Shiba Inu Developer Reveals First Look at Coming SHIB Metaverse

Pseudonymous developer Shytoshi Kusama is giving the crypto community a teaser as the Shiba Inu (SHIB) ecosystem gears up to showcase its metaverse project.

Shytoshi Kusama has unveiled an image that will serve as Shiba Inu’s entry to the best movie poster competition at the 2023 SXSW music and film festival in Austin, Texas.

According to Shiba Inu’s lead developer, the image offers a first, in-game glimpse of SHIB: The Metaverse project.

“This poster for Shib: The Metaverse is in a competition at SXSW23 for best movie poster. SHIB army, let SXSW know what you think! (And yes that’s a shot from inside the metaverse!).” 

In November 2022, Shiba Inu first revealed the concept artwork for its new metaverse.

According to a blog post, the project teamed up with visualization studio The Third Floor to create an immersive experience largely based on the feedback of the SHIB community.

“The idea for the Tech Trench environment is that of an immersive trench that was made from ancient times, and yet has evolved to a hyper technological avenue, due to its course process of education and knowledge from the millions of community members that embraced the atmosphere in a way of futuristic modernism and marvels alike.

This hub allows for a deeper connection with cultural reassurance and lessons learned from the innovative and daring journey SHIB as a project & community has endured.” 

Developers previously said that they will showcase the new metaverse at the 2023 SXSW music and film festival by allowing participants to experience a virtual reality tour of the WAGMI Temple, one of 11 hubs that displays SHIB’s history.

At time of writing, SHIB is trading for $0.00001, a $1.71 decrease on the day.
