"Survive" for an Opportunity to Win Exclusive Experiential and NFT Prizes

SAW Games Passes provide access to games and the opportunity to win prizes tied to the iconic horror movie franchise  

NEW YORK and LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Autograph, the web3 brand co-founded by Tom Brady, today announced a new collaboration with Internet Game to launch the next phase of its partnership with global content leader Lionsgate (NYSE: LGF.A, LGF.B). Just in time for Halloween, the companies will release a new web3 experience tied to Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures' iconic horror film franchise SAW. In the new experience, a special third season of Internet Game, players will have the opportunity to participate in three SAW-themed games across three days to win top prizes.

To play, gamers and fans must purchase a SAW Games Pass on any of the following three marketplaces: GameStop NFT, Magic Eden, and Internet Game. Passes can be purchased during the public sale on October 24 at 12 PM ET. An early window sale will begin on October 21 on GameStop NFT, where SAW Games Passes will be available for purchase. The SAW Games Pass will grant users access to the first of three SAW-themed mini-games – Acid Bath, Blood Bucket, and Incinerator – on the Internet Game platform. The games will take place over three separate days: Monday, 10/31; Wednesday, 11/2; and Friday, 11/4. The metadata of the Games Passes will dynamically update to reflect each player's performance for each mini-game.

In the spirit of SAW, players who "survive" all three mini-games with the most amount of in-game health have the opportunity to win top prizes, including a combination of bespoke SAW NFTs with exciting experiences and blue chip NFTs. Top prizes include an on-set tour of the next SAW film, a Mutant Ape NFT, a winner having their name appear in the next SAW film, a trip to the new SAW: The Experience in London, a Doodles NFT, and more.

Produced and shepherded from its inception by Mark Burg and Oren Koules, the SAW franchise has grossed more than $1 billion at the global box office and is one of the longest-running horror franchises in history. Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures will release the next SAW installment theatrically on October 27, 2023.
