Mythical Games and Pudgy Penguins have teamed up to develop a Web3-enabled mobile game based on the Pudgy Penguins NFTs.
Mythical Games, a gaming technology studio, and Pudgy Penguins, a brand development company known for its Pudgy Penguins NFTs, have announced a partnership to create a mobile video game that is Web3 enabled.
The cryptocurrency conference Consensus 2024, currently taking place in Austin, Texas, initially announced the future game’s details. Similar to Mythical Games’ NFL Rivals, the next mobile game will provide players with an accessible, high-quality, and engaging gaming experience based on the Pudgy Penguins’ lore.
In addition to launching in 2025 on the Mythical platform, the game will be playable on the Mythos Chain (MYTH), the entertainment and gaming blockchain developed by Mythical Games.
I was thrilled to collaborate with Mythical Games on the development of Pudgy Penguins, an AAA game built on blockchain and designed with mobile devices in mind. Luca Netz, CEO of Pudgy Penguins, stated in a written statement that the venture is well-positioned for success thanks to our growth plan, which has reached millions, and Mythical Games’ expertise and track record in the game industry. “As development ramps up, we are excited to show the Pudgy Penguins community what’s in store and solicit their feedback,” she added.
In the time leading up to the game’s release, players who have purchased Pudgy Penguins NFTs will have access to exclusive content, sneak peeks at gameplay footage, and opportunities to have their voices heard in important decisions.
The game aims to expand Pudgy Penguins’ brand and philosophy, catering to both the Pudgy Penguins community and the wider gaming public.
Pudgy Penguins Beat Boring Ape Yacht Club on Floor Price After Exploring Metaverse
In July 2021, a group of college students started the Pudgy Penguins as an Ethereum-based collection of 8,888 NFTs. In April 2022, Luca Netz bought them for $2.5 million. Since then, Pudgy Penguins have grown a strong fan base and gained a lot of attention.
After Pudgy Penguins announced its plan to enter the metaverse earlier this year, the project’s floor price was higher than Bored Ape Yacht Club for a short time in February.
By the end of the year, the group hopes to have debuted Pudgy World Alpha on the zkSync Era blockchain. Pudgy Penguins’ recent announcement of selling over a million plush toys through various shops underscores the high demand for its beloved intellectual property.
