Looking Glass Labs Sets Launch Date for Alpha Release of Pocket Dimension Metaverse Assets

October 20, 2022 – Vancouver, British Columbia

Holders will gain access to the alpha release on November 1, 2022, which is being designed to provide the highest resolution and most realistic metaverse experience technically possible today.

Looking Glass Labs Ltd. (‘LGL’ or the ‘company’) (NEO: NFTX) (OTC: LGSLF) (FRA: H1N), a leading Web 3.0 platform specializing in NFT architecture, immersive metaverse environments, play-to-earn tokenization and virtual asset royalty streams, announces that its flagship studio, House of Kibaa (‘HoK’) has set the launch date for the next step in the staged release (the ‘alpha release’) of its Pocket Dimension metaverse assets for November 1, 2022.

The company’s metaverse is being designed to provide the highest resolution and most realistic experience technically possible today.

HoK has been steadily developing its metaverse assets in order to meet the significant expected demand for them over the next decade.

As recently reported in the Wall Street Journal, annual global spending by businesses and consumers related to the metaverse could reach five trillion dollars by 2030 – according to a new report from consulting firm McKinsey and Co. E-commerce in the metaverse will comprise $2.0-2.6 trillion of the total, while virtual advertising endeavors will make up another $144-206 billion.

The alpha release will introduce holders to HoK’s overall metaverse experience, with the specific goals of testing simple features of each Pocket Dimension, exploring the environments and stress-testing multiplayer capabilities.

HoK has been developing 11 ultra-realistic environments that include 10 original Pocket Dimension environments and one Genesis Moon environment – all created using Unreal Engine Five.

The alpha release plans to add further utility to each holder’s Web 3.0 metaverse experience. HoK Genesis members will also have access to their Genesis Moon environment.

The alpha release will give access to early versions of the following features.

• Gated holder access
• Multiplayer lobby options
• Text chat capability
• Two default avatar players
• NPC hosts
• In-game minigames
• NFT interactions with image, video and text
• Different architectures – for example, the HoK Lava Temple Gallery and Gutter Cat Gang Trap House

Following the Alpha Release, HoK will collect feedback from users in order to continue building additional features, with the goal of releasing full-featured Pocket Dimension to users in 2023 so they can begin building their own virtual worlds.

About Pocket Dimension

The Pocket Dimension metaverse is a hyper-realistic digital world that is being built using the latest version of Unreal Engine in order to offer users a premium virtual experience.

Pocket Dimensions feature 10 different environments including Archipelago, Countryside, Dale, Dunes, Fjord, Marsh, Savanna, Tundra, Woodland and Zen – as well as the aforementioned Genesis Moon environment exclusively for Genesis membership holders.

Each environment offers users various forms of utility including but not limited to hosting events with their community, integrating custom structures and adding digital assets.

Pocket Dimension is a private space representing an area size of approximately four acres in which owners can visit, invite friends, display NFTs, create settings, collaborate with others or facilitate experiences through various utilities and uses.

Parcels provide their owners with additional unique benefits such as being blockchain agnostic with wide NFT compatibility (Polygon, Ethereum, etc.), an extensive avatar system, a unique non-playable characters host system and more. Landowners will also have access to the broader suite of utilities that HoK will develop over time.

Dorian Banks, chief executive officer of Looking Glass Labs, said,

“As the metaverse and NFTs continue to see rapid growth and adoption, it is important for HoK to make Pocket Dimension available to users as soon as possible. Early adopters who purchased Pocket Dimension are keen to begin building their virtual spaces and establishing their presence in the metaverse.

“I believe that collaborations with well-known music, sports and entertainment entities to come will be a catalyst for both the HoK metaverse as well as the broader metaverse ecosystem on a global scale.”
