Quick take:
- KINGSHIP Islands is free to play for any Roblox user.
- Users must complete quests to access the “Floating Villa”.
- Owners of one of the 5,000 KINGSHIP Key Cards can gain direct access to the “Floating Villa” without completing quests.
Bored Ape supergroup KINGSHIP has launched an immersive experience on the Roblox Metaverse. The group is comprised of holders of Bored Ape Yacht Club and Mutant Ape Yacht Club NFTs.
10:22PM, the Web3 label of Universal Music Group founded by Celine Joshua announced the launch on Thursday, describing KINGSHIP Islands as an in-game experience where Roblox users can work to unite the four band members on a hub called the “Floating Villa”.
According to the announcement, KINGSHIP Islands is free to play, but Robloxers will be required to complete quests to gain access to the Floating Villa.
The gaming experience allows holders of the 5,000 KINGSHIP Key Cards to access the villa directly using special Roblox badges, which provide unique roles inside experiences.
Players can earn rewards and “acquire emotes for their avatars.” KINGSHIP plans to add more free virtual goods in time with new music produced by Hit-Boy and James Fauntleroy, the KINGSHIP “sonic creative team” that was announced last year.
Founded in November 2021, 10:22PM is comprised of mutant ape Captain who does vocals, and bass, bored ones KING the lead vocals, Arnell (beats, producer, drums) and Hud (guitar, keyboards, vocals).
Although NFT prices have plummeted significantly from their 2021/2022 highs, more players continue to refine their projects by focusing more on NFT utility instead of riding a trendy buzz due to the fear of missing out.
One such utility is using NFT avatars in gaming experiences, which allows NFT projects to expand the application of their digital IPs.
