The partnership promises to bridge the gap between web2 and web3 players, offering a platform where both can coexist seamlessly.
A Game for Both Worlds: Tokyo Beast’s Appeal
Tokyo Beast has been designed to cater to the diverse needs of web2 and web3 players. For traditional gamers, the game offers the opportunity to battle without the need to own an NFT. Instead, players can participate by using a pooled collection of NFTs owned by others. This removes the barrier to entry that many potential web3 players face, as the complexities of owning, transferring, or trading NFTs often feel overwhelming.
However, for those familiar with the web3 space, Tokyo Beast offers the full experience. Players can strengthen their Beasts by winning battles, with each victory improving their NFT’s stats and increasing its value. The game also includes advanced features like the “gene shuffle” breeding mechanics, where players can create new Beasts, build a collection, and strategize for competitive play.
Tournaments and Global Exposure
Tokyo Beast’s tournament structure promises to attract a massive following. With daily arenas and a weekend Championship, the game offers regular competition that appeals to both casual and serious players. The top 20 players from each week are invited to face off in high-stakes battles, with each fight livestreamed globally. Tokyo Beast also provides in-depth information on party composition, performance, lineage odds, and more, allowing players to make sophisticated predictions about tournament outcomes.
Immutable’s Growing Influence in Web3 Gaming
Immutable continues to solidify its position as a leader in web3 gaming. With its non-custodial wallet, Immutable Passport, and the Immutable Global Orderbook, developers now have the tools to create great games while ensuring seamless onboarding for new players. Immutable’s partnerships with major industry players, such as Ubisoft and MARBLEX, have further strengthened its role in shaping the future of gaming.
Robbie Ferguson, co-founder of Immutable, stated,
“The project has a AAA budget that really shows itself in the visuals and thoughtful game design. We believe the Tokyo Beast Championship tournaments have the potential to onboard millions of users.”
With such strong backing and innovative game mechanics, Tokyo Beast is poised to become a major player in both the web3 and traditional gaming markets.
