LOAK, Inc announced that they are partnering with Splinterlands and Waka Flocka Flame to create an exclusive NFT drop. The NFT will have dual-utility, acting as both a limited-edition playable card in Splinterlands, as well as a digital fashion piece that can be worn using Augmented Reality in Snapchat.

When the Waka Spiritblade NFT is exported to an external wallet, such as a MetaMask wallet, the NFT will become a video of the wearable Waka Flocka headpiece, with a scannable QR code allowing the user to wear the Augmented Reality NFT in Snapchat! Users can wear the headpiece as an AR filter and share it across various social media platforms.

This announcement follows the success of LOAK’s first two exclusive NFT drops with hip-hop artist Waka Flocka Flame and celebrity surfer Kalani Robb. The drops sold out in hours, confirming people’s eager interest in wearable NFTs and cementing LOAK’s position in the space.

Commenting on the launch, LOAK CEO Jacob Safar says, “We’re excited to come together with Splinterlands and be the first to bridge NFTs, gaming, and AR. We believe that developing new mediums for art, creativity, and collaboration empowers personal expression and fosters an innovative society. We hope to push this idea forward with Splinterlands’ first ever in-game celebrity feature, hip-hop artist Waka Flocka Flame. This partnership with Waka and Splinterlands is just the start.”

How To Purchase:
The Waka Spiritblade NFT will be released for sale at 12pm EST on Thursday, February 24th, 2022 in the Splinterlands store. The sale will be conducted in 2 phases. The first phase will consist of 500 cards being sold in the new Splinterlands’ Promotion Store. 480 regular foil cards and 20 gold foil cards will be sold. Upon purchasing a card, there is a chance that it will be unpacked as a gold foil instead of a regular foil card.

Once the first 500 NFTs are sold in the Splinterlands’ store, the last 500 NFTs will be released on Splinterlands’ AtomicHub storefront in order to highlight the collectible fashion portion of the NFT that also includes the Snapchat QR code. The timing, pricing, and other details of the sale on AtomicHub will be announced after the in-game sale is completed.
