2024/10/08


TAIPEI, Taiwan, October 8, 2024—ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) and ASUS Metaverse today announced the release of the SL@SH206 Web3 project, which creates a gamified experience and Web3 community where players can explore the virtual world and unleash their creativity. The AI-generated stories are supported by cloud technology from Taiwan Web Service Corporation (TWSC), a subsidiary of ASUS. SL@SH206 is targeting users worldwide and is expected to support both Chinese and English languages.

Innovative Web3 gaming ecosystem

SL@SH206 is the first step in collaboration on virtual experiences between ASUS Metaverse and the ROG brand; it is built using Web3 technology that immerses players in a cyberpunk world. Players take on the role of an amnesiac robot, ZEI-6, in a society where humanity has sought refuge in the virtual world. Through AI-generated content and a gamified experience, they will gradually uncover the secrets of the SL@SH206 world. Along the way, players can discover various virtual objects, trigger game events, and be able to get SL@SH206 digital collectibles by completing missions. Additionally, players can join the official Discord community, where they can interact and participate in mini-games to accumulate points and earn valuable rewards.
ASUS has long focused on industry development, maintaining its technological leadership through an innovative spirit. Web3 represents the next stage of internet development, integrating decentralization, blockchain technology, and decentralized applications (DApps). ASUS Metaverse is 100% owned by ASUS and is focused on the Web3 domain. It integrates ASUS Group's resources in cloud computing, artificial intelligence, blockchain, and other technologies, demonstrating its long-term commitment to deeply cultivating emerging technologies. By embracing Web3, ASUS aims to provide users with a more secure, transparent, and decentralized internet experience, while also exploring new business models and markets.
ASUS Metaverse is also actively planning the Sparkle point system, which will be applied within the ASUS ecosystem, providing users with a tangible experience of connecting Web2 and Web3 utility experiences. At this stage, users can collect Sparkle points by completing tasks on the ASUS Metaverse Plaza marketplace. These points can be used to unlock different levels of identity rewards, such as future token airdrops to Sparkle points holders. Additionally, the SL@SH206 digital collectible serves as an identity proof for ROG Web3. Moving forward, ASUS Metaverse will continue to expand its Web3 collaboration services. For example, when players unlock mission stages of SL@SH206, they can earn Sparkle points that can be redeemed for future virtual token airdrops or other rewards — offering users a richer, more value-added experience.
With the launch of the SL@SH206 website, players can experience AI stories and other interactive content — and coming soon a brick-breaking mini-game. In the future, players will be able to link their crypto wallets and complete guided missions to receive free airdrop digital collectibles, such as Relic. Additionally, players can explore a variety of Relic collectibles on the ASUS Metaverse Plaza.
