What is Project Dragon?

“Project Dragon” is a 3D action game set in the Otherside metaverse, a virtual world created by Yuga Labs.

The game focuses on large-scale team battles, and to participate in the game, players must own certain NFTs, such as the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) or the Otherdeed collection.

The game is part of a broader trend of incorporating blockchain technology into games to allow for decentralized ownership and interaction within a virtual environment. Otherside itself blends elements of traditional MMORPGs with web3 functionality to provide a unique platform for this type of gameplay.
