Telegram mini-games to get a boost with Pixelverse and Azur Games

Web3 gaming platform Pixelverse has announced a strategic partnership with mobile gaming studio Azur Games to enhance the gaming experience of Telegram mini-games.

This collaboration will deliver a new mobile game on the Pixelverse platform featuring characters from the Pixelverse ecosystem. The collaboration will bridge the gap between Web3 and traditional mobile gaming by utilizing advanced game features and integrating blockchain elements.

Pixelverse continues to expand its reach, having recently achieved major milestones such as the successful listing of the PIXFI token and raising $7.5 million from investors. Its platform and games have attracted a combined 75 million players and have gained over 14 million social media followers.

Telegram mini apps have become a huge success, with apps like Notcoin (NOT) and Hamster Kombat attracting millions of players worldwide. Hamster Kombat, for example, has become one of the fastest-growing web3 apps with over 300 million users since its launch in March 2024.

Telegram expands to Web3

Telegram also recently launched a new in-app browser that gives its 950 million users access to its platform for creating decentralized websites on the Open Network (TON) blockchain.

Azur Games, a leading mobile game publisher with over 8 billion downloads and 250 million monthly active users, will use its Web2 expertise to develop a more engaging and sustainable gaming experience for Telegram mini-games.

This partnership hopes to bring more mainstream users to Web3 games and move beyond the current clicker gaming trend by offering new and enjoyable gaming experiences on Telegram.
