Gunzilla Games, the innovative game studio behind the highly anticipated first-person battle royale shooter, Off the Grid, has made a groundbreaking announcement. The studio revealed its collaboration with the renowned NFT marketplace OpenSea, marking a significant step towards revolutionizing in-game asset ownership.
In an exciting development, Gunzilla Games has integrated its GUNZ blockchain platform with OpenSea, the leading marketplace for NFTs. This integration allows players to seamlessly trade in-game items across any title developed on the GUNZ blockchain, leveraging the power of Avalanche technology.
Vlad Korolov, CEO and co-founder of Gunzilla Games, emphasized the studio’s commitment to empowering players with true ownership of their in-game assets. He stated, “Our vision has always been to empower players with true ownership of their in-game assets, transforming how value is created and exchanged in digital worlds. With OpenSea’s support, we’re one step closer to realizing a unified, player-driven economy across all games developed on the GUNZ blockchain.”
Gunzilla Games’ integration with OpenSea follows the studio’s recent successful funding round, raising $30 million from prominent investors such as CoinFund, the Avalanche Foundation’s Blizzard Fund, Republic Capital, and Morningstar Ventures. This partnership underscores Gunzilla’s dedication to advancing Web3 gaming and creating immersive player experiences.
Devin Finzer, CEO of OpenSea, expressed enthusiasm for the collaboration, highlighting the significance of GUNZ integration into the marketplace. He stated, “We are excited to partner with Web3 gaming pioneers like Gunzilla who prioritize great gameplay and advanced in-game economies that put the player first. GUNZ integration into OpenSea acts as a significant moment in that effort, bringing the highly anticipated Off the Grid into our marketplace and adding an element of ownership [that] console and PC players have yet to experience.”
