Mythical Games’ $650M in transactions highlights how Web3 gaming is evolving from buzz to real business.

With over 7 million gamers, this studio proves that blockchain-powered titles can succeed beyond hype. The company is behind popular games like NFL Rivals, and it’s set to launch a FIFA blockchain title this summer.

Backed by giants like a16z and Animoca Brands, Mythical Games blends major intellectual property with crypto mechanics. Their success shows that on-chain gaming doesn’t need to overwhelm users with tech. Instead, the studio focuses on fun gameplay with digital ownership layered in. Players collect valuable in-game assets without even realizing they’re using blockchain.

Their strategy pays off. The studio claims $650 million in completed transactions from its growing ecosystem. Although only 4 million of those are actual crypto transactions, it points to a wider player base engaging with digital items in non-technical ways.

Mythical’s approach sets new standards for mobile blockchain gaming

Unlike click-to-earn mini-apps like Hamster Kombat, Mythical’s games emphasize fun and long-term engagement. The company subtly critiques games that lean too heavily on financial incentives without deep gameplay. Their statement, “Mobile onchain gaming works because players focus on the game, not the tech,” captures this philosophy perfectly.

In NFL Rivals, players collect, trade, and own in-game assets — all without needing to understand NFTs. The planned FIFA title and upcoming Pudgy Penguins collaboration suggest Mythical’s pipeline is only heating up. By linking with major IPs, they’re making blockchain gaming feel familiar, not fringe.

Mythical Games’ $650M in transactions proves Web3 isn’t just a fad

The company’s achievements aren’t limited to revenue. Their ability to license and partner with brands like the NFL, FIFA, and Pudgy Penguins cements their reputation as a leading Web3 studio. Investors like Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest and MoonPay show strong institutional belief in Mythical’s roadmap.

Blockchain gaming still raises questions: Can you make a living from it? Is it more than speculation? Mythical’s model shows that when you lead with gameplay and treat blockchain as the backend, you get real traction. Mythical Games’ $650M in transactions proves that sustainable, engaging economies in crypto games are already here.

What is Mythical Games and what makes it different?

Mythical Games is a Web3 gaming studio known for blending blockchain with well-known intellectual properties like the NFL and FIFA. Unlike many crypto games that emphasize financial incentives or complex crypto elements, Mythical focuses on gameplay first. Players collect and trade items powered by blockchain, but the tech remains mostly invisible. This “game-first, tech-second” approach sets them apart in a crowded Web3 space.

How does Mythical Games generate $650 million in transactions?

The $650 million figure comes from in-game transactions, player purchases, and digital item trades across titles like NFL Rivals. While only 4 million were crypto transactions, it highlights Mythical’s strength in merging real economies with engaging gameplay. Players buy items they value, often unaware they’re using blockchain tech — that’s the secret sauce behind their success.

Are Mythical Games titles truly Web3 or just traditional games with crypto?

Mythical Games strikes a balance. The core gameplay feels traditional — accessible, mobile-friendly, and engaging. But behind the scenes, players own their assets via blockchain, meaning they can trade and hold digital goods. The Web3 layer is invisible to most users but available to those who want deeper control and ownership.

What upcoming projects can we expect from Mythical Games?

In addition to NFL Rivals, Mythical is set to launch a FIFA-themed blockchain game and a new title with Pudgy Penguins. These high-profile collaborations suggest the company is doubling down on IP-driven growth. Backing from names like Animoca, a16z, and ARK Invest gives Mythical a strong position to expand in 2025 and beyond.
