ChAIR Entertainment has announced new partnership with Sandboxr to create custom collectibles for Infinity Blade. Read on.
ChAIR Entertainment, a division of Epic Games, Inc., today announced a partnership with 3D print and software development company Sandboxr, to introduce custom collectibles for the blockbuster Infinity Blade video game series. Originally introduced in 2010, ChAIR’s award-winning Infinity Blade games have attracted more than 50 million players worldwide and remain among the most popular to be launched on the App Store.
Utilizing Sandboxr’s sophisticated character customization and 3D printing process, fans of Infinity Blade will have the unique ability to effortlessly customize and order 3D printed statues of their characters from directly within the Infinity Blade III game interface – something that has not been done with any other video game before. ChAIR is also offering a selection of limited edition “Hero” statues designed by the Infinity Blade development team.
Coinciding with the announcement, ChAIR released a short “making-of” documentary, providing fans with the ability to go behind-the-scenes and watch the unique 3D printing process first-hand. View the video here: http://epic.gm/ibcollectiblesvid.
"The ability to take something from the virtual world, customize it, and push a button to transform it into the physical world is magic," said Donald Mustard, Co-Founder/Creative Director for ChAIR. "We're excited to introduce collectibles that allow fans to create what they decide is the ultimate expression of their character. We can’t wait to see all of their amazing Infinity Blade creations."
“With its focus on customization and strong characters, Infinity Blade is the perfect fit for our platform and is the ideal partner to launch the first in-game 3D printing experience,” said TJ Young, Co-Founder/President of Sandboxr. “With our proprietary software, state-of-the-art 3D printing facility and Infinity Blade’s customizable interface, there’s no limit to what fans can create.”
