What’s next?

Pick up where we left off

In 2020 we launched League of Kingdoms as the world’s first blockchain MMO strategy game. Our unwavering commitment is to create “all-weather” blockchain games that appeal to everyone “first”. We then made a promise to adopt blockchain-based tokens as we reached mass adoption of the game. In such an emerging era where crypto kitties is the only precedent, it feels like a pipe dream.

Balancing a hardcore MMO strategy game with NFT features is a cruelly difficult task, a rabbit hole of endless grinding, optimizing and balancing. And to make it worse, the crypto winter and COVID 19 have hit us brutally. While we keep building, many of our good friends like Axie Infinity and The SandBox keep going through the winter.

When spring came, the play-to-earn revolution took off. In the second half of 2021, the number of daily active users of League of Kingdoms increased tenfold, from 5,000 to 50,000. Tens of thousands of people have come for fun and stayed because of crypto. Increasing crypto-literate players and accelerated growth have convinced us that the time is right to pick up where we left off.

With this round of funding, League of Kingdoms will develop into a game metaverse that offers a fun gaming experience including the introduction of PvP arenas, P2E expansion by the Drago x $ SOD economy, platform trading (e.g. NFT bazaar ), GameFi engines (e.g. staking portal, GameFi console), governance infrastructure (i.e. governance agora), token rewards for in-game competitions played as a CvC, social media functions, e- Sports tools, compatible assets, and many other exciting updates that enrich the player experience both inside and outside League of Kingdoms.

To accomplish this mission, League of Kingdoms Arena is trying to build a strong network of guilds and communities around the world to attract different groups of players while providing them with an immersive gaming experience. , attractive in-game assets, exciting campaigns and more to ensure the sustainable and healthy development of the gaming platform.

Community is king!

Nowadays, less and less is done under the supervision of game studios and more is done outside of them. The hottest initiatives in GameFi today are owned and developed by communities.

In the next generation of games, we assume that this trend will only accelerate. The more power and value the game gives back to the community, the more successful the games will be.

With this vision in mind, we’re increasing our investment in the community significantly by incorporating community-driven initiatives like play-to-earn guilds.

Thanks to over 200,000 players worldwide and active contributors in our community channels. This would not have been possible without your continued support.
