Leasing Web3 Artificial Intelligence (AI) company, Altered State Machine (ASM,) on Thursday, May 26th, announced a partnership with Mohammed Ali Enterprises, and Authentic Brands Group (ABG,) which will see the collaborators develop and release the world’s first metaverse boxing game. Mohammed Ali – The Next Legends, as the game will be called, will be the first ABG brand within the ASM ecosystem, and will be driven by the firm’s (ASM) Artificial Intelligence protocol while the title’s visual, and character design will be under the charge of Web3 creative team, Non-Fungible Labs.
“ABG’s portfolio of world-leading brands make them the ideal partner to introduce NFT-curious consumers to the metaverse. Our Non-Fungible Intelligence powers and revolutionizes web3 gaming by allowing NFT owners to train their characters, producing limitless possibilities and interoperable use cases in the metaverse.” – David McDonald, CEO of ASM.
The game will see players take on the role of a trainer as they take control of one of the thousands of unique boxers in the Mohammed Ali – The Next Legends metaverse boxing title. The Play-to-Earn. (P2E) game will see users train, and compete their fighters in a world based on the legendary Mohammed Ali’s fighting legacy.
Each fighter will be unique and NFT (Non-Fungible Token) based, fitted with NFT-based brains and personalities. One can view and follow updates on the game’s development journey at www.thenextlegends.xyz.
When the game is finally available, users will be able to collect uniquely designed NFT fighters powered by ASM’s AI protocol, train, as well as compete in a completely AI-driven, Web3 (metaverse) experience. At some point, players will have to join the ASM AI brain, with a chosen character through a unique component of the ASM protocol, “Artificial Intelligence Gyms”.
Owners of NFT fighters will need to train the brain on all the skills befitting a future champion; agility, jabs, hooks, endurance, sparring, and stance. The premise of the game is to train one’s 3D fighter with the aim of becoming The Next Legend, following in the footsteps of former 3-time World Heavyweight Champion, Muhammed Ali.
Marc Rosen, President of Entertainment at ABG stated, “ABG is delighted to kick off this unique partnership with ASM by using the strength of our brands to positively contribute to storytelling behind ASM’s innovative technology.” While Alex Smeele, CEO at Non-Fungible Labs commented, “The Next Legends project is a huge endeavor as we are working to ensure every single aspect and character is unique and one-of-a-kind. These boxers have distinct personalities and characteristics and it’s been an adventure for our team to build.”
