KEY POINTS
Gunzilla Games has revealed the integration of its GUNZ blockchain into the OpenSea non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace.
This integration makes GUNZ the ninth blockchain to be embraced by OpenSea, enabling users to trade in-game items from any game built on GUNZ and use the “GUN” token as the main payment method.
“With OpenSea’s support, we’re one step closer to realizing a unified, player-driven economy across all games developed on the GUNZ blockchain.”
Vlad Korolov, CEO and Co-Founder of Gunzilla Games
GUNZ, operating on a bespoke Avalanche Subnet, empowers game developers by granting full ownership of in-game assets as tradable NFTs, fostering player-centric economies.
The inaugural title from Gunzilla Games, “Off The Grid,” is set to debut as a AAA battle royale third-person shooter game.
This announcement follows Gunzilla Games’ recent funding milestone of $30 million, comprising a $10 million strategic token round co-led by CoinFund and the Avalanche Foundation’s Blizzard Fund, with contributions from Republic Capital and Morningstar Ventures.
This funding round builds upon the success of a previous 2022 round, where the company secured a total of $46 million, spearheaded by Republic Capital, alongside major players such as Griffin Gaming Partners, Animoca Brands, and Jump Crypto.
