DRL’s Project Drone Galaxy, which will be released later this year, is a multiplayer drone racing experience in the metaverse developed in collaboration with Playground Labs.
“Project Drone Galaxy’s high-intensity esports-focused gameplay establishes a new standard for web3 gaming and showcases what it means to safely incorporate blockchain technology in a way that puts players in control,” Playground Labs CEO Sam Peurifoy stated.
Players will create their own drones, compete for digital treasures and other incentives, and fly-to-win as animal-avatars in a high-stakes racing arena equipped with obstacles, boosts, and highly competitive pilots.
“The Drone Racing League is made for Web3. Our fans are avid enthusiasts of drones and blockchain, and as we prepare to launch Project Drone Galaxy powered by Algorand this year, we’re excited to unveil a teaser video showcasing our first metaverse game to come,” said DRL CMO Anne Marie Gianutsos.
Project Drone Galaxy’s launch comes as the 2022-23 DRL Algorand World Championship Season takes flight, where the world’s best drone pilots race the fastest drones through spectacular courses across IRL, esports and the metaverse – as seen on NBC and top social platforms. The season’s finale, “Miami 3-0-FLY” will take place in America’s Web3 capital, Miami, Florida, on Saturday, February 25th at 7:30pm EST at loanDepot park, home to Major League Baseball’s Miami Marlins.
As part of the DRL’s virtual segment of the season, the world’s 12 finest drone pilots will race around the Biosphere terrain in the DRL SIM, the true-to-life drone racing game available on PlayStation, Xbox, Steam, and Epic Games, tonight. The race will be live streamed on YouTube, TikTok, Twitter, Twitch, Instagram, and Facebook at 8 p.m. EST.
