The rise of virtual experiences is taking the gambling world by storm, with Decentral Games leading the way in expanding their virtual nightlife offerings. In a move that is sure to excite gamers and casino enthusiasts alike, virtual land governance DAO Decentral Games has announced the launch of an Atari-branded casino within the metaverse.
This casino will mark the third gambling establishment for the DAO, which specializes in purchasing land in virtual worlds like Decentraland and opening digital businesses. Leveraging the iconic brand assets of Atari, the casino will offer a variety of provably-fair games that are designed to evoke feelings of nostalgia among players.
What sets this virtual casino apart is the wide range of tokens that gamers can use to play, including popular cryptocurrencies like DAI, ETH, and Decentraland’s own token, MANA. Additionally, Decentral Games has implemented a unique “gaming mining” program that rewards players with their governance token, $DG.
The concept of the metaverse, which refers to interconnected virtual worlds that facilitate in-game economies, has gained significant attention in recent times. This surge of interest can be attributed to the growing popularity of NFTs and the realization by industry leaders, including Fortnite founder Tim Sweeny, that virtual reality technology is on the brink of a major breakthrough.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, the metaverse emerged as an unexpected winner as people turned to online platforms for entertainment and social interaction. This shift has led to a boom in the virtual space, with brands and consumers alike flocking to these platforms to connect with each other in new and innovative ways.
Decentral Games CMO Lee Lin Liew commented on this trend, stating, “Lots of industries — entertainment, fashion — have been jumping on the bandwagon, perhaps because they’ve been impacted by Covid. They realize that they can connect with their customers in this new way.”
As the world of virtual gaming continues to evolve and expand, Decentral Games remains at the forefront of innovation, offering players the opportunity to immerse themselves in a virtual casino experience unlike any other. With their latest venture into the metaverse nightlife space, Decentral Games is setting the standard for what the future of gambling could look like.
