Pentagon Games will release a digital world on the Tron Web3 network
Pentagon Gamesa Web3 gaming company creating immersive virtual environments has teamed up with Tron DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organization) to create a new digital world on the Tron blockchain.
Pentagon Games said it is working with Tron DAO, a community-driven DAO dedicated to accelerating the decentralization of the Internet through blockchain technology and decentralized applications (dApps), to launch a digital world on the TRON network.
Earlier this year, Pentagon Games raised $6 million in funding from investors including Animoca Brands, Binance Labs, Hyperedge, NFX, Polygon, Republic, Spartan, Tess Ventures, and Yield Guild Games.
The company said the decentralized immersive environment will allow community members to create and customize their own virtual worlds. Accessible on any device – desktop, mobile or VR, users can express themselves through engaging gameplay and social activities.
Designed using Pentagon Games’ award-winning AR, VR and AI technologies, the on-chain digital world will reflect the utility of a 3D marketplace to provide a seamless peek into Tron’s ecosystem brands, including virtual arenas, housing, top KOLs, digital collectibles and other interested parties.
Pentagon Games has announced that it is teaming up with Tron to bring the epic journey of the superhero Novatron to life.
Novatron: The Rift’s Echo tells the story of a scientist-turned-hero, reshaped by a cosmic anomaly and gifted with reality-bending abilities. As he reassembles his shattered identity, Novatron struggles to protect a shattered world. Novatron’s debut marks the beginning of the Blockchain Superheroes (BCSH) collection, a Pentagon Games trademark.
This series of superheroes will be part of a larger set of superheroes that populate the unified 3D world that Pentagon Games is building on Tron. This large-scale experience will ultimately bring together gamified elements and lead to closer interactions between Tron’s community of developers and users.
