Worldwide Webb, an innovative provider of an interoperable pixel art MMORPG metaverse game based in London, UK, has successfully concluded a significant financing round, securing US$10 million in Series A capital. This impressive funding round was spearheaded by Pantera Capital, a prominent player in the investment landscape. The newly acquired funds are earmarked for strategic investments in recruitment, with a particular focus on expanding their marketing and community teams, as well as enhancing their game development team. The primary aim is to improve overall gameplay and develop new products that will enrich the gaming experience for players worldwide.
The company, founded in 2020 by the visionary duo Thomas Webb, who serves as CEO, and Yuan Gao, the Chief Technology Officer, has positioned itself as a trailblazer in the browser-based gaming landscape tailored for the web3 era.
Worldwide Webb offers a fully-competitive, low latency, and high-scale MMORPG accessible to anyone with a browser, whether on mobile or desktop platforms. Players are provided with the unique opportunity to build, create, and battle within a vibrant virtual world utilizing their own NFTs. As a social platform, Worldwide Webb facilitates connections among web3 avatars and users from diverse blockchain ecosystems, allowing for engaging player-versus-player (PvP) interactions, questing, raids, and contributing to a flourishing in-game economy.
In the upcoming weeks, Worldwide Webb is set to unveil its highly anticipated PvP feature—a web3 game designed to allow NFTs from various collections to engage in exhilarating battles with one another. This groundbreaking feature will initiate classic face-offs that include well-known collections such as Deadfellaz, CryptoPunks, CrypToadz, Cool Cats, Doodles, and BAYC. With over a million integrated avatars, the PvP experience epitomizes a cross-chain and cross-collection dynamic, offering players the chance to compete for supremacy and earn rare NFT items in the process. Furthermore, the company is dedicated to rolling out on-chain in-game items, empowering players to cultivate their own businesses and items within the game, along with the introduction of AI-powered user-generated content (UGC) tools.
