One Championship MMA Game on Sui Blockchain Hits iOS and Android

One Championship, a prominent mixed martial arts or MMA league, has launched a new iOS and Android game built on the Sui blockchain that combines puzzle and fighting gameplay.

The free-to-play game, called One Fight Arena, was developed in collaboration with Notre Game, a subsidiary of crypto game publisher and prominent blockchain industry investor, Animoca Brands.

The mobile game features a roster of One Championship athletes, including former champions Demetrious "Mighty Mouse" Johnson and Rodtang "The Iron Man" Jitmuangnon, allowing players to guide fighters from career beginnings to championship titles.

The gameplay combines match-3 puzzle mechanics with player-versus-player fighting in short bouts. Players can collect "Adrenaline," an in-game currency earned through competitions and quests, which can be redeemed for rewards ranging from One gift cards and merchandise to premium experiences like VIP tickets—and even SUI crypto tokens.

The game integrates crypto features through the Sui blockchain, offering players the option to upgrade in-game athletes to tradeable NFTs. These digital assets provide true ownership and additional earning opportunities within the game ecosystem. Such features are fully optional, however, and One Fight Arena can be played without interacting with blockchain.

One Fight Arena was first announced back in April 2023 for a planned 2024 release. Last September, Sui became One Championship’s official blockchain sponsor, with plans to use the chain for the mobile game.
