Square-Enix backs blockchain-based football MMO ‘Soccerverse’
The game uses the Polygon blockchain and currently runs in most browsers.
Soccerverse, the company behind the massively multiplayer online game of the same name, announced a $3.1 fundraise led by Japanese gaming giant Square-Enix on July 11.
The game, which is currently available in beta, is a blockchain-based sports simulation similar to the Football Manager series that allows users to take on various roles such as coaching a team or representing a player. It runs on the Polygon blockchain and, while free-to-play, features web3 functionality.
According to a blog post, Square-Enix led the company’s most recent funding round alongside previous backer Hiro Capital.
