HyperPlay Has Announced They Raised $12M from Griffin Gaming Partners, BitKraft, Metamask, and others to build a Web3-Native game store and launcher.
“HyperPlay allows developers to build new kinds of gaming experiences with MetaMask. We are delighted to continue supporting HyperPlay as it disrupts not only the Web3 gaming landscape but the broader Web2 gaming industry as well,” said Ezgi Cengiz, Senior Product Manager at MetaMask.
Now available for early access, HyperPlay’s game launcher will enable players to bring their wallet, tokens, NFTs, and other assets into any game by utilizing an integrated wallet overlay. This gives players the ability to carry one’s wallet and identity across different games marking the initial progress towards achieving complete and effortless interoperability.
With their HyperPlay store, players can effortlessly explore different web3 games and as a bonus for players, HyperPlay aggregates the entire library of the Epic Games Store and GOG as well. Through the multiple game stores that HyperPlay supports, they are creating competitive markets that allow developers to choose the distribution channels that align with their requirements.
HyperPlay is convinced web3 presents their company with the opportunity to construct game worlds that are permissionless, extensible, and inoperable. This in turn will allow the creation of new game types and genres, portable reputation systems, community governance, and other sustainable business models as well. The company HyperPLay is also convinced their funding round will help them expand their business vision and bring it to life as they continue to collaborate with other companies in an effort to build the next generation of gaming.
