    Play-to-earn games,” also known as “P2E games,” are online games that allow players to earn rewards with real-world value by completing tasks, battling other players, and advancing through various levels. These rewards may come in the form of in-game assets such as cryptocurrency tokens, virtual land, or non-fungible tokens (NFTs) such as skins, weapons, and other items. These games are also sometimes referred to as “blockchain games,” “crypto games,” “NFT Games” or “Web 3.0 games.”

    Check out our list of game developers or play-to-earn games list.

    In blockchain games, players have complete ownership and control over the digital assets they earn or acquire through gameplay. In traditional games, even if players pay real money for digital assets, they can lose access to them if the game’s server is shut down. With blockchain games, this is not an issue because players have true ownership of their assets, which are stored on a decentralized network and cannot be taken away. This means that players can retain their assets even if the game they acquired them in is no longer active.

    The first known game to use blockchain technologies was CryptoKitties, launched by Axiom Zen in November 2017 for personal computers. Axie Infinity was the first iteration of the ‘Play to Earn‘ (P2E) gaming model, which offered players the chance to earn cryptocurrencies by merely playing a game.

    On this game site you will find many game lists of P2E Games, PlayToEarn Games and more. We have created these games lists based on popularity. These games have the use of cryptocurrencies.

  • What Are NFT Rewards? How to Earn Them, the Benefits of Using Them, and More!

    What Are NFT Rewards? How to Earn Them, the Benefits of Using Them, and More!

    In this article, we’ll explain what NFTs are, how to earn them, the benefits of using them, and more! NFTs are digital collectibles that can be used to unlock rewards inside games or apps. They’re similar to virtual currency, but they have their own unique benefits. So, let’s dig a bit deeper into NFTs and try to understand them with a simple explanation.

    What are NFTs?

    NFTs is an abbreviation for “non-fungible tokens.” Here, the word “fungible” holds the key. Fungible means replaceable, so nonfungible means non-replaceable. So anything that is not replaceable in digital form is an NFT. Let’s understand what the concept behind replaceable and non-replaceable items is in the real world.

    Let’s say that in the real world, we have different commodities that we use and borrow from one another. If someone lends you a dollar, you do not necessarily return the same dollar note. You can return a dollar in any form with any serial number behind it. The same goes with something like gold, wheat, or any other commodity that is replaceable with another of its kind.

    On the contrary, we have non-replaceable assets as well, like the painting of the Mona Lisa. Take, for example, if the owner of the Mona Lisa art painting lends someone the real painting for the time being. He or she will not settle for any other Mona Lisa painting in return because it is unique and irreplaceable.

    So, NFTs are digital art forms that are supported and powered by blockchain ledgers and traded in cryptocurrencies. The token part of NFTs is where the digital art form becomes a token via a contract on the blockchain. So, no two NFTs will ever be identical; each NFT has its own unique ID ingrained in the blockchain, which is verifiable. Upon buying an NFT, the purchaser or owner receives a code that allows the change of ownership as well as validation and verification.

    Some Examples of NFTs

    Let’s have a look at some examples of NFTs that took the internet by storm.

    Twitter is a world-renowned social media platform. Have you ever wondered who sent the first tweet in history? And what was it? Jack Dorsey was the co-founder of Twitter, and his tweet is the first ever. Jack Dorsey sold the ownership rights to this tweet for almost $3 million. The first-ever tweet was turned into an NFT, and the ownership details and rights are available on the blockchain ledger.

    Similarly, we have other examples of valuable NFTs like Nyan Cat, a JPEG, and many other in-game digital assets. These NFTs sold for a lot of money.

    How do you earn NFTs?

    NFTs are available in many forms nowadays. You can buy them directly from NFT marketplaces like OpenSea and several others. Moreover, they come in many shapes and forms, like in-game items in the shape of costumes, cosmetics, avatars, weapons, skins, etc. NFTs also come in digital certificates, music, video moments, etc.

    You can also create your own NFT art and have it registered as yours on the blockchain. You can then sell your NFT on marketplaces, plus the royalty stays with you.

    As for earning NFT rewards, several hundreds of NFT blockchain games are available in the market to play. You can earn NFT by completing quests, winning battles and tournaments, opening mystery boxes, getting early access passes, and more. You can also stake NFTs in games that allow staking. Some of the platforms that allow NFT staking are Splinterlands, Only1, and NFTX. Moreover, there are some games that allow yield farming, where you can harvest and win NFTs or tokens.

    Why Should I care About NFTs?

    NFTs are a fun way to earn digital assets that have real value attached to them. The Web3 domain is still in its infancy and will mature with every passing year. So, getting into NFTs early on isn’t a bad idea. Furthermore, many traditional gaming companies are entering Web-based NFT blockchain gaming with a play-and-earn business model. This model will allow gamers to own their in-game NFTs and later sell them in an open marketplace.

    Additionally, NFTs bring added benefits like proof of ownership, authenticity on the blockchain, economic benefits, vertical growth mobility, and bragging rights.

    How Does Play To Earn Games Work?

    Let’s understand the basic mechanics of play-to-earn games and how a gamer can make it a side hustle. One of the most significant differences between traditional games and Web3-based gaming is decentralization. Play-to-earn games are foundationally decentralized in nature. This means that the developers collaborate with the gaming community and adhere to their feedback. Play-to-earn games have discord channels and a player governance system where players share their concerns and take part in decision-making.

    The player’s participation in the game is a continuous feature of play-to-earn games. Every update of the game considers the community’s feedback, which makes it a regular feature. Moreover, giving players ownership over a part of the game also shows how player-centric this model is.

    That is decentralization, but how does it work? Will it cost you something upfront?

    Some of the play-to-earn games are absolutely free to play, and you won’t need any investment. P2E games like The SandboxPoly WorldPortal Fantasy, and many others require no investment, and you can play them for free.

    On the contrary, some P2E games, like the popular P2E game Axie Infinity, require a player to buy NFTs to begin playing. In Axie Infinity’s case, you will need to buy a set of Axies and then start playing the game.

    The idea is simple: the game will reward you with cryptocurrencies or tokens and NFTs that hold real-world value. You can sell these digital assets in an open marketplace and get real cash in return. So, basically, P2E game developers use mainly two types of approaches in a play-to-earn game.

    Native Cryptocurrency or Token

    In this case, developers start on a blockchain like Ethereum, design one or more tokens, and execute the deal in smart contracts. The native tokens have a real-world value attached to them, but the value fluctuates depending on the market. An example of a native cryptocurrency is AXS and SLP, two native tokens of Axie Infinity.

    Existing Cryptocurrencies

    The other method involves developers rewarding players with existing cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc. The upside of using existing cryptocurrencies is that they are well-established and have solid goodwill attached to them. But the downside is that the game requires a lot of grinding, and it takes a lot of time to accumulate one.

    All you need to do is get hold of a digital wallet like MetaMask and connect it with your P2E game, and voila! Start playing and earning.

    What can I do with Play to Earn Games? (And why should I?)

    Well, who doesn’t like to do a bit of side hustle by doing something that they already love? Playing video games is a healthy pastime that allows you to unwind, have fun, and now earn money for lunch. Moreover, there are AAA play-to-earn games already in development, and the fun part will explode in upcoming blockchain games. These games will allow you to own whatever is yours in the game with no fear of being wiped out.

    • You will have ownership and autonomy over in-game items.
    • You will have proof of record over NFTs on blockchain ledgers.
    • You will earn while you play your favorite game by selling NFTs and other in-game assets on a marketplace.
    • You will participate in decentralized governance and have the opportunity to provide feedback to the developers.
    • You will have the opportunity to grab NFTs and NFT collections that are super rare.

    Web3 games or play-to-earn games are still in their infancy. Several big names have already entered the P2E gaming space, and many others are weighing in on the opportunity. Stay tuned for more information on play to earn games and blockchain gaming news

  • Solana Suffers from FTX Fallout, Sony Files Patent Involving NFTs, and More

    Solana Suffers from FTX Fallout, Sony Files Patent Involving NFTs, and More

    In this newsletter, I will cover the impact of FTX fallout on blockchain games. Moreover, we will also cover significant partnerships in the Web3 gaming domain, how Avalanche Gamefi projects are performing, what Sony’s newest patent says about its Web3 direction, and how one of the biggest retailers in the gaming world embraces NFTs. Lastly, how is Gamestop working with Immutable X?

    So let’s start, and I hope you do enjoy reading it and that I shed some light on last week’s affairs.

    • FTX collapse and fallout The Solana Blockchain is imploding.
    • Cryptomon forms an alliance with Unstoppable Domains
    • Avalanche and its solid run in gamefi space
    • Sony files a patent for digital asset tracking in video games.
    • Gamestop NFT marketplace
    • Harmony collaborates with Game Space

    FTX’s collapse and its fallout on Solana

    Blockchain and play-to-earn games on the Solana blockchain are the newest victims of the FTX fallout. Solana’s token, as well as tokens from games like Star Atlas and Aurory, all perished. Aurory’s in-game token has suffered more than 70% damage since the start of the week. As for Star Atlas, its token fell more than 36%. When compared to SOL tokens, SOL suffered a loss of 56%. Some of the other names on the Solana blockchain, like Mini Royale Nations and Panzerdogs, have yet to release tokens.

    Earlier, FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried pledged $100 million in gaming projects on the Solana blockchain. However, FTX suffered an implosion in the first week of November as the FTX token price declined. Consequently, it was unearthed that FTX had $9 billion in liabilities and only $900 million in liquid assets.

    Apart from the Solana debacle, blockchain games are largely showing a decrease in trading volumes in the last seven days. This decrease includes major games like DeFi Kingdoms, The Sandbox, and Axie Infinity.

    New Partnerships in Web3 Space

    In other news, NFT-powered Metaverse games developer Cyrptomon enters into a partnership with Unstoppable Domains, a Web3 domain provider. This partnership will provide Cryptomon NFT holders with a verification badge. These badges will show up on their Unstoppable Domain profiles. Moreover, the partnership will also secure the user’s Web3 identity along with providing them with unique NFT domains in the future with the suffixes “.kryptomon” and “.kmon.”

    In another partnership, Harmony joins hands with Game Space, which will pave the way for traditional Web-2 companies to transition to Web-3. The strategic partnership will considerably reduce the time and cost of on-chain game development. Harmony is a proof-of-stake blockchain company, while Game Space is a one-stop gamefi platform.

    Avalanche’s Stable Run in Gamefi Space 

    The gamefi segment is one Web3 domain that is growing at breakneck speed, and Avalanche is riding the wave. Earlier this week, Avalanche shared a progress report showing growth volume on its gamefi projects. The leading project is Province, with a super growth rate of more than 1481%. The least growth volume also shows a formidable increase of 7.77%. The key takeaway here is that the gamefi segment is enjoying a soaring growth rate. As for its token, AVAX, it experienced a decrease after showing signs of recovery earlier this week. The recovery gains vanished due to the continuous bearish trend during the weekend. So, the AVAX token is still in its lower range at $12.90.

    Sony Applies for a Patent to Track In-Game Assets 

    Big players continue to show interest in the Web3 domain, with Sony getting into the news once again after the previous week. This time, Sony files for a patent that will allow gamers to own unique digital assets and in-game collectibles. The patent was filed in 2021 for a system that tracks digital assets powered by blockchain technology. The patent went public last week. Sony plans to keep a record using blockchain ledgers of digital media assets, gameplay, and video clips of memorable moments with a unique token. The patent filing shows that the multinational technology conglomerate is interested in the Web3 domain, especially NFTs in blockchain games.

    Gamestop NFT Marketplace

    Another big name in traditional gaming enters Web3 with the official launch of its NFT marketplace. GameStop, the largest video game retailer in the world, joined forces with Immutable X to launch its NFT marketplace on the Immutable blockchain platform. It will use a Layer 2 blockchain solution that does 100% gas-free and carbon-neutral minting. Both Gamestop and Immutable X have also launched a $100 million grant for creators of Web3 games. The partnership will integrate the blockchain games that are on Immutable X into the Gamestop NFT marketplace for easier management.

    How Trailblazer Games Is Leading The Way

    Today’s gaming news will focus on Trailblazer Games, one of the leading P2E and blockchain game developers, and its upcoming multi-chapter epic, powered by Solana blockchain, NFT game Eternal Dragons. 

    It is often that we forget in bewilderment the person, the team, and the efforts behind the finished product that we enjoy. Today, we turn the spotlight on one such team that is playing a huge role in Web3 gaming. Trailblazer Games is a solid player in the Web3 game industry that holds a lot of promise. The Singapore-based game studio has a team that has plenty of experience crafting AAA games. The studio has recently raised $8.2 million for its fantasy blockchain game series, dubbed Eternal Dragons. Their mantra shows their intent: belong, play, and prosper.

    Blazing Guns with an Able Team

    The studio plans to revolutionize the entertainment industry by leveraging Web3 principles in video games. The founders of Trailblazer Games are serial entrepreneurs with valuable experiences under their belt. Its founders include Bertrand Lamarque, Andreas Risberg, and Alex Arias. They have worked with giants of the industry like EA, King, and Microsoft. Moreover, there is more than 15 years of experience between the founders, where they have added value to two massively popular gaming franchises: Candy Crush Saga and The Sims.

    What’s different About Trailblazer Games?

    Besides having a top-tier team, the studio aims to bridge the gap between fun and Web3 principles, which the majority of p2e games lack so far. So, the focus is on the gamers, with an eye toward adding meaning, fun, and value for them. 

    Another important challenge is the acquisition and retention of players in blockchain games. The studio plans to innovate a strategy focusing on user acquisition, engagement, and retention. The plan is to achieve it by leveraging data, blockchain, and AI to make it user-friendly for both crypto and non-crypto gamers. 

    Additionally, the studio will also incorporate a play and own mechanism by introducing NFTs, through which players will own part of the game. 

    Moreover, the studio focuses on iteration execution involving fast-paced learning and its application. The team will achieve it by launching spelled-out experiences and keeping an eye on player feedback.

    Earlier in November, the studio announced the release of the Alpha version of Eternal Dragons. Moreover, a playable Alpha demo was also showcased at Libson Breakpoint. The alpha of the game will reach the NFT holders by the end of Q4 of 2022. Previously, Trailblazer Games had a successful run with the sale of the Eternal Dragons Genesis collection, where 10,000 NFTs were released. The NFT sale performed surprisingly well and sold out in record time, despite the market’s severe bearish trend. 

    Eternal Dragons Alpha

    According to the roadmap, the first game will enter beta testing next year, after which it will see a global release. Moreover, Games 2 and 3 will enter the development phase. So, in the coming years, the utility of the Dragon NFTs will increase manifold as they will work across the entire Eternal Dragon ecosystem.

  • Crypto Games for Beginners: 4 Things to Keep In Mind

    Crypto Games for Beginners: 4 Things to Keep In Mind

    Today we talk about Crypto Games. For most people, gaming served as a pastime after a long and stressful day at school or work. It was nothing more than just a passive hobby, and everyone expected nothing more than happiness and satisfaction after completing a difficult task.

    But as technology advances over the years, so is the gaming industry. The rise of the blockchain paved the way for crypto NFT games or play-to-earn games, where players can generate income from crypto or non-fungible tokens (NFTs) by only using their smartphones or PCs. So, instead of players shedding cash to purchase a game, the developers create opportunities for gamers to make money.

    While this concept is appealing, understanding how it works can still be challenging for many beginners. So, to help you, this article will discuss four things you need to keep in mind about crypto gaming.

    What are Crypto Games?

    Before diving deep into the concepts and terms, let us first understand what crypto games mean. Crypto games, considered the next generation of gaming, let users earn cryptocurrency by engaging in various tasks. For instance, some games give players in-game currency that they can use to buy characters and items that can be sold in marketplaces or subsequently swapped for more common cryptocurrencies.

    Thanks to this concept, the gaming community now has a new option to be compensated for the time they spend playing games. The play-to-earn model has gained much traction in recent months, and more and more players are now joining online crypto gaming groups.

    Currently, players can choose from various game genres in the blockchain gaming sector, including pay-to-play games, which demand an initial investment from players to unlock a specific character or, at the very least, an item. On the other hand, mining games pay out coins to players for producing specific resources or finishing particular tasks. Of course, there are also free-to-play games that you can start playing immediately and earn cryptocurrency.

    4 Things You Need To Know About Crypto Gaming

    Store extra funds in the form of crypto

    Most crypto games are built on the Ethereum blockchain. So, to play a game, you must have funds to purchase Ether. Also, whenever you use the Ethereum blockchain, you must pay a GAS transaction fee. This fee is something crypto gamers will use in every action they do in the game. Your browser wallet will ask you to sign a transaction before you proceed and display the cost.

    But thanks to sidechains on decentralized games, players don’t need to pay fees each time they perform and complete an action unless otherwise stated.

    Choose a cryptocurrency exchange platform

    You’ll need to use a cryptocurrency exchange site to convert your money into Ether, and there are plenty to choose from. Be sure to complete this phase and pick the option that best suits your needs, such as your country’s currency or the payment method you choose. Before diving into it, research everything you need about exchange platforms.

    Use a digital wallet

    Using a digital wallet is the best way to ensure that your crypto is safe. Unlike Paypal or Apple Wallet, a digital wallet for cryptocurrencies saves keys rather than money. Many wallet options enable you to keep keys on your PC, in the cloud, on your mobile device, or even offline using a hardware device, similar to exchanges. Select the option once more based on your unique requirements.

    Enjin Wallet is essential for crypto games as it lets users view items in their wallets. Think of it as an inventory for various games where you can store all your earnings and items collected.

    Select a crypto game that interests you

    Finding a game that fits your interests and budget is the next step after deciding to try crypto games. Finding the best one for you requires investigation, as over 400 active games are currently available online.

    The data tracking websites DappRadar and CoinMarketCap are critical places to keep an eye out for new crypto game alternatives. CoinMarketCap provides information into a game’s token price movements, allowing you to decide when is the best moment to participate in a game, while DappRadar offers insight into the GameFi marketplace based on users and volume.

    Most games are in their alpha or beta stages, as the industry is still extremely young. Be prepared for a jerky gameplay experience, and be ready to see glitches. On the other hand, you’ll join the community that aids creators in discovering what players find most engaging and desirable. That in and of itself is a thrilling experience.

    Bottom Line

    Crypto games combine the excitement of video games with the chance to get paid for your time with actual money. However, no “average” earnings exist, and your returns may vary as with any financial product.

    Play-to-earn cryptocurrency games can be profitable, but they frequently need a one-time financial input and ongoing time expenditures to understand the game and increase your investment. You can have fun with GameFi and receive worthwhile cryptocurrency rewards for your time by completing your research and getting ready to go long.

    Also, remember that every player has a unique playing experience, and we all have various priorities. Crypto games are not for everyone, just like any other genre. But part of the joy is experimenting, fiddling, and widening your gaming horizons.

  • Pulsar: A Web 3.0 MMO Real Time Strategy Play To Own Game

    Pulsar: A Web 3.0 MMO Real Time Strategy Play To Own Game

    In today’s gaming news, we introduce an upcoming, promising free-to-play sci-fi MMO Real Time Strategy blockchain game, Pulsar. This upcoming “play to own NFT game” will entertain hundreds and thousands of players around the world, where players will mine, build, and conquer. It is arguably the first Web3 RTS game with a lot to offer in terms of entertainment, graphics, gameplay, and earning opportunities. So, gamers, rally around and get ready to welcome the Starcraft of Web3 blockchain gaming, Pulsar.

    The game offers spectacular gameplay with futuristic art concepts. The game’s biomes each have their own distinct characteristics and breathtaking immersive environments. Moreover, the game gives off AAA vibes and is powered by the Unreal Engine and Avalanche Subnet. It offers some of the crispiest, most crystal clear, vibrant, and cleanest graphics that a blockchain game has yet to offer. The only other blockchain game next to Pulsar that promises supergraphics in the sci-fi genre is Ascenders.

    The Lore

    With billions of stars and galaxies in deep space, we are surely not alone. There must be civilizations or empires out there that are more advanced in technology, intelligence, and resources. It all began when Earth satellites in deep space received signals — a sound wave with a frequency that had never been heard before. The frequency was named Beacon 0, and the source was Pulsar. 

    In search of the origin, the believers went from planet to planet, established colonies, and extracted resources to continue penetrating into deeper space. Now, the believers have reached the last planet just before the Pulsar System, and in between are millions of light years of distance. So, the explorers decided to populate W12R as it is the last planetary outpost before the start of the Pulsar System. This makes the W12R an important outpost, and the battle to gain control over it has just started.

    Pulsar is Free-to-Play

    The team behind Pulsar is considerate towards players as well as a player-driven economy. The developers have made this game free to play, requiring no initial investment to begin playing. Moreover, the game also lets you play the game even without connecting your digital wallets. You don’t need to figure out wallet configuration, mint NFTs, or any other geeky crypto knowledge to excel in this game. Just download the game and start playing it. Pulsar welcomes Web2 and Web3 gamers alike.

    Pulsar Game Modes

    The game has three game modes as of yet:

    • PvE: Single and Co-op (25th December 2022)
    • PvE: Story Mode in the first quarter of 2023. 
    • PvP: No official date yet

    The game will let players choose different occupations or specializations.

    • Miners will harvest raw resources on the land.
    • The builder will work in the building and craft items.
    • Fighters will ensure the defense of lands and resources.

    Play-to-Own Mechanism in Pulsar

    Pulsar offers players complete ownership of every in-game item they possess. Players will own everything from units to buildings, land and crafts, NFTs, and resources.

    NFTs are upgradeable and will help players in combat battles and production capabilities. This will also increase the value of the NFTs in the marketplace.

    Land in Pulsar

    Land mining is also available, which will monetize the player’s assets. The land will also let players mine NFTs and even lend their land to other players. So, what about land?

    Pulsar play to own blockchain NFT game
    Pulsar Land

    There are four types of lands, or biomes, in the game, and each biome has unique attributes attached to it. Each land has a minimum or maximum of $PLSR in it, depending on the size of the land. Moreover, a land’s size also determines the number of motherships and units that it can host. The land also has resources in it ranging from common to uncommon to rare. These resources will be at the disposal of all players; however, the land owner will charge a tax from players that extract resources.

    The Building Refinery

    The NFTs from the land will need to head to the refinery building, where Genesis Pulsar Refinery will convert raw Pulsar to $PLSR tokens. Resource Refinery, on the other hand, will convert raw resources into on-chain resource tokens. 

    Pulsar Tokenomics

    $PLSR is the primary in-game currency that the players can also mine. The process involves getting raw Pulsars from the land and getting them refined into $PLSR. 

    $GAS is another on-chain token that will help players craft NFTs and also be used in trade.

    Our Take On Pulsar

    The game holds a lot of potential and shows promise, especially on the fun and graphics sides, which are much more appealing. The in-game economy is the real challenge that every Web3 game faces, especially during the crypto winter. However, Pulsar might just be the game that eventually comes up with an innovation where the in-game economy thrives into a robust ecosystem.

  • Play and Own Gaming Model, the New Domain in Web 3.0?

    Play and Own Gaming Model, the New Domain in Web 3.0?

    The blockchain gaming industry is in a nascent stage and still undergoing the evolutionary process. We all are well aware of what this industry promises and how it took off initially.

    The promise of earning real money via playing your favorite game using blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. Although the idea saw a massive success initially especially the play to earn game Axie Infinity, its ecosystem was and still is under severe criticism and harsh questioning.

    The crashing of Terra/Luna, and the shutting down of Three Arrows Capital, Celsius, and other top companies started a severe crypto winter.

    Play and Own
    Play and Own

    Moreover, play to earn games dwindling fan support, rug pulls, successful hacking attempts, tokens collapsing and more added to the uncertainty and questions about the longevity of the P2E gaming model ecosystem.

    Several major developers also weren’t supporting the idea of play to earn right from the start as it takes away the basic purpose of gaming, which is fun. Play to earn gaming model has at its core the motivation for gamers to earn.

    So, the basic purpose of gaming is lost somewhere between tokenomicsfinancial rewards, and earning real money.

    NFT gaming also has challenges attached to it. Take for example the NFT game F1 Delta Time. It came onto the blockchain gaming stage as one of the most promising NFT games but it didn’t turn out as one. The game ran into licensing problems with the companies it went into an agreement with earlier. The NFT cars in the game lost its utility within minutes and gamers lost hundreds and thousands of dollars. The game abruptly shut down in April this year.

    There is strong speculation that developers are making a transition from P2E games to a newer business model, a model that makes more sense. The game developers are shifting towards play to own (P2O) or free to own (F2O) model rather than play to earn.

    The idea is simple yet elegant. Back in the (g)olden days’ video games went open sourcing with the gaming community experimenting and building in-game assets, maps, characters, environment, etc.

    For example, Counter-Strike, the astronomically popular FPS, had several mods and maps that were made by the players themselves. Some of the maps went viral and were used all around the world. However, the creator didn’t get any monetary benefit from it. The same goes with DOTA 2 which began as a mod of Warcraft 3.

    This mod gave birth to a whole new gaming genre of real-time strategy gameplay. This is where blockchain technology will provide a solution for gamers and creators alike.

    This is where the blockchain game Shrapnel comes in. Shrapnel is a game with a captivating storyline, exciting gameplay, true ownership of in-game rewards and assets, and most importantly decentralized. The game developers of the game welcome input from the community.

    So, the year 2023 will potentially kick-start this transition from p2e games to play and own, free to own games. At W3 Play, we are ready for this shift, as our current domains are focusing on play to earn, our domain portfolio is the largest in the games space. Whether it will be Play2Own, PlayToOwn, P2O (play to own) or F2O (free to own), we are sure we can fasciliate gamers with a large overview of quality games and features that can enable our gamer community to dive in deep. And why not, if it is fun?

    That is what Joseph Derflinger is saying. Play and own games guarantee fun, entertaining gameplay, value for grinding, and NFT ownership. The intent is entirely different when compared to play to earn. Gamers will come in to enjoy and have fun whilst owning their stuff. Read what Joseph has to say about Play And Own

    Immutable X and Mantisco enter into a partnership that promises a massive shift in play to earn gaming.

    Previously, Immutable X collaborated with solid Web3 projects that already had standings. However, this time the technological powerhouse will support Mantisco who launched a battle royale game in 2020.

    The game is called Hunter’s Arena where players roam and battle in a fantasy open world. The game lets players take complete control of their avatars and allows players to upgrade and level up character abilities and other in-game items.
