Yuga Labs will launch the social hub Koda Nexus for Otherside and a co-branded NFT character with Amazon

ChainCatcher news, according to Decrypt, Yuga Labs announced that the core social hub of its Bored Ape Yacht Club-themed metaverse project, Otherside, will officially open on November 12.

The opening of the hub and social center is just the first layer of the world's three-tier architecture. Next is the game layer, which will include numerous quests and battles created by developers and independent creators; there will also be the Otherside Development Kit (ODK), a toolkit for building and publishing works within the game world. In addition, Yuga Labs revealed that Otherside will land on the Amazon Games homepage, promoting its metaverse brand to millions of Amazon users.

The company will collaborate with Amazon to launch an exclusive co-branded Voyager character named "Boximus," which can explore the Otherside metaverse. Related merchandise will be available for sale in the Otherside brand store starting Thursday. Yuga has also partnered with artist Daniel Arsham to release a limited edition of 300 pieces of the Voyager series collectibles, which will blend exquisite artwork with interactive digital collectibles that can evolve over time.
