Mythoverse and BharatBox are collaborating for the first time to bring the legendary story of Lord Krishna into the metaverse, a virtual digital world. The upcoming project will introduce an avatar collection and promises an immersive experience that reimagines Indian mythology for global gamers and digital natives alike.
The founder of Mythoverse and a celebrated producer, Madhu Mantena, has reacted to the collaboration and said, “To bring back Indian mythology and history, in all its glory, into the lives of young Indians.”
Mantena, who has long advocated for a new mythological universe, explained, “This is not just about digital collectibles. It’s about storytelling for the future. Krishna represents joy, wisdom, and rebellion — qualities the world needs to engage with differently today.”
He added, “With BharatBox and The Sandbox, we’re merging cultural depth with gamified technology to reintroduce these stories to a new generation.”
Meanwhile, Karan Keswani, CEO of BharatBox, also talked about the new launch and said, “We’re building more than a game — we’re building a cultural operating system for the metaverse.”
He added, “Partnering with Mythoverse enables us to honor the storytelling legacy of Indian epics, while translating them into gamified, participatory formats for global audiences.”
Developed in partnership with BharatBox, this launch marks the beginning of that universe in Web3. The projects will be designed to provide the players a new experience, chronicling Krishna’s journey, from the pastoral landscapes of Gokul to his legendary confrontation with Kamsa, through 2,850 unique, playable avatars that span five rarity tiers: Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary.
The creators have also shared the timeline of the launch of the project, which would commence with an allowlist on May 27, followed by the start of minting on June 3. On June 10, the avatar reveal and Krishna XP will launch. Through Krishna XP, the players will be able to embark on mythic quests, unlock secret lore zones, earn in-game rewards, and experience ancient narratives through interactive storytelling.
