In another boost for metaverse adoption, CBS becomes the first U.S. network to enter Decentraland. The news will surely help in driving Web3 adoption globally and bringing major media brands onboard.
Fans of the hit series Ghosts, the new comedy series from CBS, can now enjoy the Woodstone Mansion in a metaverse experience in Decentraland. CBS studios regard this as a new and fun way for fans to interact with the show’s haunted mansion, Woodstone.
CBS has made the metaverse experience part of their marketing campaign leading up to the second season of the co-production with Lionsgate TV and BBC Studios. The new hit CBS comedy season begins on the 29th of July.
The Ghosts game is a re-creation of the show’s haunted Woodstone mansion. To begin your immersive experience go to the entry portal in Decentraland. Then, choose an avatar from the show, and enter the haunted mansion to play the game.
The haunted mansion replicated the set of the show. Inside you will find charming interactions with the characters from the comedy show.
Chief Marketing Officer at CBS, Mike Benson, explained why they chose Ghosts for their first foray into the Metaverse.
“We are continually looking for innovative ways to further develop new audiences for CBS programming, and our hit series ‘Ghosts,’ with its significant following, wide-ranging otherworldly characters and expansive setting, seemed like a natural fit for the Metaverse,”.
He went on, “This super engaging and elaborate Web3, ‘Ghosts’ game in Decentraland brings the series to life in an exciting way that’s never been done, enabling visitors to each have their own very unique experience while exploring the world of the show.”
On your adventure, you earn NFTs as rewards if you can solve puzzles and complete quests. The NFTs will become part of the comedy’s history. There are 1100 NFTs allotted to each character.
The collectibles come in different rarities and are located on the carbon-neutral Polygon blockchain network.
