Floki delays Valhalla mainnet launch to early 2025

Floki has postponed the mainnet launch of its flagship play-to-earn game, Valhalla, to early 2025.

Originally slated for release this November, the massively multiplayer online role-playing game metaverse project will now debut in the first quarter of 2025. The Floki (FLOKI) team announced the delay on Nov. 25, citing feedback from auditors as the reason. The additional time will allow the security team to ensure the highest level of safety for Valhalla users and their assets.

Floki has worked on the metaverse game for three years, with its launch one of the biggest utility developments for the meme coin project. With the gaming sector seeing a resurgence in recent months, Floki’s Valhalla has stood out for its potential to penetrate the sector.

The delay till Q1, 2025 offers the developer team more time to work with its auditing partners. It’s expected this could take a few weeks, and Floki is pushing forward the mainnet launch as a precaution.

 “To ensure absolute safety of assets and users within the Valhalla ecosystem, we commissioned two of the most respected auditors in this space—Hacken and OpenZeppelin—to review the Valhalla contracts prior to mainnet launch. They recently made a number of suggestions that will help further enhance the security of the platform and safety of users and assets within the Valhalla ecosystem,” the Floki team wrote in an update on X.

Valhalla will offer a P2E economy, with the ecosystem benefiting from a treasury that’s grown to $60 million so far.
