Company profile
researched Aug 2026Wilder World is an online multiplayer metaverse built around Wiami, a neon-lit cyberpunk city described as spanning 10 districts and more than 100 neighborhoods. Players create avatars, race high-performance vehicles, engage in first-person shooter combat, complete RPG-driven missions across an open world, and extract and use in-game resources. In-game assets — from avatars and vehicles ("Wheels") to land — are represented as NFTs and traded on the Wilder World Metaverse Market (WWMM), where they function as gameplay items with dynamic attributes rather than purely as collectibles.
The project positions itself as a decentralized, community-governed virtual world combining real-time photorealism, virtual reality, artificial intelligence and blockchain technology, and is governed in part through Wilder World DAOs. Its stated long-term goal is a virtual "Network State" with mature in-world industries, a liquid NFT marketplace, play-to-earn mechanics, and partnerships with Web3 projects and artists. Development is organized into narrative "Acts" and roadmaps, including the earlier Simulation OS Roadmap and the current Act III milestones.
Delivered and in-progress components include Midnight in Wiami, a Super Early Access build with tournaments, the Genesis Land Drop, and the Metropolis economic layer. Roadmap items cover Metropolis 2.0, a WILD smart contract upgrade adding a burn function, daily check-ins and daily missions, Packs, an Avatar Creator, a refreshed Garage for vehicle customization, and a weapon customizer with loadouts.
Business model
Wilder World monetizes through the sale and secondary trading of in-game NFT assets on its Wilder World Metaverse Market, including avatars, vehicles, land and item Packs, with the $WILD ERC-20 token acting as the ecosystem's native currency. Planned Pack sales are priced at a fixed $10 USD payable in WILD, with one purchasable per day per player, and each Pack containing three in-game items carrying both gameplay utility and secondary market value.
Revenue is tied to NFT collection mints and marketplace activity plus token-denominated in-game purchases such as Packs; $WILD holders are described as receiving ecosystem revenue shares, voting rights and marketplace utility.
Traction
Wilder World has released playable experiences including Midnight in Wiami and Super Early Access, run community tournaments, completed the Genesis Land Drop, expanded the Metropolis economic layer, and launched a daily check-in reward on 29 September 2025 that lets players claim 3 WILD per day.
Latest developments
Current Act III milestones include Metropolis 2.0, a WILD smart contract upgrade adding a burn function, the live Daily Check-In, upcoming daily missions, Pack sales at $10 in WILD per day, V1 and V2 of the Avatar Creator, a refreshed Garage reading from connected ZERO wallets for vehicle customization, and a weapon customizer with preset loadouts.
▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography
Market position
Wilder World presents itself as a large-scale, photorealistic open-world metaverse with fully onchain asset ownership, distinguishing it from purely collectible-oriented NFT projects.
The project ties NFT ownership directly to gameplay: avatar gear, weapons and vehicle upgrades acquired through Packs affect armor, combat strategy and vehicle speed, control and handling, and assets disappear from a player's inventory and saved configurations if sold. It also pairs AAA-oriented photorealistic production with a DAO-governed, token-based economy.
Technology
The platform combines real-time photorealism, virtual reality, artificial intelligence and large-scale multiplayer technology with blockchain-based asset ownership. Assets are issued as NFTs, and the economy runs on the $WILD ERC-20 token, alongside a $MEOW token. Player-owned items must be held in connected ZERO wallets to be visible and usable in-game, and rewards such as the daily 3 WILD check-in claim are distributed on Z Chain. A planned WILD smart contract upgrade introduces a burn function intended to tie onchain interactions to supply reduction.
Go-to-market
Distribution is driven directly through the company's website, marketplace and store, supported by a public wiki and vision paper, Dev Logs, a ZINE publication, an ambassador program, live event showcases, community tournaments, and partnerships with Web3 projects and brands including a Lamborghini collection.
Web3 gamers, NFT collectors and token holders participating in the Wilder World economy, including racing and FPS players, landowners, creators and DAO participants.
Geography
Wilder World operates as an online, globally accessible virtual world and has showcased at live events internationally, with tournaments held on an international stage.
