Avalon MMO offers users space to create, share their own worlds

Web3 studio Avalon Corp this week officially revealed its new metaverse-style MMO, Avalon. This game allows users to create their own worlds using the company’s tools, and then share them with others. The new platform is part of the company’s efforts to build an interoperable digital world, for which purpose it raised $14 million earlier this year.

The team behind Avalon is led by former EverQuest producer Jeffrey Butler and Sean Pinnock. According to the team, everything in Avalon is created by the players, with the intention that they can own their own in-game spaces while interacting with others’ creations. The game is built on the Unreal Engine, and the development team uses Didimo’s Popul8 character creation platform and Inworld AI’s character AI. Both can be used to create characters within the worlds of Avalon.
