Mokens League, an NFT-based eSports platform, announced the completion of their $2 million seed fund, which will be used to complete the game’s development cycle as well as construct and operate game servers throughout the world to ensure a latency-free play experience. The multiplayer game platform also announced the launch of its in-game currency, MOKA token, on the Polygon network, which will serve as the primary utility token in the ecosystem of Mokens League Platform-developed eSports games and, in the future, for third-party games that integrate with the platform.
“While we are thrilled and excited about the massive growth of crypto-based gaming, we can’t help but notice that there is a fundamental problem right now with existing ‘play to earn’ games that reward people for just spending time on a game that does not work. This is not fun or challenging and definitely not sustainable,” said Martin Repetto, CEO of Monsters League Studios LLC.
“NFTs and tokens can be enticing for players to play our games, but as always, what will retain gamers is fantastic gameplay and eSports mechanics. The longest played games in the world right now are competitive eSports. That’s why our main priority is to make a game that is fun to play, easy to get going, but hard to master. Like Chess or Poker, there will be different levels where people can compete without getting overrun by pros or hardcore players. These games should also be as fun to play as they are to watch because the streaming community is the number one driver of game adoption at the moment,” he added.
