Crocs Expands Crocs World Within ZEPETO and Roblox Metaverses
Crocs, a global leader in innovative casual footwear, and global esports organisation Gen.G, are collaborating once again to present the latest edition of Crocs World, marking its second year building into Crocs World on both ZEPETO and Roblox metaverse platforms.
Fans can participate in the new #CrocsxZEPETO Personalize Your Classics Design Contest in ZEPETO launched on September 8, with the winning design being made available to purchase as a virtual item within the Crocs collection on ZEPETO, as well as a phygital version of their personalised Classic Clog. In Roblox, “Crocs World Tycoon” will launch on September 15 to provide fans with an entirely new gameplay experience where players can customise their Crocs in-game with different styles and colours.
As part of Crocs’ Personalise Your Classics campaign which highlights the joy of personalisation through Jibbitz charms, the #CrocsxZEPETO Personalize Your Classics Design Contest seeks to bring the same experience to users virtually, by inviting users to decorate the Classic Clog with Jibbitz charm sticker designs and taking a virtual photograph at the ZEPETO booth. Fans can participate in the contest by sharing their unique design creations on their ZEPETO and social media feeds from September 8 through September 22. The grand prize winner will have their design added to the official Crocs collection on ZEPETO, as well as a phygital version of the Classic Clog with custom Jibbitz charms based on their winning design. In addition, the winner will also receive a Crush Clog, an Echo Clog, 3 Jibbitz charm packs, as well as 100 ZEMs (in-game currency).
In addition to the design contest, the new #CrocsxZEPETO collection will feature 15 new items comprised of both shoes and apparel, including the iconic Classic Clog, as well as newly launched styles such as the Mega Crush Clog, Echo Clog, Siren Clog and more, allowing users to style both their 3D avatars and themselves.
While on Roblox, players can enjoy the “Crocs World: Tycoon” on September 15, and dive into the heart of a beach-theme park that revolves around the iconic Crocs footwear, including the Classic Crush clog and Platform clog, and the power of imagination. From the moment players set foot on the sandy shores of their personal island, they will be swept into a world of possibilities crafting a unique pair of Classic Clog, Crush Clog, Mega Crush Sandal and more with custom colours, shapes, and Jibbitz charms. Likes can be earned in-game, which can be used to unlock new attractions and customisation options. Crocs World: Tycoon also brings forth an array of quirky and engaging activities – Players can explore the theme park in the Crocs Car, take flight with the Crocs Jetpack or engage in friendly duels with the Crocs Launcher. As the gameplay progresses, players can also unlock limited-edition Crocs items for their Roblox avatars.
“Supporting Crocs on delivering unique and gamer authentic experiences in metaverse platforms have been rewarding on so many levels. Gamers at the core are creative and we hope everyone enjoys the experiences we’re rolling out in Zepeto and Roblox,” Martin Kim, Chief Revenue Officer at Gen.G, said.
Crocs’ expansion into ZEPETO and Roblox follows the brand’s successful launch on both platforms last year, featuring a virtual concert and interactive livestream experience featuring a popular Kpop girl group for its 20th Anniversary. This launch further demonstrates the brand’s commitment to exploring immersive brand experiences through virtual reality and gaming platforms to bring forth new ways of engaging with fans around the world.

Summoners War X AppGallery Meetup 2024: Exclusive Insights with SWC Europe Cup Champions NEF, ISMOO and STARTIIK
Summoners War, a popular mobile role-playing game, has captivated millions with its turn-based monster battles. Boasting over 220 million total downloads across platforms, Summoners War has cultivated a loyal and passionate fanbase.
To celebrate this dedicated community, the Summoners War X AppGallery Meetup 2024 in Hamburg on 30th November invites fans to engage in exciting activities and connect with the community, with top players NEF and ISMOO headlining this sold-out event. We caught up with NEF, ISMOO and STARTIIK, the top three winners of the SWC 2024 Europe Cup, to dive into their strategies, the influence of AppGallery, and the upcoming meetup.
What key strategies helped you win the Europe Cup and advance to the World Finals’ Semi-Finals match?
NEF: A lot of preparation involved strategizing with my friends and anticipating my opponents’ moves. Additionally, having favourable RNG in critical moments played a crucial role in my success.
What was your turning point in Summoners War that influenced you to start competing professionally?
NEF: Throughout my Summoners War journey, I have met so many incredible people who have really helped shape my experience and push me to grow. Watching ISMOO’s energetic performance on the big stage, gave me the motivation to chase my own dreams and got me to where I am today!
How does it feel to be part of the Summoners War X AppGallery Meetup 2024 and what are your thoughts on AppGallery’s Summoners War campaigns and offline events?
NEF: I am thrilled to be a part of meetup! Being involved in this vibrant community has been such a rewarding experience. I appreciate the variety of Summoners War campaigns that AppGallery offers, catering to all kinds of gamers, regardless of budget. Attending Gamescom last year was a phenomenal experience. The energy was electrifying, and it was amazing connecting with fellow gamers who share the same passion!
What key lessons from your past World Finals experiences have contributed to your success in reaching the World Finals’ Semi-Finals again?
ISMOO: Competing in past World Finals has been a crucial step towards my success in the Semi-Finals. It has taught me to stay composed and avoid costly misplays, even when the stakes are high. I have also learned to better analyse and adapt to opponents’ strategies, enabling me to make smarter decisions and perform more consistently under stress.
Reflecting on your 8-year journey, what key moments shaped your path in Summoners War?
ISMOO: One of the highlights was meeting all my in-game friends from Summoners War, including NEF, that I had only interacted with online. It was incredible to finally meet them in person and getting to know each other better!
Another unforgettable moment was competing in SWC World Finals 2022 in Korea. It was my first time traveling to Asia, and playing live on stage was such an exhilarating and surreal experience.
How does it feel to be part of the Summoners War X AppGallery Meetup 2024 and what are your thoughts on AppGallery’s Summoners War campaigns and offline events?
ISMOO: It feels amazing to be part of this meetup. Reconnecting with the community and meeting so many new people has been a blast! Incredibly grateful for the multiple events that AppGallery has hosted and invited me – It is truly an honour and excited for future events!
What key lessons helped you win second-place at the Europe Cup and advance to the World Finals’ Quarter-Finals match?
STARTIIK: I spent a year focusing on mastering drafts and learning which monsters counter certain meta picks. My Europe Cup preparation involved studying my opponents and analysing their playstyles. However, the World Finals demanded a completely different approach. Preparing for LADRILLO-OS was manageable while LEST’s unpredictability made it more challenging.
As a first-time Europe Cup player, what elements of your gameplay surprise opponents, and does their underestimation give you an edge?
STARTIIK: As a first-timer competitor on stage, many opponents underestimated me despite having experienced my strengths in previous matches. The real challenge lies in proving yourself as a worthy competitor who can handle pressure and deliver consistent results. My fast-paced cleaving strategy has always been my focus but the addition of Lora to my roster this year has strengthened my second-turn gameplay, allowing me to explore new strategies.
How has your AppGallery experience been, and how do its Summoners War campaigns and cashback benefits enhance your gameplay?
STARTIIK: My experience with AppGallery has been great! Installing it on my Android device was a breeze, and navigating the app is intuitive and straightforward. The enticing campaigns and cashback deals have been a great bonus, enabling me to grab some excellent discounts on in-game packs.
