The Sandbox welcomes BBC Studios and Reality+

The metaverse is becoming the home of Doctor Who. Reality+ and BBC Studios have partnered, intending to introduce several immersive experiences in the Sandbox metaverse.

According to reports, fans will have the opportunity to engage with immersive content from their favorite brands, including Top Gear and Doctor Who, in The Sandbox’s setting.

Following a few brand activation tests using metaverse platforms, the joint venture between BBC Studios and Reality+ will be the first time the BBC has a home in the metaverse. The Sandbox fully embraces the metaverse concept as a continuous shared digital world in which players and businesses may create, control, and monetize their experiences on the blockchain. It is a combination of a theme park and virtual real estate.

In a statement, BBC Studios’ President of Brands and Licensing, Nicki Sheard, expressed joy at the partnership between BBC Studios and Reality+ and The Sandbox. She stated that:

I’m thrilled that BBC Studios is collaborating with Reality+ and The Sandbox on this intriguing project.
