This collaborative effort is expected to give rise to a highly significant and effective Web3 game fund, nurturing Creta's ecosystem on a high-performance blockchain.

 
The current development of the Creta platform is spearheaded by Diverse, a specialized Metaverse and game development company in Korea, renowned for its high-performance game engine technology and exceptional graphic capabilities. The Web3-based platform utilizes the high-performance public blockchain known as the Locus Chain. In contrast to traditional Metaverse platforms, Creta stands out by implementing an expansive multi-verse that allows numerous Metaverses to interconnect and expand seamlessly, all presented in photorealistic visual quality. One distinctive feature of Creta is its utilization of the high-performance blockchain mainnet, Locus Chain, which has the capability to replace a significant portion of the server's role in online games. This innovation not only enhances the platform's efficiency but also positions Creta with a formidable competitive edge. By potentially saving infrastructure costs ranging from hundreds of billions to trillions of dollars, depending on user scale, Creta is establishing itself as a powerful player in the industry.
