Blowfish Studios, a subsidiary of Web3 pioneer Animoca Brands, is launching its Phantom Galaxies science fiction Web3 game into early access today.
Not many blockchain games can claim they’re a triple-A title, but Phantom Galaxies is a contender for that label as a mecha space opera. The game is available on Steam and the Epic Games Store, bridging both triple-A games and Web3 technology.
Phantom Galaxies, an expansive online multiplayer sci-fi action-RPG, welcomes players into a universe with mecha combat, immersive galaxies, handcrafted terrains, and pioneering Web3 integration. The game’s free-to-play approach aims to introduce a wider audience to the potential of blockchain games.
Offering an array of gameplay experiences, players can customize characters, craft their transforming Starfighters tailored to their playstyle, engage in high-intensity combats in space and on planets, and secure strategic locations to defend humanity’s territories.
