Creator of the famous Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs, Yuga Labs has dropped the teaser trailer of their latest play-to-earn game called the "Otherside."

The trailer, which shows glimpses of different NFT collections notably Mutant Apes, CryptoPunks, and Meebits has set the speculation high with the masses waiting for an actual release date.

The team, which is also working on the Bored Ape Metaverse project, has also released its ApeCoin token earlier in March, which will reportedly act as the currency for all its in-game app purchases.

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT Game Announced

In a press release issued in December 2021, Bored Ape Yacht Club in association with Animoca brands announced that a new cryptocurrency game is in the works which are slated to release in Q2 2022. A new trailer has suggested the Otherside project could release as early as April 2022.

The trailer depicts a Bored Ape sitting in front of a clubhouse fishing. It then drinks a mystery potion that starts creating chaos around them, before revealing several other NFTs flying in a ship alongside the Ape.

ApeCoin was also pitched as an in-game currency token responsible for powering the BAYC ecosystem.

Following the reveal of ApeCoin, and Yugo Labs' teaser, several Twitter users began speculating about the scope of the project. This particularly focused on elements away from the BAYC NFT collection that feature in the trailer.

Animoca Brands have also provided a link to a site called SomethingIsBrewing.xyz. This is for users to complete KYC ahead of the game's launch in Q2.

We'll keep this page updated with more information about the BAYC NFT game when it comes, most likely in April.
