Magmic Launches MLB Idle Tycoon Web3 Game

Magmic unveiled plans for a new Web3 gaming experience at the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco.

At the Game Developers Conference in San Francisco, the gaming business Magmic, which is responsible for the games “UFC Fight Card Rummy” and “Idle Pet Paradise,” announced a new Web3 gaming experience that is based on the Major League Baseball (MLB) license.

Mobile devices and browsers are the target audience for this new experience. The new game, the name of which has not yet been disclosed, will be an “idle tycoon” game in which players will construct their very own baseball stadium experience without any outside influence.

The MLB and the MLB Players Association. Even though gameplay information is still under wraps, Magmic CEO Mo Agha did explain that users could construct and extend their very own Major League Baseball ballpark, as well as trade players.

Established in 2002, Magmic is a firm renowned for its creation of the Texas Hold ‘Em King franchise, among other titles, which played a significant role in elevating the company to prominence as a top producer of Blackberry games.

This was accomplished by the company’s pioneering work in mobile gaming. In the decades that have passed, players have downloaded the company’s games more than 250 million times, and Magmic currently boasts a player base in the millions.

The company Magmic has developed games based on several notable intellectual properties. These games encompass a ChatGPT-powered mobile version of Hasbro’s Scattergories and an iOS real-money rummy game featuring the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) license.

Web3 and Web2 gaming will be supported by the new games that MLB has licensed. Reportedly, users will have the ability to trade digital assets such as ballplayers with one another.

Reports suggest that the game will function as a standard Web2 experience on mobile devices and browsers, excluding commercialized and asset-based Web3 elements. Agha shared the following commentary in a press release:

“The game is intended to be fun and easy-to-play and will allow […] sports fans and mobile gamers a chance to utilize a player-to-player marketplace and in-gameplay player ownership that leverages Web3 technology. It is Magmic’s vision and commitment to create an enjoyable gaming experience while also allowing true in-game asset ownership that truly sets it apart in the new world of Web3 gaming.”
