Japan’s Largest Mobile Game Developer Enters Web3 Gaming

Japan’s largest mobile gaming developer is set to launch Tokyo Beast on Immutable, marking a major milestone in blockchain gaming. The announcement highlights Immutable’s growing dominance in Asia’s web3 gaming market, securing its third unicorn developer partnership.

A Futuristic Battleground with Web3 Integration

Set in Tokyo, 2124, Tokyo Beast presents a high-stakes world where androids known as BEAST compete in XENO-karate tournaments while humans live in luxury. The game introduces dual participation, allowing both active competitors and spectators to engage in battles.

In Tokyo Beast, players assemble teams of four BEAST androids to compete in daily PvP battles and weekend championship tournaments, testing their strategy and combat skills. Meanwhile, spectators can engage by predicting match outcomes, with rewards granted for accurate forecasts, adding an interactive layer to the experience. The game integrates real-time analytics to enhance gameplay decisions, providing players with detailed insights on party compositions, performance metrics, and betting odds to strategize effectively.

Naoki Motohashi, the Producer of Tokyo Beast, emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating:

"Partnering with Immutable was a clear choice for us as we push the boundaries of Web3 gaming. Immutable’s technology perfectly aligns with our vision for competitive gaming on the blockchain."

Web3 Features That Set Tokyo Beast Apart

• Shared NFT System: Players can participate without owning NFTs by staking tokens to access BEAST NFTs, while existing holders retain asset value.
• Breeding Mechanics: Players can breed BEAST androids to create rare, unique variants, adding strategic depth and long-term progression.
• Competitive PvP Battles: Daily arena battles lead up to a weekly championship where the top 20 players earn in-game rewards.
