Collaborative C2E Metaverses

KRAFTON Partners with NAVER Z to Launch the Migaloo Metaverse

— April 22, 2023 — Tech
To launch the new Migaloo metaverse, South Korean developer KRAFTON has established a partnership with augmented reality startup NAVER Z. Both businesses will work together on the Migaloo Web3 metaverse gaming platform. KRAFTON will provide its knowledge in publishing and game creation, while NAVER Z will concentrate on strategy, establishing alliances, and acquisitions.

Chang-wook Kim, CEO of NAVER Z, said: “We will grow Migaloo as a new metaverse platform where creators can realize new values in an NFT-based ecosystem based on their own creations.”

Although there is little information available about the project, the Migaloo metaverse may be similar to Roblox but with the added perks of digital NFTs. When Migaloo launches, it will leverage the create-to-earn (C2E) business model, which enables players to make in-game items and trade them for real money.

Migaloo is expected to debut before the end of 2023.
