In what has been regarded as the first collaboration between a major global art institution and a top Chinese gaming IP, New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art recently partnered with Game for Peace, Tencent’s Chinese mobile version of Players’Unknown Battlegrounds, to showcase some of great artsworks like Monets’ and Van Gogh’s from its collections as part of a limited-time “fantasy journey” mode in the game.
This immersive experience encourages players to get up closer and explore the museum’s treasures, engaging them with arts appreciation through gaming.
