In July 2021, Animoca Brands acquired 100% of Australian indie game developer Blowfish Studios for $6.6 million dollars. Blowfish Studios is an award-winning independent Sydney-based developer and publisher of high-quality multi-platform games, including Qbism, Siegecraft, Morphite, Projection: First Light, and Storm Boy.
The duo recently closed their Private Planet Sale for the upcoming blockchain game: Phantom Galaxies. Animoca Brands and Blowfish Studios reported that 7,734 Planets and Asteroids (“Planets”) were sold for a total of $19.3 million dollars.
Phantom Galaxies is an open-world combat game, currently in Alpha. The game is said to be one of the first blockchain-based AAA game titles to launch with broad appeal to both traditional web2 gaming enthusiasts and web3 natives. Three of the four episodes of the Alpha version are available now, and early access to the Beta launch is expected to occur in Q3 2022.
