Pixelverse Expands Web3 Gaming with TON-Powered Browser Game

• Pixelverse launched a closed beta for its MMORPG browser game, introducing TON microtransactions outside Telegram.
• The game uses Web3 technology to allow players to explore a cyberpunk world, complete quests, and influence an open economy.

Pixelverse, the developer behind the popular PixelTap mini-game, has taken a significant step in web3 gaming by launching the closed beta of its highly anticipated MMORPG browser game. This release is significant as it brings TON microtransactions beyond the Telegram environment and provides a smooth experience to the large audience of Pixelverse. 

The new browser game is the first time TON blockchain microtransactions have been used outside of Telegram. Pixelverse’s integration of these transactions benefits the platform’s 10 million monthly active users, as it bridges the gap between Telegram’s mini-games and a more complex Web3 ecosystem. This gives players a more interactive route to the cryptocurrency aspect of the game, which in turn improves their experience.

Pixelverse Bridges Mini-Games and Web3 Ecosystem

Pixelverse has played a significant role in integrating blockchain gaming into Telegram, with PixelTap being one of the platform’s most popular mini-games. The game surged in popularity, especially in August when the company released the biggest PFP NFT drop on TON with 234,000+ investors. The Bots NFT collection was launched soon after that and had more than 40,000 supporters. 

These NFTs offer more than just digital collectibles; they provide several benefits to holders within the Pixelverse ecosystem.PixelTap NFT holders get to share revenues, complete special missions, change the appearance of their avatars, and unlock new content. As the ecosystem grows, these incentives are expected to provide both financial and virtual benefits.

The game is a browser-based game where players find themselves waking up in the year 2600, specifically in Neopolis City, which is a cyberpunk world. This environment is full of possibilities and risks, and everything depends on the desire of the players and their actions.

From quests, rare item collecting, or memory chip recovery, players can accumulate their wealth and power within Neopolis City’s open economy. The interactive economy and environment embody the core ideas of web3, including decentralization and user involvement.

Pixelverse Plans Open Beta Launch for Q4 2024

The game is meant to develop in the manner that the player chooses so that it can be a more dynamic, player-based game. This is because Pixelverse leverages web3 technology, where players are able to own their assets and participate in the game’s economic system. This transition from conventional mobile gaming to a browser game format highlights Pixelverse’s focus on innovating within the web3 gaming sector. 

Kirill, the CEO of Pixelverse, emphasized the importance of building on the platform’s existing Telegram user base. He noted that many users have been introduced to cryptocurrency through mini-games like PixelTap and are now ready for a more advanced experience. By moving beyond mobile gaming, Pixelverse aims to deepen its integration with the web3 space, offering players more complex and engaging gameplay.

The company is using the closed beta phase to gather feedback from early supporters and improve the game ahead of its full release. The open beta is expected to launch in Q4 2024, allowing the broader gaming community to experience Pixelverse’s vision of the future of web3 gaming.
