DOGAMÍ Academy Goes Multi-Chain With Polygon Expansion

Entertainment company DOGAMÍ has officially announced their multi-chain expansion with the integration of the Polygon network, bridging it together with the Tezos ecosystem and enabling players to enjoy cross-chain gameplay together in DOGAMÍ Academy, a Web3 mobile racing management game.

Multi-Chain Expansion Details

By integrating the Polygon network alongside Tezos, DOGAMÍ expands its reach to new Web3 communities, placing itself in a pivotal position to continue garnering further growth. As a result, the studio has added 2 new features to their official marketplace that allow users to migrate their Tezos Dogamí NFTs over to Polygon as well as bridge $DOGA tokens from Tezos to the newly-integrated chain. With these features, existing NFT and $DOGA holders are also able to reap the benefits of the EVM ecosystem by migrating to Polygon, providing access to various popular marketplaces such as OpenSea, Blur, and Magic Eden. Soon, it will also be possible to stake $DOGA tokens on the game’s official website via Polygon.

Max Stöckl, the co-founder and CEO of DOGAMÍ, said the following in a press release:

“We are thrilled to announce the release of DOGAMÍ Academy to the wider web3 space. The enthusiastic response from our core community, including average daily play times of over 60 minutes and more than 500,000 races played, has fuelled our excitement and confidence in DOGAMI’s potential. Building on this momentum, we are eager to unlock additional growth by embracing a multi-chain strategy as it allows us to tap into the powerful network effects of both the Tezos & Polygon ecosystem.”

The 3D game can now be played in an early access version on both Tezos and Polygon using DOGAMÍ NFTs, but in Q1 2024, the developers plan on going free-to-play, strategically opening the game to a broader audience beyond the world of Web3.
