Ahead of its anticipated launch date, the web3 game Wilder World has secured a coveted listing on the Epic Games Store. Described as "the ultimate game" by its publisher, Wilder World promises a free-roam virtual world starting in Wiami, a bustling metaverse city ripe for exploration, racing, socializing, and more.

Notably, all in-game items, equipment, land, and avatars will function as tradable digital assets within the Wilder World marketplace, adding an intriguing layer of economic gameplay.

According to Frank Wilder, Co-founder of Wilder World, the team is thrilled about the Epic Games Store listing, positioning the game at the forefront of next-generation metaverse gaming. Their overarching goal is to pioneer a new gaming experience using state-of-the-art technology, providing players with a multifaceted virtual space for gaming, social interaction, and financial opportunities.

Innovatively, Wilder World aims to address perceived limitations of traditional AAA games like Grand Theft Auto and Cyberpunk by integrating leading game genres into one immersive experience. Their roadmap outlines plans to blend elements of racing, mining, first-person-shooter gameplay, and more into a cohesive, expansive game environment.

Built on a proprietary blockchain, Wilder World is collaborating with Polygon and Celestia to develop a scalable blockchain solution, ensuring low fees and high performance. Additionally, the team is working with Metagravity to support virtual worlds accommodating thousands of players simultaneously.

In the future, Wilder World intends to operate on a proprietary cloud gaming platform, leveraging NVIDIA GPUs for increased reliability, hardware optimization, and enhanced metaverse and web3 gaming experiences. However, during its early stages, the game will be accessible via Nvidia's streaming gaming service, Geforce NOW.

The team's roadmap outlines a phased rollout of features over the next 12-18 months, with the "racing" component set to debut in "Act I" and the "combat" component introduced in "Act III," providing players with a progressive and engaging gaming experience.
