World League Live! Kick off your NFT collectibles with the first whitelist from Del Piero
The 2022 Qatar Fifa World Cup is in full swing, full of glittering glamour, international legends and frenetic drama. The beautiful game is in full swing and fans are enjoying a unique winter tournament. Still, that’s not the only thing football fans are enjoying at the moment, the other being World League Live! (WLL), which recently celebrated 100,000 downloads. The WLL team recently announced their whitelist campaign to gain access to an exclusive in-game Alessandro Del Piero NFT and have a chance to play and meet one of the legends of the game.
What is World League Live?
World League Live is an arcade soccer game for mobile that combines the finesse of FIFA with the fun and fast-paced action of Sensible Football or Mario Strikers. The game’s full suite of social features, including video chat and streaming, allows players to chat and view each other on webcam during the game as they battle it out on the pitch, adding to the fun and party-like feel of the gameplay.
They also reinforce the WLL’s core mission, which is to create a powerful engagement mechanism for fans to connect directly with their favorite teams and players through the WLL’s Play with the Stars opportunities. WLL uses NFTs for in-game benefits and to create web3 engagement rails where clubs and players can connect directly with their fanbases in a fun, unique gaming environment that rewards the user by leveraging digital ownership economies on the blockchain.
The Del Piero Campaign – Play with the legend himself
World League Live already has a long-term official partnership with FC Utrecht to trial this model, but now they are taking the next step with the announcement of their Alessandro Del Piero NFT Whitelist, where – for the next three days – players have the chance to sign this legendary player for their World League Live team! The coin itself is live on November 29.
Alessandro Del Piero is one of the all-time greats. The fabled striker reinvented the deep-lying forward role for a modern era. He scored 344 goals in a long career that led Juventus to multiple Serie A titles as well as Champions League and Intercontinental Cup glory in ’96. He was also part of the Italian squad that took home the World Cup in 2006. His stunning technique, set-piece precision, graceful trickery and physical bursts sent defenders spinning and goalkeepers flailing while pundits, commentators and fans swooned over his majestic dribbling.
On the World League Live pitch, his exuberant talent will be on full display, crossing past hapless defenders with his trademark style. The more you play with Del Piero, the more you can upgrade him, earn $FAME and even sell your upgraded version on the NFT market. World League Live’s NFTs are also a conduit to amazing real-world experiences. A fan could even end up playing and chatting with Del Piero himself by taking part in a World League Live game with the stars.
How World League Live will use NFTs and Web3 for radical fan engagement
World League Live plans to use NFTs to establish links between stars and their fans and radically increase fan engagement and beneficial relationships between the two. It creates a place for creators and players who love soccer to come together and celebrate. The Del Piero campaign is the maiden voyage of this model and the first opportunity for fans to begin engaging with the web3 economy that exists under the hood of WLL’s action-packed games. An economy that is far from just ordinary goods and events.
Web3 games are a potential future mega-market. Even in its infancy, amazing projects have already launched, and industries like ESPN+ and the NFL have made significant investments in the metaverse and online streaming platforms. Digital artifacts are already valued at more than $10 billion, and the market is just getting started, with the groundwork for a truly immersive metaverse still underway.
Already building a fully functional triple-A mobile game with fluid social features, World League Live wants to combine this experience with the wider metaverse of sports and create a dynamic online community for soccer fans to gather around. There will soon be a thriving multi-sport metaverse—in fact, it’s already begun—and World League Live plans to be at the center of it with their social-powered arcade soccer game.
Other ways the blockchain benefits from World League Live is through the play-to-earn mechanics built into the game, where players can earn $WLF (FAME) by winning against their opponents and by leveling players’ NFTs to unlock skins, emotes and upgrades, paid in $WLP (POWER) – the governing symbol of World League Live.
The NFTs can then be sold on the World League Live NFT Marketplace. Standard features from web2 such as a battle pass and online tournaments are already in place, with NFTs that can be unlocked by completing the reward track.
