Motorverse launches motorsport avatar NFT collection “Torque Squad”
Motorverse Corporation, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, has announced the launch of Torque Squad – a collection of 8,888 racing avatar NFTs called “Torqies”. The first Torqie presale starts on 2 April 2022; for more information see https://www.torquesquad.io/.
Torqie NFTs are generated with individually styled details and intricate hand-drawn artwork to delight motorsport enthusiasts. These Torqies will act as the entry point to the Motorverse ecosystem, which is partnered with the REVV Motorsport ecosystem.
The Torque Squad project has partnered with numerous top racers from across the world of motorsport, including Juan Pablo Montoya, Joey Logano, Brad Binder, Rene Rast and Sebastian Montoya.
Grammy nominee Tina Guo and composer Steve Mazzaro, who have worked on music for various major motion pictures including Inception, Dune, Dunkirk, Wonder Woman, Interstellar, No Time To Die, Batman vs Superman, and others, have composed “The Soundtrack to Motorverse”, which can be heard at https://www.torquesquad.io and will be available on Spotify soon.
More than just images or profile pictures (PFPs), Torqies offer true utility across multiple areas in both the real and virtual worlds. Ownership of a Torqie provides entry to the Motorverse ecosystem, which is being integrated with REVV Motorsport and is adopting the REVV Token as its ecosystem utility token. Additionally, various REVV ecosystem NFTs will be supported in several of the upcoming Motorverse experiences.
Motorverse is a lifestyle blockchain platform consisting of games, fashion, events, DeFi, and much more. It is a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, the company advancing digital property rights for gaming and the metaverse and the driving force behind the pioneering REVV Motorsport ecosystem that includes REVV Racing, MotoGP™ Ignition, and Formula E: High Voltage.
Matt Solomon, Co-Founder and CEO of Motorverse, commented: “The Torque Squad is the first step into the Motorverse. We’ve put an incredible amount of effort into the artwork and community, so we can’t wait to see the avatars come to life! We’re building some amazing products for motorsports enthusiasts with Animoca Brands and are fully committed to contributing to a metaverse based on openness and interoperability.”
Yat Siu, the Executive Chairman and Co-Founder of Animoca Brands, added: “The launch of Torque Squad and Motorverse is a fantastic time for motorsport and blockchain enthusiasts and the REVV ecosystem. Motorverse is developing exciting NFT and physical products that focus on connecting the real and virtual worlds, which is a key element of the open metaverse.”
