Gods Unchained Now Available on Epic Games Store
Immutable Games’ popular Web3 trading card game, Gods Unchained, has debuted on the Epic Games Store. This granted access to the game’s NFT cards for the platform’s vast user base of 230 million gamers.
Similar to renowned titles like Hearthstone and Magic: The Gathering Arena, Gods Unchained offers players collectible trading cards with the added advantage of card ownership and trading. Each card is represented as a nonfungible token (NFT) on the Immutable X layer-2 network built on Ethereum. Since its release in June 2019, the game has steadily grown its player base, boasting 80,000 weekly active players by January 2022.
The Epic Games Store, a prominent digital game distribution platform akin to Steam or GOG.com, serves as a gateway for over 230 million PC gamers seeking new gaming experiences. This development arrives amidst ongoing challenges faced by Web3 publishers in response to Steam, the largest PC game distributor globally. Steam’s decision in October 2021 to reject Web3 games and delist Age of Rust due to NFT-related incentives sparked a need for alternative distribution platforms.
