VRJAM and Polygon are teaming up to create a VR-based arena in the Metaverse

Award-winning live metaverse entertainment platform VRJAM has announced its partnership with Polygon, the Ethereum scaling blockchain protocol supporting Web3 technology for millions of users, to create “Planet Polygon” alongside the VRJAM open beta platform launch from November 2. The metaverse-based virtual project is launched in conjunction with VRJAM’s native cryptocurrency, VRJAM Coin, which will officially launch on November 30.

Polygon Planet

Planet Polygon is an immersive live event space within the VRJAM platform, where Polygon’s creative team will work with VRJAM to define the next stage in the evolution of esports and virtual live events. Using Polygon’s expertise in blockchain solutions and VRJAM’s advanced virtual world building in the metaverse, the two will create a state-of-the-art live event and esports arena for fans of games from around the world to share unforgettable experiences.

Within Planet Polygon and other VRJAM destinations, users can use VRJAM Coin, VRJAM’s native cryptocurrency, to buy and sell products and services, providing new ways for creators and brands to monetize content and live events. As retail trade increases on the VRJAM platform through the sale of digital items, tickets, merchandise, and other products, the trading volume of VRJAM Coin also increases, stabilizing its value simultaneously.

VRJAM is a revolutionary real-time platform for virtual events and immersive content creation. Using cutting-edge Web3 and immersive technologies, VRJAM provides users with next-generation solutions for live performance in the multiverse. VRJAM empowers creators, platform owners, and brands to design and deliver interactive, immersive experiences that not only leave their audience awestruck by their beauty, but also inspired and eager to learn more. The platform is PC-based and for the best virtual experience, it is compatible with Meta Quest 2, providing realistic live event experiences in fully immersive virtual reality.

Key platform features include:

• A permanent “always on” virtual world with an array of live events
• A platform for creating and rendering revolutionary new types of digital products and NFTs
• A space for direct fan engagement and the creation of “fan experience” events
• Powered by its native in-game cryptocurrency “VRJAM Coin”
• A digital solution to allow live event locations, including Planet Polygon, to exist in the multiverse
• A platform for the distribution and monetization of avatars, NFTs and saved content from global brands and premium content creators, including gamers and esports players.

Sam Speaight, CEO of VRJAM, said:

“Planet Polygon will set a new user experience threshold for Metaverse Live Events and open up the web3 game world in a way that is completely unique to the Metaverse vertical. We are honored to work with our friends at Polygon Studios to bring this remarkable solution to the world.
