Southeast Asian esports company Ampverse has announced its expansion in the Metaverse with its new Ampverse Web3 project. According to Esports Insider, Ampverse Web3 aims to amplify the Metaverse experience by building “highly engaged gaming communities” through four pillars: AMP Guild, AMP Guild Esports, metaverse experiences and digital collectibles which is aiming to transition “millions of gamers” from Web2 to Web3 “through a series of innovative products,” according to Ampverse CEO, Ferdinand Gutierrez.
Ampverse owns and manages several esports teams across the Southeast Asian region in titles like PUBG Mobile, Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI), and Arena of Valor. It also works with top gaming influencers, content creators, and brand ambassadors to help businesses and brands get into gaming and esports. The company recently raised $12 Million USD in a Series A funding round that saw participation from global investment fund Falcon Capital, existing investors Vulpes and Gandel Invest, and other parties.
The Four Pillars of Ampverse’s Web3 Division
AMP Guild
AMP Guild will be a Play-and-Earn (P&E) guild that helps its members earn money in blockchain games like Spider Tanks, Axie Infinity, and Townstar by educating them and providing non-fungible token (NFT) assets to enable them to play in the aforementioned titles. The AMP Guild will also have valuable NFTs and other in-game assets that the guild can use to generate profits.
AMP Guild Esports
AMP Guild Esports is the esports arm of Ampverse looking to train and commercialize the next generation of professional gamers in the GameFi ecosystem.
AMP Guild Esports will recruit professional P&E teams and players to compete in a wide range of blockchain gaming titles in genres including first-person shooter, MMORPG, MOBA, and card battler games. The organization will also leverage its experience from establishing championship-winning teams in traditional esports titles like PUBG Mobile, Battlegrounds Mobile India, and Arena of Valor to build new esports teams in the metaverse.
Digital Collectibles
Ampverse Web3 will also have a creative branch specializing in creating unique NFT collectibles and other digital assets.
Metaverse Experiences
Ampverse also plans on developing “bespoke experiences” in leading metaverses using the organization’s teams and talent.
