'Klang Games,' the Berlin-based web3 video game developer, announced that it recently raised a total of $41 million USD to accelerate the development of its upcoming 'Seed' project. Seed is the name given to a massively-multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that will be expansively populated by artificial intelligence (AI)-controlled digital humans.
With Seed, Klang Games hopes to revolutionize the MMORPG industry by creating one of the largest, most persistent, and most influential virtual worlds to date. Seed will be a sci-fi MMORPG where players can create and manage colonies, engage in large-scale wars with other players, and contribute to a virtual living world. The phrase 'living world' refers to the facts that players will remain in-game even while they log out, and that the world will change and adapt based on the actions of each player.
