The Sandbox unveils Voxel Games program to bring indies to broader platforms

The Sandbox, an immersive metaverse platform and a division of Animoca Brands, announced its Voxel Games program to partner with indie game developers on multiple platforms.

Through Voxel Games, The Sandbox will be expanding the boundaries of its ecosystem by partnering with
renowned indie developers and studios to create widely available games in its distinctive voxel style. The Sandbox is like a variant on Minecraft, only using blockchain technology. It has been embraced mostly by individual creators and brands so far, but now The Sandbox is reaching out to professional devs at indie game studios on multiple platforms.
