For developers and crypto enthusiasts alike, bridging the gap between NFT and blockchain gaming has been a constant challenge. NFT collections are designed to bring utility to their owners. Building a complete game is often beyond the budget for these projects.
However, blue-chip NFTs are more popular and valued than collectibles from gaming projects. It is therefore a question: How can NFT owners use their digital assets to support other Web3 projects, and specifically active gaming platforms? One project has already found the solution and is attracting solid users.
NFT collection enters the race
PetaRush, a racing game project with ambitious goals, uses NFTs to represent playable characters. As the interest in the platform grows, the project has already sold both its whitelist as well as its public sale.
PetaRush created a platform which allows users to use popular NFT collection outside of the game environment. PhantaBear holders can use their Bear NFTs to race in the game with PetaRush characters. The game team is continually working to add more NFT integrations.
PetaRush’s ability to add an additional layer of utility NFT collections gives it a competitive edge over other racing games in blockchain. Not only that, the game has the potential to attract users who wouldn’t traditionally venture into Web3 gaming. To top it all off, this innovative project is looking to welcome everyone to the blockchain gaming space — even users who are not part of the crypto ecosystem yet.
Web3 open for all
PetaRush is not only focused on NFT collectors, but also provides them with an additional layer in utility. This is PetaRush’s mission. The biggest challenge facing blockchain gaming is reaching a broad audience. PetaRush is open to all users in order to address that problem.
To play the game, players don’t need to have a NFT or a crypto wallet. Gamers can earn rewards as they progress through the game. These could include whitelist spots or NFTs. Players don’t have to spend anything to enjoy the Mars-themed racing tracks.
PetaRush’s multi-IP focus and platform design make it a formidable platform to transform the Web3 space. The goal of PetaRush is to make Web3 gaming more popular by taking the most desired NFTs and connecting them into blockchain gaming.
Gaming and NFTs go hand in hand
In 2022, the NFT space exploded in popularity and attracted a lot mainstream coverage. The gaming industry generated more than half the blockchain activity towards the end of 2018.
The crypto space will see more users as these two sectors combine to form the next generation Web3 project. Despite the current economic climate being difficult, crypto winter could be ended by the rise of Web3 projects that provide utility for both mainstream users and crypto enthusiasts.
