Questions from the CryptoRank team
#1. Can you tell us about Warena? What problems do you solve, both in the space and for the community?
Vu H.: – Inspired by Blockchain Technology and capturing the global NFT trend, Warena is an ingenious combination of the two latest gaming developments: Play-to-Earn and Metaverse. Anyone in the Warena ecosystem can enjoy countervailing strategy gameplay within our vast, super-realistic Metaverse, earning at the same time, digital incomes. Tokens collected during the gameplay contribute to the Warena ecosystem, and these tokens can later be converted into NFTs. Using AI-Personalization technology, Warena allows players to create their own unique characters, and is customizable to a deep level, including character avatar, warrior attributions, munitions, gear, and skills. This provides a highly realistic experience throughout one’s adventures. Within the Warena Metaverse, players also can meet, interact, and battle with other characters from other ‘Universes’ such as Axie Infinity, My Defi Pet, Cat Gunner, and much more. Warena is not your typical NFT game. Our players get to immerse themselves in their character and engage in thrilling action-survival gameplay. The Warena NFT game will be released in two phases. Phase 1 will take place in Q3 of 2021 and will see the launch of the 2D tower defense game. It’s a survival, player-vs-environment game that will require players to defend against the oncoming army of zombies. Phase 2 is set to launch in Q2 2022 and will unlock the full force of the Warena metaverse with player-versus-player features. We were inspired by Solo Leveling and Sword Art Online. An inspiration on Sword Art Online with this would be like transferring characters from SAO to ALfheim Online to Gun Gale Online and Accel World.
#2. Could you shortly describe the milestones Warena has achieved, and about your upcoming plans?
Sandy.: – Before the IDO, Warena team is putting a lot of focus on product development first.
Marketing activities in this phase are mainly to provide information about the project, attract the attention of players and investors about the upcoming IDO, clearly demonstrate the development potential and attractiveness of the project. judgment.

DAO MAKER is one of the top IDO launchpads now – they currently have the most traffic out of top IDO launchpads.
