Denver, Colorado - June 28, 2022 | The STARL Metaverse team is excited to announce that STARL Metaverse, including Warp Nexus, will be upgrading to Unreal Engine 5 for our one year birthday event on July 1st, 2022. Warp Nexus will be the first blockchain game to implement UE5. As part of our celebration, STARL players will have access to the first Warp Nexus space station to discover and learn more about the new galactic species. These are the beings that players will share the universe with as they explore Warp Nexus. 


Warp Nexus continues to evolve the space station and combat simulations. “Our goal is to build an environment which fosters discovery. The vastness of space is not just a battlefield, it is a frontier. We want that reflected for players. The station gives them a place to learn and read up on what they may encounter.” Scott Brown, Lead Designer.


STARL’s metaverse hosts wild concerts with thousands of fans. It also brings solitude and mindfulness to the virtual space. Meditation is an excellent and proven method to reduce stress and take some downtime, with the metaverse being an ideal location to escape for some peace and quiet. STARL will also be adding in a meditation room for players to discover on their journey through space.


STARL wants everyone to get the chance at some birthday presents, so they are teaming up with Secret Lab, Starbucks, Xidax, Adidas, Amoeba Music and Bar & Garden to bring the community contests, giveaways, and special offers on July 1st. As always STARL loves a party - even if it’s for themselves - and no party would be complete without an exclusive 3 hour DJ set in the STARL Arena. Dance around in the metaverse, and your living room, alongside people from all over the world in a dazzling concert hall with spectacular lights and stunning visuals. For more event information follow STARL’s Twitter.
 

The early access version of the STARL Metaverse is now available and free for download from the official site. Everyone is invited to come and check out all the ways that STARL Metaverse is unlike anything else in the universe.

About STARL Metaverse


The STARL Metaverse Project will be an ever-expanding interactive universe based in the vastness of a simulated outer space, where satellites, living modules, custom spacecraft, virtual real estate, character modifications, and more all interact in a vast virtual economy. Imagine joining millions on a virtual space station in a new universe.

 
The first facet of the STARL Metaverse is the STARL Arena - a home for virtual performances from artists around the globe. This incredible multi-functional platform allows players to take their own custom-designed avatars online where they will meet friends in a burgeoning sonic playground for some of the world’s leading musicians and artists. The Arena has partnered with the world-renowned Amoeba Music to showcase incredible artists to everyone around the globe via STARL.

 
Players can jump into a demo to pilot through and try the expanding universe of the space MMO Warp Nexus.  Users will soon also be able to make use of the Starcade to access minigames and earn rewards. STARL will continue to be a home for many user-generated games and activities that will be built by Wyrmbyte and enterprising members of the community.

 
We invite you to share this exciting news with your readers and we’d love to have you talk with the Wyrmbyte and STARL teams about their vision for an open and inclusive Web3.
