Gods Unchained

Immutable Games’ popular Web3 trading card game, Gods Unchained, has made its debut on the Epic Games Store, granting access to its impressive player base of 230 million customers. This exciting development was officially announced on June 21. 
Gods Unchained is a captivating collectible trading card game that draws comparisons to popular titles like Hearthstone and Magic: The Gathering Arena. 
However, what sets it apart is its innovative use of nonfungible tokens (NFTs) to represent each card. 
These NFTs are built on the Ethereum layer-2 network known as Immutable X. Since its initial release in June 2019, Gods Unchained has steadily amassed a dedicated player base, reaching an impressive milestone of 80,000 weekly active players by January 2022. 
The Epic Games Store, a digital game distribution platform akin to Steam and GOG.com, boasts a vast user base of over 230 million PC gamers. 
This recent integration with the Epic Games Store marks a significant milestone for Gods Unchained, according to Daniel Paez, the executive producer of the game. 
Paez expressed his enthusiasm, stating, “It is hard to overestimate the significance of Gods Unchained’s launch on Epic Games Store, one of the largest PC gaming platforms in the world. 
We are extremely excited to present our game to a completely new and truly massive audience of traditional PC gamers and TCG enthusiasts.” 
This release comes at a time when Web3 publishers are grappling with challenges from Steam, the dominant PC game distributor worldwide. 
In October 2021, Steam made a controversial announcement, declaring that Web3 games were not welcome on its platform. In addition, it delisted Age of Rust due to the benefits it provided to owners of its NFTs. 
Responding to Steam’s actions, former MetaMask team members took action and introduced a competing distribution platform called Hyperplay. 
Hyperplay aims to counter Steam’s restrictions and provides access to the Epic Games and GOG.com stores through its own interface. Additionally, it curates a selection of Web3 titles. To further develop the platform and expand its reach, the Hyperplay team recently secured $12 million in funding on June 8. 
With Gods Unchained now available on the Epic Games Store, it opens up new opportunities for the game’s growth and introduces it to a vast community of traditional PC gamers and trading card game enthusiasts. 
This collaboration between Immutable Games and Epic Games marks an exciting chapter in the history of Gods Unchained, solidifying its position in the gaming industry.
