Walker Labs is the bleeding-edge creative Blockchain Gaming Studio and home of the NFT Brand/Blockchain Game, Cryptowalkers, at the forefront of Web 3. In December 2021, we launched our first Metaverse-ready unique collection of 6,545 full body, fully rigged, animated 3D walking avatars. We are building a third person P&E multiplayer shooter game on Unreal Engine 5 with renowned AAA talent in Stockholm, Sweden. We had our sold out Weapons collection in Spring 2022, and are preparing for our Female collection launch as we build an industry leading Multimedia NFT brand for the Open Metaverse that focuses on Play-and-Earn multiplayer gaming with integrated NFTs, digital identity, and cross-world experiences.

We have secured some high-caliber business development and partnership deals since our inception, and are excited to continue this momentum as we focus on interoperability and have the desire to onboard other high-caliber NFT collections to Walker World. The team is scaling rapidly, and we are hiring for a Business Development & Partnerships Manager.
