With access to the Season 2 Alpha Pass, players will be able to compete for exclusive rewards and receive up to 1,000 $SAND tokens (about $3000).

The Chief Operating Officer of the Sandbox Sebastien Borget spoke with Venturebeat on the next season, stating:

"Alpha Season 2 will build on the success of the first Alpha Season, which attracted over 200,000 visitors, earned 90% positive feedback, and distributed over five million $SAND."

By having several big names in its metaverse including game publishers, fashion brands, music artists, and cartoons, the Sandbox sets to expand even more, with Borget promising even more metaverse experiences coming in Season 2.
