Revolving Game raises $13.2M to begin its Web3 endeavor

Revolving Games, a smartphone free-to-play games company, has committed to going Web3. The business announced yesterday that it had received an extra $13.2M in initial funding from various venture capitalists, bringing its total capital to $25M. Pantera Capital directed the latest season, which included Dan Houser, the founder of Rockstar Games, Dapper Labs, Polygon, and Animoca Brands.

Houser is a seasoned game manufacturer who worked on Rockstar’s franchises. He has now joined the advisory board of Revolving Games as a consultant and investor.

Yat Siu and Paul Veradittakit declared in a declaration that they had been grateful to be shareholders in the Revolving Games project. As stated in a news release, Revolving Games, established by three siblings, Shayan, Ammar, and Saad Zaeem, will employ the newly raised money to develop “decentralized” video games.

Their view is crystal clear. They want to create AAA-quality video games that stand out among the finest launches at significant gaming conventions such as Gamescom or E3. In a declaration, Ammar Zaeem stated that they’d be capable of improving their new tech and generating a more composable and completely decentralized video games future.

Revolving Games is already working on two noted entries. The initial release is a Battlestar Galactica 4X MMO crypto game co-developed by NBCUniversal and Gala Games. It was initially confirmed during the 2022 Galaverse meeting.

On Polygon, the second video game is Skyborne Legacy, a Nintendo cooperative RPG. Whereas it will not be officially revealed until this October, Skyborne’s Twitter profile seems to have been engaged with specific odd comments from what appears to be an emblem or persona in the upcoming blockchain video game.

Who is this game for?

When asked about their intended audience, Revolving Games founders Ammar and Saad said their primary goal is to lure traditional players.

However, these co-CEOs are still not cryptocurrency “Moonboys.” According to the Zaeem siblings, not all video games will or must enforce NFTs. Furthermore, if you incorporate NFT into your video game, you must use them in a manner that improves the customer experience instead of merely serving the purpose of monetization.

Rather than additional payouts or scholar structures, the Zaeem trio would like to provide AAA games that require less dedication from gamers. They presume that gamers must be allowed to try out their video games for no fees, put the money and time into learning about their universe, and eventually determine if they have supplied the experience they have been searching for before perpetrating their hard-earned money to help their games.
