**TORONTO, Canada, April 22nd, 2024/GamingWire/--**Parallel Studio, the visionary gaming studio that blends art and technology to create cutting-edge gaming experiences, is excited to launch its award winning trading card game on the Epic Games Store. With a team hailing from the likes of Blizzard, Epic Games, Ubisoft, Riot Games, and Xbox Game Studios, Parallel is on course to make waves in the card gaming world. Parallel is a free-to-play digital trading card game set in a captivating sci-fi universe, where five parallel evolutions of humanity battle for control of Earth 10,000 years in the future. Players collect cards, build 40-card decks combining cards from one of the five factions and the Universal pool, and engage in strategic battles against their peers. There are several points that separate Parallel from other TCGs in the space (ex. Magic the Gathering, Hearthstone, etc). Free to Play: players can play and earn cards with no purchase necessary. On top of that, Parallel compensates players that play for free by automatically entering them into weekly and monthly giveaways every season. This is on top of rewards players can get through in-game tournaments, battle pass, referring friends and winning ranked matches.
Bank Cards for Energy: players strategically choose which cards to bank each turn, gaining energy that allows them to play units, relics, effects and upgrades. Players will find that choosing what card to bank and what card to play is critical, as the right combination can create a powerful winning strategy.
Paragons & Factions: Parallel has 5 unique factions with 15 game changing leaders (Paragons) each with their own active/passive abilities helping players craft a unique play style.
Play At Your Pace: Parallel has different game modes for all types of players. Beginners and casual players can enjoy modes like unranked, AI and rookie. Competitive players can participate in the Ranked Ladder and Tournament Modes to earn exclusive rewards and prizes. Parallel is truly built for TCG veterans and new players to the genre. Founded in 2021, Parallel has already seen quite a bit of success. Despite its TCG being in open beta, the game has already won several game of the year awards. The studio has also announced a prize pool of $500,000 for its 2024 competitive scene. Along with that, several professional players and prominent creators that played Hearthstone have joined Parallel’s ambassador program, priming the game to be the next big TCG. Finally, the studio recently released an expansion set called "Planetfall" that is currently playable. The expansion set added over 100 new cards to the game and the studio plans to launch more expansion sets in the future. Quotes From Parallel "Our journey has been nothing short of extraordinary, and being on Epic marks a significant milestone in our global expansion strategy," says Sascha M, CEO & Co-Founder of Parallel. “Parallel going live on Epic opens us up to millions more players worldwide. This expansion into Epic comes alongside the kickoff of our global competitive series, the Parallel League, which has over $500,000 in prizes in its first year. But we don't plan to stop there. As we roll out more ways to access and play Parallel we also plan to scale our competitive prize pool into millions of dollars next year.” - Franklin Fitch, Head of Partnerships, Parallel Studios About Parallel Studios Parallel Studios is a revolutionary game development company creating the next AAA sci-fi franchise. Current projects include the Parallel TCG, an exciting science fiction card game in which five factions battle for supremacy over a future Earth, and Parallel Colony, an AI-powered idle game in which you play through conversation with your Avatar.

Parallel TCG Releases On Epic Games Store

The game industry is on the verge of undergoing a dramatic transition as a result of the launch of Wilder World, a massively multiplayer online metaverse of the next generation that combines old knowledge with cutting-edge technology in a seamless manner. It was just announced that this virtual world would be available for wishlisting on the Epic Games Store. The enormous city of Wiami is home to this attraction, which boasts an immersive experience unlike any other. In Wilder World, players have the chance to shape their own future by using a decentralised environment that encourages freedom and innovation. They must rebel against the authoritarian Government and forge their own path within this setting. Epic Games Store Listing: A Strategic Leap The decision to list Wilder World on the Epic Games Store, a platform boasting over 270 million total users and 75 million monthly active users, is a testament to the game's ambitious vision,  Frank Wilder, Co-founder of Wilder World, articulates this strategic move as "setting the pace for next-gen gaming in the metaverse." Epic Games and Wilder World have joined forces because they share the same goals and values: to change the status quo, especially the unfair middlemen that have been holding back the video game industry for a long time. The fact that Wilder World works with Nvidia's GeForce Now and SuperVerse shows how far it can spread. These deals make it possible for Wilder World to reach gamers on both the Web2 and Web3 networks. The company shows its commitment to keeping prices low while still supporting a huge world full of games by focusing on growth, which is made possible by relationships with Polygon and Celestia. Working with Metagravity also means that the virtual worlds can hold thousands of people, which makes it feel like you're really in the game. Coming of AAA Blockchain Games The game community is holding its breath as Wilder World gets ready for its wider release in 2024. The alpha testing process has already shown signs that this metaverse could change the rules of online games. Wilder World is more than just a game. It's a gateway to a new era of digital travel and connection, with its unique mix of old knowledge and cutting-edge technology from the future. Getting together with Epic Games Store is just the start of Wilder World's journey. The vast world of Wiami has a lot of room for growth and change, and that can only happen as more players explore it. This is what Frank Wilder put it: "to create a novel experience using cutting-edge technology, offering players a virtual space for gaming, socialising, and earning." With this kind of vision driving the project, Wilder World is set to become a model of freedom and new ideas in the metaverse. A Deep Dive into Wiami's Expansive Universe A competitive racing game that is presently in alpha testing and is scheduled for a wider release in 2024, Wilder World's first experience takes place in the city, which serves as the background for the game. Every region of the cosmos has a tale to tell, every race is a challenge, and every contact is an opportunity to create friendships that will last a lifetime. This is only the beginning of what promises to be an ever-evolving world. Not only is Wilder World a video game, but it is also an AAA enterprise of the future generation that showcases the pinnacle of photorealistic images and is equipped with complete artificial intelligence inside the game itself. The team that was in charge of creating the engine itself built it, and they used the cutting-edge Unreal Engine all throughout the process. Participating in a full economy in which everything from items and equipment to land and avatars exists as transferable digital assets is the goal of this metaverse. The objective of this metaverse is not restricted to just playing; rather, it is to actively participate in this economy. The fact that players have the capacity to earn genuine income makes it conceivable for a new paradigm to emerge in which gaming, socialising, and economic participation are all combined. Visit Wilder World's website and follow their X account to find out what's going on with them. Don't miss your chance to be a part of this groundbreaking project. Put Wilder World on your request on the Epic Games Store right now and be the first to create a new era of freedom and creation in the metaverse. Don’t forget to like and share the story!

LEGAL FRAMEWORK Preliminary injunctive relief, whether in the form of a temporary restraining order or a preliminary injunction, is an "extraordinary and drastic remedy," that is never awarded as of right. , , , (2008) (internal citations omitted). "It is so well settled as not to require citation of authority that the usual function of a preliminary injunction is to preserve the status quo ante litem pending a determination of the action on the merits." , (9th Cir. 1963). A preliminary injunction is "not a preliminary adjudication on the merits but rather a device for preserving the status quo and preventing the irreparable loss of rights before judgment." , (9th Cir. 1984) (citation omitted).

, the highly-anticipated Web 3 game, has recently rolled out its Beta, and the way it's been rolled out is raising some eyebrows in the gaming community. The Beta version of the game could soon be available on the Epic Games launcher and includes Epic online services already, leading many to speculate about a potential collaboration between Kiraverse's parent company, , and . Kiraverse Param Labs Epic Games Epic Games, the developer of the popular game Fortnite and the creator of the Unreal Engine, has been making waves in the gaming industry with its aggressive push into the world of blockchain and NFTs. It's worth noting that the inclusion of Epic online services in the Beta version of Kiraverse is not a coincidence. Epic Games has been making a big push into the world of blockchain and NFTs, and the company's Unreal Engine is the most advanced and widely used game engine in the industry. The inclusion of Epic's services in the Beta version of Kiraverse could be a sign that the two companies are working together to bring NFTs to life in the game. Many players and fans in subreddit have been discussing this potential collaboration, with some even speculating that the partnership could be announced in the coming months. Some of the from went , drawing attention to the potential collaboration. r/superstonk posts r/superstonk viral At this point, it's unclear what exactly the relationship between Param Labs and Epic Games is, but the inclusion of Epic's services in the Beta version of Kiraverse is certainly intriguing. The gaming industry is rapidly evolving, and it's becoming increasingly clear that blockchain and NFTs are the future of gaming. A collaboration between Param Labs and Epic Games would be a major step forward for the industry, and it's something that many players and fans are eagerly looking forward to. It's worth noting that, as of today, there's no official confirmation about the collaboration between Param Labs and Epic Games. However, the inclusion of Epic's services in the Beta version of Kiraverse and the speculations from the community are indeed raising curiosity and excitement among players.

Is Epic Games Partnering with Kiraverse?

It’s worth reading this from Matthew Ball about Epic Game’s long-term strategy over the years and where it’s leading. lengthy article I wrote last year ( ) about how Sweeney’s vision has been akin to a Blue Ocean Strategy all along, that the prize for the metaverse was the ultimate goal for the use of Unreal Engine. republished recently on LinkedIn “At Epic we succeed when developers succeed.” It’s true that Epic’s strategy has been to remove as many barriers for developers to gain access to their tools as possible at the expense of revenue — the majority of games will never hit over $1m in revenue so Epic will get no license fee revenue themselves. But with the metaverse being the goal there’s absolutely no way that, if achieves the promise of democratization for content creators, we should believe people using Unreal to build their virtual worlds and content won’t be making these numbers. web3 It’s a $5 trillion industry after all if the numbers are to be believed. “This Metaverse is going to be far more pervasive and powerful than anything else. If one central company gains control of this, they will become more powerful than any government and be a god on Earth.” Tim has been very vocal about centralized platforms and walled gardens like Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft taking control, rightly so. But what about centralized ecosystems? Just look at the diagram here — there is nothing decentralized about Epic in the slightest. Matthew’s article goes into a lot of detail about Epic’s financial strategy, and seemingly altruistic approaches toward the developer community. It’s certainly helped the cause by taking on Apple’s app store policies, and also Unity being a complete clusterfuck of a company itself (I’ve had so many conversations with devs who are ditching for Unreal after their latest merger). “Whatever form this medium ultimately takes, our biggest hope is that we can play a role in it, whether we’re the creators of the big thing or technology supplier to it, or even better, if it’s a decentralized distributed system that combines everybody’s efforts and connects them in a much more open way.” Tim never talks about making money because that’s not his interest or motive. Some people want to make billions, some just want to watch the world burn. Tim is motivated by power — the power to be the one that owns the development infrastructure to build the metaverse. If Tim says Epic will support NFTs the market breathes a sigh of relief because if Epic said ‘no’ where are you going to go? Unity? LMAO I firmly believe Epic will crack interoperability before everyone else, or certainly provide a mechanism for it that will tie it back to Unreal and offer it for free. Eventually, he will make the money, not now but in 10–15 years when everyone using Unreal starts raking in — $1m in metaverse terms is tiny. If they were really supportive of the development community they’d tell them about all the that exist across the industry. In fact, if VC firms like Andreessen Horowitz were serious about the ideology behind web3, democratization and decentralization they’d be pumping money into the open source community. But they aren’t. open source alternatives Unreal is seen as the welcome antidote in the industry but it’s actually the drug. And you’ll all be hooked. That’s Blue Ocean. Also Published Here

Why Epic Games Isn’t The Metaverse Hero We Deserve 

Crypto pioneers are placing bets on gaming to deliver the first billion people to blockchain despite big publishers holding back. Tony Cheng of Decentraland says they’ll never get onboard. Meanwhile Ubisoft moves forward with Blockchain Game Alliance. When will CryptoKitties make a cameo in South Park Phone Unleashed? CNBC’s Ran Neu Ner with Initialized Capital’s Garry Tan, photo by Martine Paris If 2017 was about fundraising, and 2018 was about infrastructure, then 2019 will be about mass adoption, but whether global payments or nonfungible tokens (NFTs) are the killer dApp is up for debate. Many crypto pioneers at SF Blockchain Week said they’re placing bets on gaming, including Garry Tan of Initialized Capital, an investor in , Bart Stephens of Blockchain Capital, an investor in an NFT exchange, and Jeremy Gardner of Augur and Ausum Ventures. Horizon Blockchain Games OpenSea At Global Blockchain Forum, Tan told CNBC’s Ran Neu Ner, “The first mass adoption product will be a mobile game where the end user won’t even know they’re doing a transaction on the Ethereum network when buying a digital good or participating in a marketplace. We’ll start to see this in 18 months or less. It’s not too far away. My partner Alexis Ohanian recently visited the Fortnite guys… people spend an insane amount of money on digital goods.” Gardner added, “Some time in the next one to two years there will be a Pokemon Go-like game where people collect NFTs with unique characteristics to level up, that have real world value, and can be exchanged with anyone in the world. We’ll see a burgeoning economy emerge out of some game and assets issued in that game will be interoperable with assets of other games. Gaming will be the first case with tens of millions of daily active users of crypto. NFTs make gaming and online collectibles more valuable. The amount of time adolescents spend on games is outrageous and they don’t make money on it. If people can make money on games they’re playing, that sounds like the future to me!” At Back To The Crypto Future, Blockchain Capital’s Bart Stephens said, “One of the areas that we are seeing organic demand in startup activity and end user activity is the intersection of video games and crypto — nonfungible tokens. If you play a game like World of Warcraft or Second Life, there are tens of millions, and if you include Asia, over a hundred million users that live and play in these virtual worlds with virtual economies and virtual currencies, and you can have virtual objects, but at the end of the day until this year, all of those objects weren’t owned by you. You might have spent a year of your life getting some super special fire sword but it turns out that in World of Warcraft you don’t own that fire sword. Blizzard Entertainment owned by Activision, a public company, owns that fire sword. So if you try to sell it for U.S. dollars, you are out of luck as a gamer. That is changing now. Persistent worlds, even casual games, you can earn something in game slaying a dragon and get a magical coat of armor, you can pull that out of the game, go to OpenSea and sell it for Bitcoin, and go to Coinbase and sell your Bitcoin for U.S. Dollars. CryptoKitties was the first example of that. There will be many more games that capture the notion that videogamers own the experience and work product and results of some endeavor online. So that is an area where we’re actually seeing an organic demand envirnoment unlike some of the other areas which are still early stage like enterprise adoption, still at the proof of concept stage.” When asked what’s standing in the way of adoption, Tan replied, “It’s how users are being onboarded. Founders need to remove steps. There are too many steps. It’s hard to get your hands on crypto, then once you have it you need to transfer it to a wallet.

NFTs Not Coming to Fortnite Says Epic Games

Since its release in 2017, Fortnite has become a social media phenomenon. The online game was created by Epic Games and it has always been changing and providing the players with new ways to play and socialize within the Fortnite ecosystem. Two of the most important updates of Fortnite are Fortnite Creative and Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN). These tools have turned Fortnite into more than a game and a stage for self-expression, and possibly monetization. Let’s explore the history of Fortnite Creative and UEFN, and highlight five trends that suggest why they are poised to become the next big creative moneymakers. I sat down with the team at NEIGHBOR -  a unique UGC game-studio based out of Tokyo, Japan that is focused solely on creating unique games and experiences within UEFN. Founded in 2022, the studio has released dozens of games within Fortnite and has quickly expanded to become a true metaverse company. With employees on three different continents, they work together remotely despite language barriers to create memorable games for a global audience. From making cute games with their own original characters to creating immersive brand experiences, NEIGHBOR has tackled it all and has no plans to slow down anytime soon. Disclaimer: Author is currently the Head of Brand for NEIGHBOR. A Brief History of Fortnite Creative and UEFN Fortnite Creative Fortnite Creative was released in December 2018, which is the island generation mode that gives players the flexibility of creating their own games, challenges, and experiences that can be shared with the community. Fortnite Creative introduced a new approach that focused more on capturing content made by players and their creativity. “Fortnite is consistently evolving and expanding its presence in the metaverse and has a proven track record of being able to adapt to industry and consumer changes,” suggests Grace Lind, Head of Business Development for NEIGHBOR. Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN) On March 19, 2023, Epic Games expanded upon Fortnite Creative with the release of Unreal Editor for Fortnite (UEFN), more commonly referred to by the community as Creative 2.0. UEFN combines the utility of Unreal Editor, the game editor created and used by Epic Games, with Fortnite Creative. With this integration, creators are able to build more intricate and visually appealing creations utilizing the tools and capabilities of Unreal Editor within Fortnite. UEFN gives more authority and freedom to creators so that they can work without restrictions and create whatever they desire in high quality. “The innovative aspect of Fortnite is that it allows individuals to develop high-quality online 3D games without incurring significant costs and enables them to generate substantial personal revenue. NEIGHBOR is one of the companies that quickly jumped into this industry. Unlike other creators, NEIGHBOR isn't focused on short-term profits. Instead, they consider Fortnite, with its approximately 100 million users, as a marketing tool for their own IP. Their long-term goal is to create characters like Pokémon and SONIC and build a successful IP business,” offers Notef, CEO at NEIGHBOR. Five Trends to Watch Out For Rise of User-Generated Content (UGC) UGC has always been present in gaming, yet with Fortnite Creative and the outlined UEFN, the possibilities are taken to a whole new level. Players can now build impressive environments, rich storylines, and exciting game mechanics that are very close to what professional game makers can offer. This democratization of game development implies that virtually anyone who has a design idea can create a successful game within Fortnite. The extent to which UGC is feasible is apparent through custom maps, game modes, and experiences that garner millions of followers. With these tools in place, the quality, and variety of UGC remain high, bringing more players and retaining community interest. Monetization Opportunities for Creators Creators are valuable for Epic Games and they created a bunch of ways to monetize it and share the revenue. This means that, by joining the Support-A-Creator program, creators receive real money when players make in-game purchases using their special code. Furthermore, in recent years, Epic has launched the Creator Economy 2.0, which enables creators to receive a percentage of earnings derived from users’ creations. In using UEFN, creators still have more ways on how they can generate revenues since they can now sell premium experiences and features. This shift towards a creator-centric economy is a massive trend that will encourage more people to dedicate time and resources and into producing high-quality content. Integration of Advanced Technologies Using Fortnite Creative, the integration of Unreal Engine offers a great potential for creators. Several new solutions, including realistic ray tracing, realistic physics, and high-fidelity graphics, can be tested in distinctly crafted expansion packs. Such depth has been available to professional game developers only, but now, UEFN makes these tools available to the general public. Therefore, the quality of custom experiences will sky-high since more players will be interested in engaging with a one-of-a-kind game with absolutely fantastic graphics. This trend will not only improve the quality of the player experience but also positively influence the perception of UGC in Fortnite. “I think Fortnite UEFN is a fantastic tool for brands to create games within Fortnite. By using the advanced features and tools within UEFN, it makes it easier to build unique game experiences, with the possibility of including their own brand and IP. Working with NEIGHBOR as their Community Manager has been a very exciting experience! My role is to ensure that the games NEIGHBOR produce are play tested and flawless, before they are published and enjoyed by players on Fortnite. From there, I gather player feedback and handle promotion via hosting events for NEIGHBOR and managing streamers to ensure their games can be enjoyed by everyone,” says Tom Cornish, a Fortnite streamer and Community Manager for NEIGHBOR. Expansion of Esports and Competitive Play Since the beginning, Fortnite has also been deeply associated with the esports scene with large prizes and competitive environment. However, with the addition of Fortnite Creative and UEFN, new opportunities for competitive expansions are on the horizon. It allows creators to build new maps and modes which can be more suitable for competitive play than anything which can be formed by the imagination on the regular basis. Such expansion will facilitate the creation of new esports events based on UGC, thus generating extra revenue for creators as well as attracting the general public to the esports events. The esports trend based on UGC will contribute to a greater level of differentiation and decentralisation in competitiveness. Community Collaboration and Social Interaction The aspect of togetherness is also well captured by Fortnite Creative and UEFN since they unite people within the metaverse. These tools are social, thus, they make players engage in teamwork to accomplish complex goals and, thus, create togetherness. The ability to build structures, play in them and share with friends is an important factor of social interaction in Fortnite and the creative modes develop this aspect. The general tendency towards the development of more elaborate and interactive community events will result in even more captivating scenarios and the further solidarity within the Fortnite community. This social component will help engage players in the game and the creative process around it. UEFN and Fortnite Creative are revolutionizing the gaming industry by giving players the ability to create. These are the opportunities for user-generated content, monetization, technological advancements, esports, and community engagement, which suggest that the potential of these tools is almost limitless. Fortnite is constantly growing and with the added possibilities for creatives as the game progresses, more and more people will join in as creators and players. Epic Games has come up with a platform that not only provides games for entertainment but also comes up with ideas, and thus, Fortnite Creative and UEFN are the next big creative producers of money in the gaming industry.
