Singapore has officially launched its first locally developed Metaverse platform, Xctualyfe. The new platform was developed by Xctuality, and although it was home-grown in Singapore and designed to appeal to a Singaporean audience, users from all over the world are welcome to join and engage with one another on the platform.
Users can now register and begin immediately exploring a number of virtual worlds in Xctualyfe, many of which include fun mini-games and even a virtual version of Singapore's National Day Parade (NDP) experience. The 'Obstacle Course' is one of a number of games included in Xctualyfe; the game sees players compete with one another in a floating ninja warrior course, which they must complete in a specific time.
Other standout elements of the metaverse include parkour activities beneath the neon night city of Mainstreet and a unique treasure hunt for mystery boxes that carry digital tokens.
