Within this immersive virtual world, Tafi’s Astra SDK will help developers deliver and monetize full-body 3D avatar creation experiences for games and apps, while streamlining the user experience. Highstreet’s marketplace is the first of its kind, bringing together various phygital products — digital assets pegged to real-world products — and blockchain technology.

“Earlier this year, we leveraged Tafi’s avatar solutions to demonstrate our virtual store and commerce metaverse to some of the world’s top brands,” said Travis Wu, CEO of Highstreet. “Given that overwhelmingly positive experience, we are thrilled to announce our deeper partnership to integrate Tafi’s character creator engine into our flagship Highstreet World product, the first-of-its-kind commerce-based metaverse platform.”
