Web3 Multiplayer Arena Games

Wildcard Alliance is Developing Wildcard as a Landmark in Web3 Gaming

— March 28, 2023 — Tech
'Wildcard Alliance' is a division of 'Playful Studios,' which is developing 'Wildcard,' an online multiplayer combat arena, real-time strategy game, and collectible card game hybrid in which players compete in front of real-time, interactive fans and spectators.

The game is a first-of-its-kind hybrid of the multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA), real-time strategy, and collectible card game where players compete surrounded by live, interactive fans and spectators. The Wildcard Alliance team has successfully raised $46 million in a funding round for the upcoming Web3 title.

Wildcard will be powered by Polygon, one of the leading chains for gaming and a platform for Ethereum scaling and infrastructure development. Polygon’s focus on improving crypto’s carbon footprint has been a key factor in the Wildcard Alliance’s decision to leverage the Polygon suite of technologies.

The Wildcard Alliance team has successfully raised $46 million in a funding round for the upcoming Web3 title. The Wildcard Alliance is one of the few dark horses in the bear market3. Capital mainly flowed to the Web3 and NFTs categories. Cryptoys, a digital, collectible NFT toy project, closed a $23 million round led by a16z.
