PlanetPalz, a highly anticipated Web3 game, is set to merge the magic of MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) gameplay with the security and innovation of blockchain technology.
MOBA Games and MMO
Multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games like League of Legends and Dota 2 have been a cornerstone of the gaming world, captivating players with strategic gameplay and thriving communities. Now, Interplanetary Games Ltd. is gearing up to revolutionize this genre into Web3 gaming with the introduction of PlanetPalz.
PlanetPalz offers a unique blend of MMO (Massively Multiplayer Online) and MOBA gameplay within a blockchain-powered universe. The game’s setting is the vast expanse of PlanetPalz, where players can engage in fast-paced MOBA battles and join multiplayer guilds. The game features two character forms: Elders and Titans. Elders produce trace materials that players can collect and refine, while Titans take humanoid forms and are created from these materials.
Battle, Compete, Conquer
In PlanetPalz, players can deploy their Titans in various game modes. They can compete individually in ranked leagues or form guilds to conquer territories within the PlanetPalz world. To enhance their Titans’ performance, players can equip them with accessories and weapons. Victorious battles yield rewards, including elements, materials, and the in-game token, Galaxy Dust ($DUST).
Bridging Web2 Gamers to Web3
PlanetPalz aims to break down barriers and attract Web2 gamers by streamlining the sign-up process and reducing costs. To achieve this vision, it requires a scalable infrastructure. Enter Immutable’s EVM-compatible zk-rollup technology, Immutable zkEVM, which equips PlanetPalz with custom smart contract support, advanced gameplay mechanics, tokenomics, and a secure and cost-effective trading environment.
William Baker, Founder and COO of Interplanetary Games Ltd., expressed his excitement about bridging to Polygon with Immutable, expanding their reach and simplifying development timelines for both the team and players.
Behind PlanetPalz is a dedicated team of gamers, developers, and artists led by the Baker brothers, Luke (CTO) and William (COO). Luke, known for building the first Cardano NFT marketplace, brings technical expertise to the table, while William, a seasoned designer and entrepreneur, contributes his creative vision.
An Impressive Journey So Far
PlanetPalz’s journey began with an initial NFT launch in 2021, where all 12,000 of their NFTs sold out, raising an impressive $500,000 to independently fund the project. Since then, the community has grown significantly, with over 2,200 NFT holders, 10,000 social media followers, 1,000 pre-launch registered users, and the formation of 40 guilds.
The Road Ahead
In March 2023, PlanetPalz conducted a two-week minimum viable product (MVP) test, aptly named “The League of Blockchain,” which garnered substantial interest. Building on this early success, the team is gearing up for the online beta and the official game launch in 2024, with plans for a mobile release in 2026.
PlanetPalz promises an exciting future for blockchain gaming enthusiasts and Web2 gamers looking to embark on a new digital frontier.
