Multiverse Networks' Virtual Times Square


Multiverse Network, Inc., the company building the leading network of 3D virtual worlds, today unveiled Virtual Times Square. "With its electric nightlife, captivating architecture and cultural significance, New York's Times Square makes for a truly engaging demo world," said Bill Turpin, CEO and co-founder, The Multiverse Network, Inc. "Virtual Times Square eloquently demonstrates what our cutting-edge development platform is capable of delivering to anyone seeking to build high production-value worlds." Built by a small team within Multiverse in just over two months, Virtual Times Square is the latest Multiverse demo world that highlights the company's comprehensive development platform. Newly integrated features include Flash and YouTube video support, web integration, and next-generation lighting techniques.
"Multiverse is showing everyone the future of virtual worlds. Because of their efforts, the broader ecosystem of service and technology providers, builders, and consumers will benefit greatly," said Justin Bovington, CEO, Rivers Run Red. "Multiverse's Virtual Times Square represents the next step in the evolution of immersive spaces: dazzling environments with multiple video streams and detailed realism, offering experiences to thousands of users at once." Beginning today, anyone can visit Virtual Times Square using the revolutionary and free Multiverse World Browser -- a single, downloadable application that enables consumers to visit any world in the Multiverse Network. This and other demo worlds are available at www.multiverse.net. "In 2008, we'll see an explosion of ways that companies bring their brands into virtual worlds," said Sibley Verbeck, CEO and founder, The Electric Sheep Company. "We're excited about how Multiverse's mature platform will enable more opportunities to create rich and meaningful experiences for millions of people."
