This game is targeted at crypto-curious gamers who do not mind blockchain integration. Essentially, Taunt Battleworld will act as a bridge between traditional video games and the new generation of blockchain gaming.
At its core, Taunt Battleworld will be a 3D fighting game with celebrity appearances from the likes of Floyd Mayweather and Cris Cyborg. On top of this, the game will use the transparency of the blockchain to validate the unique ownership of in-game content, such as outfits or characters.
The company is launching its first Taunt Battleworld NFT collection on March 5th, 2022. This collection is named 'Blood Money,' and will contain 2,500 NFTs, each of which is tied to a unique fighter in the game.
