MIAMI, Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Spectators at the Miami DSENTRALS Main Stage were stunned yesterday when UFC fighter Michael Bisping blew away David Chen during a Keynote presentation. METAKING STUDIOS’ Dane Hamer and creator David Johansson talked about their upcoming release BLOCKLORDS – featuring the world’s first playable ‘NextGeNFT’ characters – when Chen and Bisping were caught via webcam to discuss why they’ve become so invested in the medieval metaverse strategy. game.
Fortunately for Chen, the renowned crypto investor, the incident unfolded on video call rather than in real life. What began as friendly banter about medieval times soon took on a more sinister tone when it became clear that both men had their eyes set on the same unique NFT hero, Duke Chad. Seeing himself in the chiseled warrior, Bisping proudly announced to the crowd that he was going to claim Chad in the ongoing Blocklords draw.
It appears that Bisping had been promised Chad before the event – but that important information had clearly not been communicated to Chen. Playing to the crowd, he told Bisping that he had put crypto levels on the line “never seen before” to land the coveted NFT hero. Tensions rose when Bisping suggested that Chen had ‘never seen a gym’. But the NFT collector really hit a nerve by questioning the toughness of the ex-championship fighter. An upset Bisping shocked the central crowd by yelling at Chen. A shell-shocked Chen could only sit in silence as Hamer rushed back to center stage to smooth over the proceedings.
If you’re wondering what all the fuss is about, Blocklord’s NFT Heroes 3D is fully playable in-game and a first when it comes to digital asset tools. Modeled in Unity, each is made to be truly unique – so players who claim them each get a completely different experience of this medieval grand strategy game. Building Blocklords on proprietary technology through Seascape.Network, their goal is to bring real fun and ownership to the Web3 gaming space, while creating a game they describe as ‘A medieval universe, combining old and new worlds as if written by Quentin Tarantino’.
After the confrontation, Chen released a statement from security to Twitter that hit back at Bisping by writing “Duke Chad only has eyes for one animal @Bisping – THE PANDA. News flash – don’t you know you can’t punch someone through a screen?’. Bisping’s response, a crude but creepy animation of a panda being decapitated by a sword, accompanied by a skull emoji, suggests this is a fight that is far from over.
Despite the friction in the air, the public and the web-3 community remained optimistic about ‘NextGeNFT’s’ groundbreaking concept and looked forward to the release of Blocklords.
