188 | The Sandbox's vision for 2025

[2:49] "The metaverse is far from dead". The Sandbox Alpha 4 had over 580,000 players.

[4:25] No matter the market, people see that The Sandbox is building and launching."

[5:35] "We will have four seasons in 2025. Alpha 5 is already in production."

[7:20] A criticism of seasons is it means The Sandbox is stop-start. There's no flywheel.

[10:20] "We are in alpha now but in 2025 we expect to go into beta."

[13:10] RE: UGC, The Sandbox is following a similar approach to Fortnite and its UEFN program.

[14:00] The mobile client didn't come out in 2024 so what's happening there?

[15:30] Part of our new strategy is the Voxel Games Program - standalone games including mobile.

[18:01] We have two announced games and over 100 applications for the program.

[21:45] Will you release The Sandbox PC client through stores like Epic Games Store?

[23:22] "The success of the metaverse requires the product, the content and the ecosystem."

[26:32] "Our vision has always been to empower the creators."

[29:18] How do AI agents fit into The Sandbox's vision?
