  • Habbo and The Sandbox collabs to give community members a different experience in the metaverse.
  • Habbo will be opening its classic new hotel in The Sandbox metaverse.
  • Over 300 million avatars have engaged in a span of two decades to enjoy the social experience in The Sandbox.

Online vintage pixel-art style art virtual community Habbo and the Ethereum-based gaming ecosystem, The Sandbox, recently announced their partnership. This new collaboration will let members from The Sandbox and Habbo ecosystems interact, share experiences, and explore the metaverse together.  

Habbo will make its debut in The Sandbox with the classic Habbo Hotel and its renowned receptionist, Frank, who is the most famous Habbo character. In this all-new journey, users will be helping and supporting Frank in managing the hotel by finishing all the given tasks. 

Through the Habbo experience in The Sandbox, users will also have the option to learn and know more about Habbo’s world and its history while creating its story with new incidents and plot points. This alliance aims to expand Habbo’s position in Web3, which was started with the launch of Habbo X, a Web3 social media platform that will give interoperability with The Sandbox.

Sebastian Borget, COO and Co-founder of The Sandbox, said that in many aspects, Habbo is forming the foundation for a virtual social world where around 300 million avatars have engaged over the span of two decades to enjoy the social experience.  

He further added that the team is also very excited to work in partnership with Habbo and to create new experiences in The Sandbox to authorize their community with their own #nocode Game Maker. It will allow the development of more user-curated content and encourage communication, showing the actual potential of the wide metaverse and Web3.
