Atari Partners With The Sandbox & Brings Atari Jam Game Into The Metaverse

Atari has been facilitating game builders since 1972, and now they are re-creating an all-new experience in The Sandbox. 

Now, you can get creative as Game builders will be able to use two of Atari’s IPs and use them in The Sandbox to make their custom experience.

Atari will let you use their IPs solely for the promotion of Atari Game Jam in The Sandbox Metaverse. The good news is that the assets you’ve created using those IPs will remain in your account even after the game jam is over.

You can use two of the 15 listed IPs to recreate:

  • ASTEROIDS
  • SWORDQUEST
  • CENTIPEDE
  • MILLIPEDE
  • TEMPEST
  • PONG
  • MINER 2049er
  • ALIEN BRIGADE
  • CRYSTAL CASTLES
  • COMBAT
  • MISSILE COMMAND
  • ADVENTURE
  • BREAKOUT
  • FOOD FIGHT
  • BLACK WIDOW
  • HUMAN CANNONBALL
  • YARS’ REVENGE

Not just creation, The Sandbox has a surprise for you!

Those who take part in the program and secure the top spots will win $SAND prizes. 30,000 $SAND will be split among the winners.

  • 1st Place – The top spot will win 12,000 SAND and the “50 Years of Atari” NFT.
  • 2nd Place – 7,000 SAND
  • 3rd Place – 4,000 SAND
  • 4 – 10th Place – 1,000 SAND Each
