have the ability to buy assets such as NFT avatars or virtual lands. NFT Exhibitions, concerts and learning sessions are all available to users. The gaming areas on the other hand are special zones in which users can play supported pay-to-earn Games within the Artyfact metaverse. They can also purchase game assets as NFTs, and then sell them. These game genres include race racing, battle royals, and adventure.

Artyfact Features

The Artyfact metaverse has some core features, including: Artyfact citizens interested in gaming may play the NFT-based games that are available. Gamers are required to place a bet in the platform’s native token ARTY before participating in games, and the winners will receive the prize pool. Gamers will be able to purchase and sell game assets as NFTs. Artyfact metaverse citizens can buy new avatars on the market, create their own avatars or export existing avatars. Digital clothes can be worn by avatars in urban areas. Artyfact allows NFT marketplaces from other countries to connect with it. The project will create special zones in urban areas that facilitate the creation 3D NFT marketplaces. Artyfact also offers its own marketplace, where citizens can sell or buy NFTs and avatars as well as land plots, apparels and other digital assets. Artyfact users can host and attend events in the metaverse, just like they do in real life. There are three main types of events in the virtual world — public, private, and VIP. Public events are open to all Artyfact citizens. Private events are available only to ticket holders. VIP events can only be accessed by ARTY token holders or stakers. The Artyfact also offers virtual billboards and other opportunities for influencers and brands, including co-operative gaming, event sponsorship, virtual merchandise creation, and many more.

Launch of the ICO and ARTY Token

ARTY is the native token for the Artyfact Metaverse. It can hold a total of 100,000,000 tokens. It is the governance token for Artyfact DAO and powers all activities in the ecosystem. Citizens can use ARTY for payment of items and services, to earn staking rewards, to vote in DAO and other premium benefits. Artyfact’s initial coin offering (ICO), will be conducted in four phases. The first phase is currently underway on their Launchpad. After all rounds of fundraising are over, the token will be available for trading at $0.65.
