The GameFi industry is showing a rapid revival during the current bull run for cryptocurrencies. Despite their slow performance in the previous two years, GameFi projects are now more active with product launches and partnerships.
StepN and Adidas are partnering for a 1,000 Genesis Edition NFT drop on Solana, with each NFT sneaker valued at $2,200. In addition, StepN enables users to earn rewards by carrying out activities like walking, jogging, or even just running.
Orduz Games recently launched its web3 handheld gaming device modeled after the BitBoy One. The BitBoy One is a restyled GameBoy that performs the same function as the classic GameBoy, with the additional feature of allowing people to earn Bitcoins while playing retro games. The device simultaneously features a multiplayer mode and VR application.
Numerous GameFi projects are leading to standard game world operations. The ARPG Seraph: In the Darkness has just secured an important place in-store through genuine game NFT sales. Two characters could be discussing the upcoming release of the game in the last week of the month, which is set in a dark medieval setting where players can create their own characters, fight monsters, and pick up loot.
According to recent DappRadar stats, active wallets for the GameFi sector have taken an incredible leap, hitting 2.54 million, more than double the previous yearly figure. The founders, Yat Siu and Johnson Yeh, expect “tens of millions” of Web3 gamers this year. While some projects in the GameFi category have been criticized for prioritizing finance over games, a few of them have collapsed as a result.
