Survival based platform games have grown rapidly in the last decade and open-world MMO games are increasingly popular and have incredibly large existing user bases that are already familiar with a desktop system.
By using blockchain technology and NFT (non-fungible token) digital assets within the unRevealed platform we are able to empower the players in new ways. Not only will the UNRV token serve as the digital currency within the unRevealed platform – NFTs have also emerged as a major market segment within the gaming market. Guaranteeing security, authenticity, and scarcity – the value of NFTs in gaming experiences is massive. Because each NFT is unique and not interchangeable – it will deliver players a method to monetize their gaming experience like never before. unRevealed will not only provide players with ways to earn NFTs through game play, but also the ability to create and trade their own unRevealed NFTs.
Both Rust and ARK: Survival Evolved are consistently top 10 active games on Steam seeing hundreds of thousands of daily players. unRevealed has the ability to offer experienced gamers and newcomers a growing ecosystem similar to these platforms with the opportunities for monetization and direct community involvement and control that other platforms do not support.
As of early January 2022, the existing crypto gaming market is inundated with very similar style games. Cryptocurrency has lent itself well to numerous low-poly existing mobile game platforms.
There are numerous outlets being explored specifically the trading card platforms and simpler sprite oriented concepts. Platforms like The Sandbox and Axie Infinity are seeing price growth but are limited to the platform they are delivering - and the user base isn't quite there yet. While there is a market for many of these games - unRevealed sees a great opportunity in adapting for and serving the more established gaming community.
The current crypto-gaming community is heavily dominated by low-poly, 2d, and sprite-oriented platforms and titles. There are numerous incredible, fun, and exciting projects - however, the concept is becoming heavily oversaturated. Basic farming games, trading card games, and fantasy concepts are heavily prevalent throughout the current crypto-gaming community and players are limited to choices that narrow their gaming outlets and abilities.
Please don't misunderstand us - we love these kinds of games and are striving to provide a similar experience to our own community.
Our goal is to separate unRevealed from these platforms by engaging users with a desktop platform experience in a new and exciting way. There are incredibly few options currently available for gamers to monetize their gameplay. By delivering a desktop platform experience - unRevealed can take advantage of a nearly untapped gaming market.
Our ability to take advantage of a high quality rendering engine like Unity and to bridge it with cryptocurrency will set unRevealed apart.
The crypto-gaming community is seeing incredible volume and production despite a general downturn in the overall crypto markets. Total crypto-gaming market cap as of January 5, 2022 is nearly $31 billion seeing upwards of $5 billion daily trade volume.
The top 5 gaming projects all hold over $2 billion dollars in market cap. The next 35 projects all hold at least $100 million in market cap. The top 32 projects are all seeing more than $10 million in daily trade.
The NFT markets have absolutely exploded throughout 2021. The primary driving aspect of these transactions is heavily rooted in NFT art. However, the gaming NFT market has been growing rapidly.
2021 saw the NFT gaming market with:
Over $3.3 billion in gaming NFT sales**
Over 7.8 million primary sales and over 8.2 million secondary sales**
This is especially exciting when compared to art NFT sales that are seeing a negative secondary sale ratio - showing that the NFT art market is fairly limited to NFT value appreciation. In contrast - the NFT gaming market is proving to be an active and trading NFT community.
Success in both the gaming and cryptocurrency communities require communication, networking, partnerships, and more. unRevealed is seeking to become a solid partner for numerous outlets to provide our service to as many people as possible.
Our initial marketing efforts will be focused on attracting gamers from multiple existing communities that share our platform's style and approach. Because of the expanse and depth of the PC gaming market (nearly half of all gamer worldwide) - we anticipate being able to form strong bonds with numerous existing communities.
