LOS ANGELES, March 29, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Today, HeroMaker Studios launches its first character series, Kumite. The debut NFT drop consists of 9,600 generative superheroes and villains.
About Kumite:
The year is 2050. A handful of dominant mega-corporations have amassed extraordinary power and are locked in a next-generation arms race to consolidate their powers. Armed with groundbreaking organic fabrication technology, these companies compete on the new frontier of synthetic being creation, bringing myth to life.
Dream Fields, the giant of agro-tech, has concocted Faeries and Goblins to tap into unknown parts of the natural world. Within the Caduceus Corporation, Angels inhabit the research labs and operating rooms, creating unprecedented faith in the ability of technology to halt the inevitable cycle of life and death… while Demons lurk.
What other synthetic beings will emerge from rival mega-corporations? And who will win the ultimate fight to control the governance of good and evil?
The Kumite roadmap represents how HeroMaker Studios brings stories to life with technology. The characters in this initial NFT drop will be featured in a community-driven comic book, a game, merchandise, and more. For more on Kumite and the roadmap, visit KumiteNFT.com.
Gareb Shamus, co-founder of HeroMaker Studios, says, “We’re so proud to release Kumite into the world. HeroMaker is a creative playground – not just for writers and artists who want a place to launch their next creation, but also for the fans and collectors who have been craving new ideas, new stories, and new ways to experience characters in the Metaverse.”
The dedicated Kumite team powering the roadmap has Web3 expertise across all disciplines, and includes over a dozen artists, expert storytellers, technologists, and top community managers.
Kumite kicks off a big year of new IP releases for HeroMaker Studios.
