Aces of the Multiverse connects to XPLORA’s smartwatches for kids, and will register each player’s real-world steps, which can then be used as currency within the video game. Specifically, kids can exchange their steps for trading cards containing characters, items, and events that can help them as they play.

In addition to playing matches against computer-controlled opponents, kids can challenge friends and family to matches through local multiplayer, and complete a story mode.
