The Sandbox has partnered with Universal Products & Experiences and Amblin Entertainment to bring the Jurassic World franchise to its metaverse platform.

Jurassic World: Dinosaur Preserve is the first experience in The Sandbox collaboration, set in an Arizona dinosaur sanctuary where players join the Dinosaur Protection Group to explore, collect, and complete quests.

The collaboration will provide fans with new Jurassic World games, immersive experiences, and digital collectables. The first game is set to headline The Sandbox’s Alpha Season 5 later this month. 

Come April, fans can buy virtual real estate in The Sandbox using SAND and build their own experiences. Premium LAND buyers will get a Creator Asset Pack with digital dinosaurs and props. 

Life finds a way

“Jurassic World is one of the most iconic franchises in the world that taps into the excitement and thrill of coming face-to-face with dinosaurs and we’re excited to launch a new collaboration to bring Jurassic World into The Sandbox,” said The Sandbox CEO and co-founder Arthur Madrid. 

“Gamified experiences are the future of how fans want to interact with their favourite brands, and this collaboration allows us to deliver exactly that.”

The Sandbox COO and co-founder Sebastien Borget added: “The metaverse can bring our childhood dreams to life. Who hasn’t been fascinated by dinosaurs since they were a kid? 

“Now, you can explore experiences in The Sandbox alongside them, or even create your own adventures inspired by those from Jurassic World. I’m sure these creatures that capture so much of our imagination will leave a giant footprint in the virtual world.”
