Nexus Interactive raises $2M in an oversubscribed seed funding round from Animoca Brands & more

Nexus Interactive has already built two flagship games and IPs, seeing over 1 million games played and almost $2 million in revenue. Today, Nexus Interactive announces a significant leap forward, having raised $2M USD in an oversubscribed seed funding round led by key industry players including, Animoca Brands, Jump Crypto, Maven Capital, GameFi ventures, Sky Vision Capital, Aquanow, Oracles Investment Group, Virtuals IO, Atesis Capital, Enzac Research Avocado Guild, Good Games Guild, RR2 Capital and other small investors.

Nexus’ unique value proposition lies in an infrastructure that consists of three components; Nexus Play which is an in-house development studio; Nexus Build – a Web3 publisher sourcing, accelerating, and launching games built by other developers in the Nexus Interactive ecosystem; and Nexus Share, AI powered user-generated content and community growth programs which have already amassed over 100,000 community members. The company currently houses Everdawn, one of the leading Web3 gaming IPs, and plans to expand by developing other unique game titles through its development studio, including a mobile base builder and a post-apocalyptic open-world MMO, as well as publishing IPs developed by partnered developers and studios within the Nexus ecosystem.

The advantage approach used by Nexus Interactive it says combines different elements from various stakeholders involved in the creation to deploying games, all in-house. The company has generated over $1.8M in revenue with over 100,000+ combined community members. Its flagship title Everdawn Champions, a 3D TCG was also the #1 most-played game on Elixir during its closed beta season. Open beta is set to launch in September 2024, with an enormous waiting list of gamers waiting to get access.
