Wizardia, a Play-to-Earn (P2E) online role-playing strategy gaming platform on the Solana blockchain, has successfully partnered with TrustSwap. The two firms partnered to launch the Wizardia native non-fungible token ($WZRD) and a more complex battle-based gameplay.
The gaming platform confirmed its successful integration with TrustSwap late last week, with Wizardia now expecting to unveil its token offering before the end of this week. It is worth noting that many decentralized finance (DeFi) gaming platforms have become earning opportunities for many gamers.
However, the resulting proceeds are not enough to encourage gameplay for the long term, especially with the gaming sector going mainstream. On their part, players desperately need lore and complex storylines that involve a deep history of the character and setting they can depend on.
Otherwise, blockchain gaming bots, created with the sole purpose of lactating money from these gaming projects, would outperform human users. But interestingly, the much-awaited Wizardia game has identified the vulnerability in many gaming platforms and created a more modish gameplay world. Such a design is expected to attract and entertain users, even amid a market downturn. A member from the Wizardia team shared:
“Without simply disparaging the GameFi space en masse – after all, it alone was responsible for 50% of the active wallets in the DeFi space at the end of 2021 – developers must learn from previous mistakes and build solutions to overcome them. Wizardia is looking to do exactly this by creating a game that stands the test of time and entices players regardless of simple monetary incentive.”
Wizardia is renowned for creating Triple-A games, including Call of Duty Black Ops, Cold War, Titanfall 2, and Need for Speed 2015. Its experience allegedly enabled it to reach the recent achievement.
How will Wizardia Sustain The Gaming Trend?
This Wizardia game will take players through a massive space of Fog, where havens have developed on a few pieces of land. Players will then interact with the game through a large graph-based map of continents, allowing them to explore natural resources. Consequently, the move will make users build their defenses and learn how to improve their strategy.
Nonetheless, not all ecosystem participants will be interested in the historic character. Some will be interested in earning opportunities. In this case, Wizardia has enabled continued development through the availability of Arena Genesis NFTs, which generate royalties from the game without necessarily invading the world of Wizardia itself.
This development ensures that gameplay is reserved only for the most passionate gamers. These gamers will experience reduced barriers when participating in Wizardia because the new option has no buy-in fee for new players.
Instead, the NFT-based economy that thrives with Wizard avatars at its center can be leveled up to enhance their player-character using successful gameplay. The successful players might later decide to rent out their nonfungible tokens down the road.
Wizardia Community
In the past six months, the project has seen its private round being 90% filled. Within the same time, its seed round closed within a week, and the community grew to comprise more than 233,000 members. Wizardia has also reported over 2000 Arena Genesis NFTs sales, with at least 60KOLs and a group of well-known advisors onboarded.
It is only safe to say that this year’s main focus is on similar metrics to expand the game’s community to 500,000 active users. The platform is also getting ready to introduce some of the key features, each of which is scheduled for release in staggered phases. It plans to start with the Battle Arena and conclude with AR and VR integration.
Users can now expect that initial decentralized exchange offerings (IDO) and initial exchange offerings (IEO) of the game’s tokens will become available for use in the coming months.
