Planetarium Labs Unveils Two Cutting-Edge Blockchain Games
Both games incorporate Web3 innovations such as self-balancing tokenomics and dynamic guild warfare systems, giving top guilds the power to influence in-game resources and rewards.
In an announcement during the ongoing Korea Blockchain Week (KBW), which started on September 4, Planetarium Labs, a leading Web3 gaming company, has unveiled two innovative blockchain games that promise to redefine the gaming experience for players.
The first game, Verse8, is an open-source, decentralized rogue-like RPG protocol with a rich multiverse backstory, adding depth and excitement to the gameplay. According to a press release shared with Coinspeaker, Verse8 is designed with moddable games that bring together multiplayer experiences, vibrant gaming communities, and virtual economics.
Planetarium Labs to Redefine Blockchain Gaming Experience
The new game is armed with powerful and intuitive tools for world generation, distribution, and monetization. The company said that creators can launch evolving virtual worlds of their own on Verse8 while leveraging community hubs to reach audiences, market their offerings, engage with users and partner with like-minded brands and players.
Planetarium Labs also previewed Immortal Rising 2, a Web3 competitive idle RPG game, during the 2023KBW blockchain event. According to the company, Verse8 and Immortal Rising 2 are built on the success of Mine Chronicles, the company’s first fully on-chain idle RPG game.
However, Immortal Rising 2 is an upgraded version of Immortal Rising 1, which generated over $15 million in revenue. The game was launched exclusively in the Korean market. Planetarium Labs said the new game was built with enhanced gameplay and features to surpass its predecessor.
The blockchain game developer aims to significantly impact the Web 3 gaming sector with both Verse8 and Immortal Rising 2. Its co-founder and CEO, JC Kim, said the game has the potential to redefine the industry.
“We’re incredibly excited to announce our upcoming titles and aim to impact the Web3 gaming scene in 2024 significantly. After months of diligent development and design, we’re thrilled to finally publicly announce our vision for Verse8 and Immortal Rising 2 to the community. Our upcoming lineup holds the potential to redefine the industry, addressing long-standing expectations,” said JC Kim.
Both games incorporate Web3 innovations such as self-balancing tokenomics and dynamic guild warfare systems, giving top guilds the power to influence in-game resources and rewards.
Planetarium Labs Collaborates with XLGames
During the 2023 KBW event announcement, Planetarium Labs revealed that the first game, Verse8, was created in collaboration with Jake Song, the CEO of XLGames, a video game company headquartered in Bundang-gu, South Korea.
Song believes the game’s innovative open UGC protocol ensures content creation is not monopolized.
“Verse8 is more than a game; it embodies the ethos of decentralization. The game’s innovative open UGC protocol ensures that content creation isn’t monopolized by the few but democratized for the many,” explained he.
Alan Lau, the chief business officer of Animoca Brands, also shared the same sentiments as Song for Immortal Rising 2. He noted:
“We are entering a new era defined by collaboration, immersive gameplay, and community-driven content, and Animoca Brands is thrilled to be actively engaged in this pivotal phase of the blockchain gaming revolution.”
Animoca Brands was one of the major venture capital companies that invested in the company last year during its Series A funding round. At the time, Planetarium Labs raised $32 million to build community-focused games.
