Floki is thrilled to announce a new partnership with OG Esports, aligning with Valhalla, an innovative play-to-earn metaverse game built on blockchain technology, designed to offer players a unique and rewarding gaming experience.

Valhalla is an MMORPG that combines open-world exploration with strategic turn-based combat. Players can earn rewards through gameplay and unlock in-game advantages through their skills and strategies.

This collaboration will see Valhalla featured as a jersey sleeve sponsor for OG Esports, highlighted at all upcoming events, and creating new collaborative experiences and content for fans. 

Mr. Brown Whale, Valhalla lead and core advisor, stated:

“Together with OG Esports, we’re ready to redefine the battlegrounds of the web3 and GameFi space — where strategy meets immersion, and every move shapes an epic world of endless possibilities.”

Sujoy Roy, Head of Partnerships at OG Esports, added:

About Valhalla 

Valhalla is a spin on the classic Creature-Collection adventure set in a vibrant, lively, MMORPG open-world inspired by Norse mythology. Players interact with a diverse set of eccentric creatures called Veras, discovering, taming, training, and trading them. Alone or as a clan, players partake in a dynamic, player-driven economy to rise in community ranks and achieve tactical supremacy on the hexagonal-grid battlefield.

ABU DHABI, UAE, August 27th, 2024, Chainwire

• NXPC reimagines in-game item creation by allowing contributors to participate in the item creation process, laying the foundation for the long-term growth of the MapleStory Universe community
• NXPC allows game items to be integrated into the ecosystem, enhancing user engagement and supporting the growth of the ecosystem

NEXPACE, a blockchain subsidiary of Nexon Group focused on expanding IP, today unveiled its proprietary NXPC token for the MapleStory Universe. NXPC aims to bolster both the in-game experience for users and support the overall MapleStory Universe ecosystem by enabling community contributors to take part in item creation in-game, a role traditionally reserved for game service providers.

NXPC’s innovative protocol is designed to foster sustainable ecosystem growth by balancing in-game item distribution while encouraging active user participation. With NXPC, contributors can interact with in-game items within MapleStory Universe, promoting a natural flow of community-driven growth. Supported by blockchain technology, items can be seamlessly integrated into the ecosystem, offering incentives for the community to participate and engage actively.

Sunyoung Hwang, Executive Director of NEXPACE, said: “The introduction of NXPC and blockchain technology to the 21-year legacy of MapleStory IP underscores our confidence in their transformative ability to revolutionise the gaming experience for all. The NXPC token aligns user incentives with the long-term growth of the ecosystem by distributing the ability to create items to contributors, fostering a continuous virtuous cycle of enjoyable experiences and growth of the IP. We look forward to our robust pipeline ahead, including releasing new information on the tokens within the year, as well as the various updates on the ecosystem and the PC MMORPG MapleStory N.”

The supply of IP items that can be redeemed through NXPC is limited per cycle, which is renewed on a regular basis, balancing the flexibility and the health of the in-game economy. The element of scarcity also reinforces the mutual increase in IP item value and NXPC value over time in a sustainable manner, laying the foundation for the long-term growth of the MapleStory Universe.

To elucidate NXPC mechanics, MapleStory Universe has introduced ‘Token Comics,’ which serves to demystify blockchain technology while strategically expanding the MapleStory Universe ecosystem. The comics act as a bridge between the gaming culture and blockchain innovation, providing an engaging medium to introduce complex concepts of digital ownership. Through this educational series, MapleStory Universe aims to enhance community engagement and cultivate awareness of its mission to reshape the future of online games with blockchain innovations.

About NEXPACE

NEXPACE is an IP-expanding project based on blockchain technology that utilises NFTs. The goal of NEXPACE is to bring creators and users together, fostering an innovative games community where members can experience various games and content developed by other members. With its blockchain technology, NEXPACE provides transparent and secure services, encouraging creators to freely express their ideas while users enjoy these fresh inventions. This represents the philosophy and ambition of NEXPACE.

Floki is proud to announce that Valhalla, Floki’s groundbreaking PlayToEarn MMORPG, will be at the forefront of a high-profile advertising campaign throughout the 2024-25 season of the English Premier League (EPL). 

Leveraging LED perimeter boards during live games, this campaign will deliver massive global exposure and enhance the brand’s credibility.

The English Premier League is the most popular sporting league globally, attracting more viewers than both the UEFA Champions League and the Bundesliga combined. For the 2022-23 season, the EPL boasted a cumulative audience of 3.23 billion. 

Broadcasting to 712 million households across 190 countries, the league reaches 2.01 billion viewers of live match programming over the season and 1.22 billion viewers of highlight shows and other non-live content, according to data sourced from Nielsen.

Premier League clubs also have a staggering following on social media, with over half a billion total followers. Leading the way, Facebook has 240 million followers, Instagram has 157 million, TikTok has 56 million, X has 123 million, and YouTube has 28 million.

Valhalla’s LED perimeter board ads will be strategically placed to maximize visibility. The full TV-facing ad system ensures that the ads are prominently visible during broadcasts. Creative flexibility allows for dynamically tailored ad content. Branding will be visible inside the event itself, providing in-program exposure. 

The ads will ensure multichannel coverage, making them visible across various devices and platforms, including broadcast, social media, mobile, and online. There are no virtual overlays to interfere with the ads in the Premier League, ensuring uninterrupted visibility. Additionally, minimal ad avoidance makes the ads almost unavoidable for viewers. 

According to the team, each minute of LED ad delivery results in an astounding 156 minutes of global on-screen visibility.

The ad campaign will cover 100 minutes of ad time throughout the season and will be globally broadcast to ensure extensive reach. At least 40% of the advertising inventory will be shown during matches featuring the league’s top clubs.

The extensive campaign is projected to reach a massive global audience. In total, it is expected to reach over 200 million people, with about 1.2 billion impressions and a total on-screen duration of nearly 440 hours. In Europe, the campaign is projected to generate around 81 million impressions with an on-screen duration of approximately 181 hours. 

In Asia & Oceania, about 47 million impressions are expected with an on-screen duration of nearly 168 hours. In Africa, the campaign is projected to achieve around 48 million impressions and an on-screen duration of almost 34 hours.

This campaign will be featured on some of the biggest broadcasters in the world, including Sky Sports, TNT, Amazon Prime, BBC (highlights), NBC Sports (including Peacock), USA Network, Telemundo, FuboTV, Optus Sports, Star Sports, Disney+ Hotstar, beIN Sports, Supersport, Sky Deutschland, Canal+, DAZN, Sky Italia, Astro, Now TV, and Truevisions.
