This is our second year supporting National Day Parade. We started in 2020 by providing our digital ticket scanners to support NDP’s digitalisation. This year, we have introduced Xctualyfe’s “phygital” experience as one of the NDP 2022 activities.
Singaporeans can enter the NDP Xctualyfe metaverse to fly a Black Knight, perform free-fall as a Red Lion and dance to this year’s theme song Dance of the Nation. Players earn NDP Coins and we have collaborated with other NDP partners to enable redemption for prizes at vending machines.
