Omens Studios is launching the Omens Multiverse to take animation and movie-based IPs into virtual reality and interactive experiences.

Omens Studios is also developing Roblox experiences for its award-winning preschool adventure series Leo the Wildlife Ranger. These experiences for young children, to be released in Q2 2023, are designed to be a safe, fun and engaging extension to the series.

The Omens Multiverse site launched earlier this week and comes with a web3 framework based on the Ethereum blockchain. NFT holders will be able to earn Omens’ special token, the Omens Multiverse Token (OMT), which can be used to claim a number of benefits as well as in-world items in the VR experience.

The studio has two projects currently in development, Circle Line and Oasis, which will both be available as VR experiences and have NFT collections.

Circle Line—based on Taipan Films’ Circle Line movie, with visual effects created by Omens Studios—will offer an NFT collection produced with algorithmic generation and is scheduled to be released in late December 2022, ahead of the movie’s release in Singapore and Malaysia on January 5, 2023. The Circle Line VR experience is set to be released in Q4 2023.

Through the program, NFT holders will be entitled to benefits such as movie tickets, access to exclusive members-only content, promotional codes for merchandise and whitelist spots for priority NFT access in other Omens Multiverse projects. In addition to these perks, the NFTs can be staked to earn OMTs, which can be used to claim a free download of the VR experience in Q4 2023 as well as other special in-world items.

Oasis, based on Omens Studios’ first animated short film of the same name, will involve a brand-new series of interactive VR stories. The NFT collection for Oasis is scheduled to be released in Q2 2023, with the VR experience launching Q4 2023.

Chi Sim Tang, CEO of Omens Studios, said: “We have put together a passionate team of experts to make our digital goals a reality and provide our audiences with further opportunity to explore not only our popular IPs, but to work with partners and brands to expand on their incredible storytelling and give their fans an interactive and immersive experience not possible in TV and movies. All three projects we have in development felt like a natural fit for digital extensions with their themes of adventure and the ability to transport audiences to new places or even worlds.”
