At the Galaxy Unpacked conference at 23:00 tonight, Samsung will launch the Galaxy S22 series. Due to the epidemic, this conference is still in the form of an online release, but unlike last year, Samsung introduced the concept of “metaverse” for the first time, and Galaxy S22 fans can also get NFT by doing tasks while watching the show.
In a press release on Tuesday, Samsung’s announcement that there will be a Metaverse unit at the Galaxy S22 series launch appears to be a complex marketing push that mixes and matches quite a few themes. Samsung wants to let fans watch the Galaxy S22 in action through the Metaverse through its Samsung 837X Decentraland portal.
At the same time, it also intends to focus on environmental issues. This will be a big talking point during the Galaxy S22 event. After all, Samsung just announced that it uses recycled ocean fishing nets to make its new Galaxy flagships. There is also a quest involved in this environment-centric metaverse Galaxy S22 experience, and users can earn an NFT after completing the quest.
Samsung is hosting a scavenger hunt inside the 837X. A character in the digital world will tell players how to start a treasure hunt. You’ll need to hunt 10 Recyclable Product Boxes in and around the building. Combine them and upgrade them into “magic stuff”. Complete the quest and you’ll get a seed that you must plant in a sustainable forest.
Again, this is not a real place, but a digital world in the Samsung Metaverse. This seed will earn you a special NFT badge. You have to return to Samsung Yuan Space on February 14th — yes, Valentine’s Day — to complete missions and earn NFT badges that will show your love for the forest.
