US-based game developer 9VRSE, the creative force behind Kitty Inu, has secured a grant from Arbitrum, paving the way for the upcoming release of their battle royale racing game, KittyKart.
AI and Web3
9VRSE, Inc. is a creative studio leveraging blockchain technology to design immersive virtual experiences that transcend traditional media boundaries by merging AI with web3. The team is distinguished by its achievements, including PrimeTime Emmys and Forbes 30 under 30 honors in Technology.
Just this past week, 9VRSE disclosed that KittyKart will deploy on the Arbitrum Network after being awarded a prestigious developer grant from the Arbitrum Foundation. The web3 game, KittyKart, offers a distinctive fusion of arcade sports and indie FPS gameplay, promising to engage players of all ages.
With a team comprising industry veterans from Oculus, Meta, and Google, 9VRSE is an integral part of the broader Kitty Inu ecosystem. This ecosystem also includes the Kitty Inu DAO, renowned for its ERC-20 token $KITTY. Notably, by the close of 2023, the $KITTY token found integration with avatars in the popular social farming game Pixels.
Expressing enthusiasm about joining the Arbitrum network, 9VRSE CEO Anna Nevison stated: "This generous grant from the Arbitrum Foundation accelerates our vision for KittyKart, transforming it from a traditional play-and-earn model to an immersive digital ownership experience. It’s a leap towards realizing Loyalty 3.0, where engagement and rewards evolve beyond the game."
KittyKart, currently in its early development stage, has released a demo available for download via the game's official website. The move to Arbitrum signifies a strategic step by 9VRSE to enhance the gaming experience and open new possibilities within the Kitty Inu ecosystem. As the project gains momentum, the gaming community eagerly awaits the unique fusion of racing, FPS, and play-to-earn dynamics promised by KittyKart.
