PlaysOut announced a comprehensive expansion of the Dogecoin gaming ecosystem. The platform plans to release approximately 15 Dogecoin-themed mini-games by year-end, with the first launch scheduled for August.

These hypercasual games will be accessible via the MyDoge wallet and the PlaysOut mobile application, leveraging the DogeOS application layer built on the Dogecoin blockchain.

Token rewards in DOGE will be distributed through leaderboards, quests, and competitions. Moreover, in-game items will be tradable as Dogecoin NFTs, commonly referred to as “Doginals.”

The diverse portfolio includes games ranging from life simulators to puzzle genres, aiming for broad appeal and significant real-world utility for Dogecoin holders beyond speculative holding.

PlaysOut, known for adapting popular Chinese WeChat games for Western markets, is also pursuing licensing agreements. This strategy aims to integrate global intellectual properties into the Dogecoin gaming space, reinforcing the coin’s role in popular culture.

Mythical Games officially launched “FIFA Rivals,” a mobile soccer game built on blockchain technology, on Thursday, June 12, for iOS and Android platforms.

The developers position this game as significantly larger than their prior “NFL Rivals,” which reportedly fields seven million players. Mythical cites soccer’s status as a global phenomenon with an estimated five billion fans as a key factor.

The game features a long-term partnership with Adidas, granting access to sought-after collectible gear and featuring prominent athletes like Lionel Messi in sponsored in-game personas. Underlying technology utilizes the Mythos blockchain.

This infrastructure facilitates free trading of in-game assets. Mythical Games, which holds future FIFA partnerships including multi-World Cup deals, plans further development including AI sports agents, competitive esports leagues, and additional game modes throughout the year.
