Immutable zkEVM is becoming a major Web3 gaming hub and the arrival of these premiere games reinforces this position.
The gaming industry is undergoing an unprecedented transformation with the adoption of blockchain technology. In this context, three new Premier Web3 games have recently announced their commitment to use Immutable’s zkEVM network.
These games are intended to offer an enhanced gaming experience, secure and scalable gameplay, and true ownership of game assets. All three new games have been developed using Immutable due to its high scalability, privacy, and the fact that it facilitates the implementation of Web3 during the creative process of such games.
Commenting on the announcement, Andrew Sorokovsky, Immutable’s vice president of global business development, said:
It’s inspiring to see more studios adopting Immutable to truly elevate their gameplay. This transformative technology offers game developers enterprise-grade security, massive network effects, lower development costs, and seamless interoperability with the Ethereum ecosystem, putting web3 games on par with their web2 counterparts.
Three new top-tier games
Joining the ranks of Immutable zkEVM GensoKishi Online, developed by Metap Inc. GensoKishi Online, is the native metaverse reincarnation of Elemental Knights Online, a highly acclaimed game that received the 2012 Game of the Year (Gold) award in Taiwan and garnered a total of 8 million downloads worldwide.
By leveraging blockchain technology, the developers of GensoKishi Online aim to establish a new economic system in their fantasy world that will provide new spaces, experiences, entertainment, and full ownership made possible by decentralization.
Recently, GensoKishi launched a new collaboration with SYMBIOGENESIS, an NFT art project created by Square Enix, a major Japanese game developer and publisher known for legendary series such as Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Star Ocean, and Dragon Quest.
Cursed Stone is a 3D open-world Web3 MMORPG featuring PvE, PvP, and Siege modes that offer players dynamic NFTs that they can upgrade and equip on their characters. Since community members will fully own these assets, players will be able to freely trade them, including their full characters with all levels and items, all in one transaction.
Immutable zkEVM, innovation at all levels
The game’s innovative role system will ensure that each class has its own set of roles that players can use to further specialize, making each NFT unique and desirable. The developers also want to explore the possibilities of combining NFC and NFT technologies to revolutionize the way users interact with the digital world.
Finally, inspired by naval battles and timeless classics like The Lord of the Rings and A Song of Ice and Fire, Sailwars is an exciting new web3 NFT game that will feature an immersive virtual world where adventurers can embark on a dynamic journey through various civilizations.
Sailwars combines blockchain technology with innovative gameplay, including various battle modes such as PvE, PvP, and Guild versus Guild. The game invites players to engage in strategic warfare, sail through uncharted territories, reveal hidden secrets, and embark on exciting treasure hunts alongside a vibrant community of like-minded explorers.
As a Web3 game, Sailwars allows players to convert their in-game assets, such as heroes, ships, and weapons, into NFTs that can be freely traded on the open market. As players progress and improve their skills, they can also earn reward tokens for participating in battles.
To date, Sailwars has already received support from a total of 27 top-tier partners including Disney China, Alibaba Cloud, Wanxiang Blockchain and Immutable, and has established connections with many brands to provide more business options for global players.
Great players in the gaming sector
By leveraging Immutable zkEVM, developers can access all the tools they need to start enhancing their games through digital asset ownership. This includes full EVM support and the full Immutable tool suite, including APIs, SDKs, and solutions like Passport, Checkout, and Orderbook.
Several game studios have already committed to building their web3 titles on Immutable zkEVM. These include Shardbound, SimWin Sports, Space Nation, S369, Moongaming, Sandbox, Eyeball Games, Magmabyte, and others.
