Blade of God X is an action role-playing game with gameplay similar to “Souls-like” games, known for their complex action sequences. 
It’s currently <a href="https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/bogx-a639f3" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">listed</a> on the Epic Game Store as an early-access title featuring blockchain functionality. Per the game’s listing, engagement with nonfungible tokens, cryptocurrency and other Web3 features is strictly optional. Blade of God X is free to download and play. However, interaction with its blockchain-based features might require payment or wallet access. 
The game is compatible with Immutable X and Ethereum Virtual Machine chains, according to FAQ documentation on the Epic Games Store. 
Those who choose to connect to the game’s Web3 features will be able to <a href="https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/bogx-faq-aa6ebc" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">trade</a> and “forge their own game experiences” via MetaMask, GameStop, Venly, Coinbase Wallet, or with Magic Link or Immutable passport.
Per the press release, games in the series have so far been downloaded more than six million times, and Blades of X itself has now raised $6 million.
Void Labs founder Tnise said the company was grateful for OKX Venture’s “invaluable support” after its commitment to invest:

 “This partnership will provide us with the necessary resources and guidance to continue innovating, broaden our horizons and deliver exceptional gaming experiences to players worldwide.”
</blockquote>
The game’s other investors include Delphi Ventures, BreederDAO, Eden Holdings and several others.
