Ahead of the upcoming Men’s Hockey World Cup, Hockey India launched the ‘Hockeyverse’ on their social media platforms on Monday and become India’s first national sports federation to enter the world of the metaverse.
The ‘Hockeyverse’ has some unique features and attractions like the replica of Rourkela stadium and ‘The Time Machine’ which is designed based on time travel elements.
This will provide a virtual experience in which hockey fans from all around the globe can visit and experience their favorite sport from the comfort of their home.
By going into the ‘Hockeyverse’ URL in your browser, you will be welcomed to the ‘hockeyverse’ virtual world page. Then fans can enter their name, and email address and then proceed to select their virtual Avatar’s gender. After doing all this, the final step is to click on the ‘Enter Hockeyverse’ button.
There is also a Photo Booth feature where fans can take selfies with players. The fan can have a glimpse of how the team’s room would look like.
Bholanath Singh, Secretary General of Hockey India said:
“Hockey India has taken a giant leap into the future with this innovative initiative of launching the Hockeyverse which is a great way to get people, particularly youngsters, engaged and excited about hockey. This new metaverse platform is immersive and interactive and those who can’t be here in Rourkela and Bhubaneswar to experience the best of world hockey can use this platform to connect with the event and enjoy it.”
Fans would be forwarded to the new site where they can buy their favorite hockey related products.
