Winter is coming in the form of ‘Game of Thrones’ NFTs as Warner Bros. Discovery, and HBO are partnering with Nifty’s to launch NFTs based on the high-rated fantasy drama show.
According to the announcement, 3D-content company Daz 3D will collaborate with Warner Bros. Discovery on the design, development, and production of the “Game of Thrones: Build Your Realm” NFT experience.
The Game of Thrones: Build Your Realm NFT experience will initiate with an initial sale of unique GOT-inspired avatars, which will be bundled with a pack of digital collectibles “allowing users to begin their journey and upgrade their avatar.”
Warner Bros. Discovery did not disclose the price of the GOT NFTs or other details other than to affirm that the launch will occur later in 2022. So, “You know nothing” yet!!
The NFT experience will also comprise “thematic activities, on-site engagement, and additional digital collectibles.”
The follow-on “Game of Thrones” NFTs will be available as assorted packs and come in various types, including “equipables” like weapons, companions, or gear that will let GOT fans customize their avatars.
Other “GOT” NFT collectible types will include “iconic moments, locations, characters, and more” from the top series with its fan base worldwide.
Jeff Marsilio, CEO and Co-Founder of Nifty’s stated “Nifty’s is thrilled to be working alongside Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products to keep pushing the bounds of creativity and imagination, through a new kind of digital collectible that will allow fans of the franchise to connect in ways they never have before.”

This is not Warner Bros’ first collaboration with Nifty’s. Last month Warner Bros released ‘Lord of the Rings’ NFTs in partnership with Eluvio. In September, Funko partnered with Warner Bros for DC Comics’ NFT release, and following that Game of Thrones NFTs landed on Metaverse via Funko Digital Pop.
