$FYN Skyrockets After Pokémon Day Presentation | Affyn Incoming
Pokémon Day has sparked excitement in the crypto and gaming communities. Companies like DNA and creators of the Pokémon Trading Card Game are collaborating with the Pokémon Company on a new game called Pokémon Masters EX. This has led to speculation that we could see NFT and blockchain integrations.
Many Pokémon fans and gamers have been dissatisfied with recent Pokémon video games. Pokémon GO was the last major innovation back in 2016. This presents an opportunity for web3 gaming projects to fill the void. One project called Affyn has launched a game called Buddy Arena that shares similarities with Pokémon. It features collectible NFT creatures and virtual land plots tied to real world geography. If Affyn can execute well, it could capture some of the demand from disappointed Pokémon fans.
Other crypto gaming projects are also capitalizing on the interest around Pokémon Day. Seekers of Adoulin built a Pokémon-style game on the Aurora blockchain. Heroes of Mavia recently announced they will build on the BNB Chain. However, the price of Mavia’s token has stayed flat despite this news. This shows that partnerships alone don’t guarantee success - these games need to resonate with users and show product-market fit.
As we’ve seen with games like Pal World, there is huge potential virality and demand for crypto games done right. Pokémon boasts 50 million downloads just for Pokémon Unite on mobile. The current state of official Pokémon games has left an opportunity for upstarts to grab market share if they can execute.
With so much innovation happening around gaming NFTs and the metaverse, investors should keep an eye on projects making headway in capturing the interest of Pokémon fans. The winners in this space have room for tremendous growth if they can meet the demand for new Pokémon experiences.
