Gear Runner has announced a strategic collaboration with Meta Arena.
Gear Runner is a platform that combines the M2E (Move-to-Earn) mechanism and Game Finance, built on top of the TON blockchain. The platform, whose key infrastructure is a GPS tracker that tracks real-world activities such as running, is designed to redefine fitness by rewarding physical activity with cryptocurrency.
On the other hand, Meta Arena is a P2E game platform with NFT and Metaverse integration (developed on the SEI blockchain), conquering the blockchain gaming market with its advanced amalgamations.
This alliance between the two firms represents an exciting collaboration of real-world activity and virtual reality games within the decentralized landscape.
What This Alliance Means For Meta Arena Users
The core of this collaboration involves Meta Arena integrating Gear Runner’s Move-to-Earn mechanism within its gaming infrastructure to influence game mechanics.
Gear Runner is a platform that gamifies physical movement activities and gameFi. It allows users to connect their wearable devices and redeem their steps daily, rewarding members with cryptocurrency.
This integration means Meta Arena users will now be able to boost their daily/monthly gaming rewards by participating in daily and monthly physical movement challenges like daily step targets and others.
This involves users’ physical movements trailed by Gear Runner’s GPS tracker, providing in-game benefits within Meta Arena’s multiplayer games, including unleashing new applications on Meta Arena’s virtual reality (immersive) games.
This integration further implies interoperability between the two platforms, whereby cryptocurrencies earned in Gear Runner can be moved to Meta Arena’s network, enabling players to buy in-game products, characters, and digital collectibles on Meta’s multiplayer games. Through this approach, the partnership will introduce an efficient value stream between Gear Runner’s Move-to-Earn system and Meta Arena’s game mechanics.
Based on this approach, this alliance is set to develop a more engaging experience, making Meta Arena game players enjoy real-world actions impacting their online expeditions.
Advancing Gaming and Web3 Opportunities
The alliance between the two firms is a crucial move to advance composability between various decentralized applications within the Web3 landscape.
By linking a Move-to-Earn network (like Gear Runner) and an established MMOG (like Meta Arena), the two platforms are displaying how varied decentralized experiences can be integrated to establish a more enriched, interlinked metaverse.
M2E games have demonstrated their success in bringing people to the decentralized world by providing real-world rewards for physical activity. This integration with a major MMOG platform (like Meta Arena) is a strategic move designed to attract Web2 game players to the decentralized world by providing ordinary games integrated with advanced crypto benefits.
