Multiplayer builder game My Neighbor Alice (MNA) has announced that it has partnered with Pudgy Penguins to create a new Pudgy Land region. The collaboration will also see the creation of special quests and the integration of all Pudgy NFTs complete with their unique traits, marking a major advancement in cross-chain interoperability.
The three Pudgy collections will be brought to life as 3D characters within My Neighbor Alice, allowing players to roam its open world with their favorite avatar. Pudgy holders will also have exclusive access to Pudgy Land, where they can hang out and interact with fellow fans of the lovable penguins.
The partnership with Pudgy Penguins means that all 8,888 Pudgy Penguins, 22,222 Lil Pudgys, and 7,399 Pudgy Rods Collections will be integrated into My Neighbor Alice. This will enable holders of the popular NFTs to unlock new quests and games within the MNA universe.
The collaboration coincides with the launch of Chapter One: A New Beginning on June 17, providing additional incentives for new and existing players to complete quests within My Neighbor Alice. In the process, the partnership breaks new ground for web3 interoperability, showing what can be achieved when leading projects integrate across different blockchain ecosystems.
Steve Haßenpflug, VP of Games at ChromaWay and My Neighbor Alice, said:
“With this partnership we’re pushing the envelope when it comes to interoperability. We haven’t just integrated the Pudgy Penguins brand but have made all 40,000 items awaken as native 3D assets within My Neighbor Alice. Now, Pudgy holders can see their own unique NFTs come to life in-game, interact with the world, enjoy exclusive gameplay and even create new experiences for others. That’s the power of connected ecosystems and a big step towards the open metaverse.”
To expand the Alice universe, Snowflake Wilds has been developed as a frosty, feel-good winter wonderland. At its heart is Pudgy Land where the community can hang out, quest, craft, and connect. Pudgy Penguins and Lil Pudgy’s holders will see their companion start out as an egg before hatching to reveal the exact NFT they own. They can also customize their in-game profile with their Pudgy Penguin, while Pudgy Rod holders can equip a custom fishing rod skin and use it to catch special fish.
Other tie-ins as a consequence of the MNA-Pudgy collaboration include a collection of Pudgy-themed emotes that can be exclusively crafted by holders. Pudgy owners have the unique ability to create and sell these emotes to other players in-game, opening up real opportunities to monetize their NFT ownership.
While some benefits of the collaboration are exclusive to Pudgy holders, other opportunities are available to the entire MNA community such as seasonal quests dispensing winter-themed rewards. Pudgy holders, meanwhile, will be able to take on special quests awarded by Pudgy-styled NPCs and craft exclusive themed clothing and accessories.
The partnership with Pudgy Penguins will bring new visitors to Lummelunda, add a new winter season, and kick off a new season of My Neighbor Alice in the process. It marks the first of many integrations that will bring popular IP and NFT collections into My Neighbor Alice, providing new opportunities to interact and explore community-driven open world.
