Mythical Games Joins Forces with Polkadot to Revolutionize the Next Generation of Gaming | Blockster

Mythical Games, a next-generation game technology company, has announced its plans to migrate the Mythical Chain from Ethereum to the Polkadot ecosystem.

This move will enable Mythical Games to expand both ecosystems by millions of users and launch a Mythos "Superchain" for the benefit of the Mythos ecosystem, a decentralized autonomous organization established to reduce barriers to entry for game developers.

The Superchain will leverage Polkadot's interoperable multichain technology, allowing new gaming partners and projects to create the largest and most connected gaming ecosystem in Web3.

The transition to Polkadot will allow Mythical Chain to enable Mythos gaming partners to build their own chains without sacrificing interoperability or connectivity, resulting in a scalable platform that will be accessible to all Mythos partners and compliant with Web2 gaming platforms, including the Epic Games Store.
This accessibility is a core principle for Mythical as it continues to bridge the gap between blockchain and traditional gaming.
The move from Ethereum to Polkadot is a combination of issues surrounding relatively slow transaction speeds and the need to build on a security and governance infrastructure that gets stronger over time with more participation. After discussions with numerous blockchain protocols, Polkadot's commitment to innovation, security, and governance provides the most value for the community.

The Polkadot ecosystem will benefit from Mythical's advanced features, streaming technologies, and Web3 gaming expertise, driving adoption of Mythical and Polystream - Mythical's interactive streaming platform - across Polkadot's burgeoning ecosystem.

Mythical Games was founded in 2018 and features immersive games such as NFL Rivals, its newest game and the first Web3 game from the National Football League and NFL Players Association, Blankos Block Party on Epic Game Store, and the soon-to-be-released Nitro Nation: World Tour.

The Mythical Chain is currently in the top four blockchains in terms of monthly digital asset sales and handles more gaming transactions a day than any other blockchain, including Ethereum.

In addition to the migration to Polkadot, Mythical will provide its patent-pending digital asset reservation system to its users. The system can escrow any item on-chain, ensuring that even if a purchase starts on a traditional gaming ecosystem, it will be delivered to players buying with fiat while still recording the transaction or sale on-chain.

Currently compliant with major gaming ecosystems like the Epic Games Store, Apple iOS, and Google Play, additional compatibility is forthcoming and will subsequently expand both the Mythical and Polkadot communities even further.
The move to Polkadot will allow Mythical Games to focus on what it is great at - games.
Polkadot will deliver on its promise to be the most advanced and versatile blockchain platform, and Scytale Digital is proud to be a valued partner in this deal. The engagement brings significant potential for growth and interoperability, driving adoption of Mythical and Polystream across Polkadot's burgeoning ecosystem.

Together with Mythical, Polkadot looks forward to onboarding additional AAA gaming companies and gamers to the Mythos ecosystem, bringing Polkadot one step closer to becoming the global leader in next-generation gaming.
