Neopets Metaverse closed in favor of the non-Crypto mobile game
In a surprising turn of events, Neopets Metaversse, a NFT game built around the beloved neopets, was suddenly canceled. The decision, announced by the Neopets team (TNT), let fans question the reasons for the stop and the future of the project. Neopets Metaversse, which had already entered its alpha development stadium, had more than 9,000 Solana NFTS and had obtained significant support from eminent investors.
Neopets underwent a management repurchase as part of its transition, marking its independence after 18 years of corporate property. The company, previously owned by Viacom and later Jumpstart, which Netdragon has acquired, is now under a new management team called World of Neopia, Inc. The blog article announcing the modifications promises fans the monthly updates, clusters (ask me for all session) and a program of brand ambassador.
Neopets promises support for the web3 community
Despite the cancellation of the NFT game, Neopets ensures its commitment to support the web3 community. The company plans to continue to operate a Discord server for NFT holders, offering them continuous commitment and communication. However, the fate of NFT owners in terms of reimbursements and advantages in the new mobile game remains uncertain. The representatives of Neopets mentioned the possibility of providing advantages to NFT owners, such as “NC” digital currency at stake and digital articles on the platform.
While Neopets is progressing, it aims to rejuvenate its platform by launching a new home page on July 20. In addition, the company plans to use an emulator to update its former flash games, which makes them playable again. With the takeover of management, Neopets hopes to lose its past corporate baggage and empower TNT with the decision -making authority and the brand strategy.
