Wilder World is a free-roam virtual world that begins in Wiami, a metaverse city to explore, race, socialize, and much more. With an order of magnitude more surface area than traditional MMOs, Wiami offers a rich environment for players to connect and enjoy a Web3-enabled gaming experience. Wilder World’s first experience, a competitive racing game set within the expansive landscape of Wiami, is currently in a alpha testing phase and scheduled for a broader release later in 2024.
In development since early 2021, Wilder World is a next-gen AAA game built on Unreal Engine. The game features the latest in photorealistic graphics and true in-game AI to offer a next-gen gaming experience, while enabling the full-scale economy. All items, equipment, land and avatars exist as tradable digital assets on the Wilder World marketplace, which players can own and earn real value by participating in the economy, trading equipment, winning races, exploring the world and more to come.
The listing on the Epic Games Store, one of the largest digital delivery platforms in the world with over 270M total users and 75M monthly active users as of December 2023, will boost visibility for Wilder World among active and dedicated PC gamers. Working with Epic Games is the perfect match for Wilder World, both because of the unrivaled quality of the Unreal Engine, and the strong alignment in ethos and values — given Epic Games’ strive to fight against aggressive middlemen.
“We’re honoured to be listed on the Epic Games store, setting the pace for next-gen gaming in the metaverse.” said Frank Wilder, Co-founder of Wilder World. “Our mission is to create a novel experience using cutting-edge technology, offering players a virtual space for gaming, socializing, and earning.”
