Algoine News
Summary:
The internationally acclaimed show, The Voice, has partnered with The Sandbox and the Virtual Brand Group to launch a novel metaverse experience - "The Voice Coach Battle". This allows fans to become a virtual coach on the platform, guiding future talents, with the game reflecting the decisions made by the virtual coach. Interaction is incentivized via nonfungible tokens (NFTs), rewarding those who accurately anticipate contestant progression. Additionally, some participants could win attendance to a live recording of the show in one of the five countries where it is broadcast.
Admirers of the internationally acclaimed show, The Voice, can now revel in the excitement of grooming their personal star in a novel metaverse experience that bridges the worlds of virtual reality and the actual progam. It was on May 8 that a partnership was announced between The Sandbox, the developer of decentralized gaming platforms and the Virtual Brand Group (VBG) in collaboration with ITV Studios, producers of The Voice, to introduce "The Voice Coach Battle." This metaverse event allows followers to play the role of celebrity coach, sitting in the signature red chair, guiding future talents, much like the actual program, with the game reflecting the decisions made by the virtual coach. The metaverse scenario, which is also a playful interpretation of the popular show, enables followers to engage with the 25th season of NBC’s The Voice from within the game. Interaction is encouraged through nonfungible tokens (NFTs), rewarding those who accurately anticipate which contestants will progress and, eventually, the champion of the show. The prime prize for those participating in the NFT-based contest includes the possibility of getting to witness a live recording of the program in one of the five countries where it is broadcast, thereby uniting the tangible and digital realms. Justin W. Hochberg, the Chief Executive Officer of Virtual Brand Group, was of the opinion that incidents such as "The Voice Coach Battle," are pioneering “television’s evolution." He noted that the average age of gamers today is 34, considerably younger than the average television viewer. He further stated that digital gaming platforms have paved the way for content to reach the fleeting young demographic, thereby prolonging the longevity of a TV format and enhancing its global value. His perspective was that metaverse and Web3 interactive social games are perfectly suited for the content consumption habits of a socially media-savvy generation. He posited that within a timeframe of less than 24 months, all major international series will commence a real-time, parallel gamified experience that seamlessly integrates with the physical show, thus enabling the audience to participate and even contribute to the show.
