About The Talk

How We Created The NBA Pixel Arena: The Future Of Fandom

Showcase how we created one of the biggest digital experiences of the year. The NBA and Google partnered with Jam3 & Media.Monks to build an immersive, multiplayer 3D world inside the NBA app designed to engage the next generation of fans.

 

Inside Pixel Arena, fans can customize their avatar in futuristic street-style looks, reenact legendary NBA plays and play battle royale mini-games against other fans to unlock new exclusive merch.
