Minecraft acquires Web З.0 integration via NFT Worlds

The NFT Worlds project added a blockchain layer modification to Microsoft’s video game, Minecraft, so that users could access Web 3.0 features.

Minecraft acquires Web З.0 integration

NFT Worlds is a metaverse project created on Minecraft servers with a twist based on the Polygon network. Minecraft software is open source and can be used by anyone with technical know-how. In 2021, the game had 141 million active users.

The project also demonstrated in-game purchases using the WRLD token: a simple WRLD store was built in one of the worlds to purchase Apple. In a separate tweet, it was announced that this feature will be launched soon and will come with low fees.

In-game $WRLD purchasing, transactions & the P2E $WRLD layer will be rolling out soon. Completely frictionless, no gas required to spend/transact $WRLD in an NFT World.

In this demo video, we built a simple "Shop" using the $WRLD layer and bought an Apple in-game with $WRLD. pic.twitter.com/8XjCuzdkTG
