September 12, 2024 –– Random Games has announced a partnership with acclaimed game development studio Arctic7, which is looking to explore content development opportunities in the Unioverse, the former’s pioneering sci-fi franchise and game creation platform.
The collaboration marks a major milestone for the Unioverse, Random Games’ vision for a community-owned, billion-dollar franchise game developers can use royalty-free. It also highlights the platform’s ability to attract top-tier creative talent – including game developers.
With discussions already underway, the ongoing partnership promises to bring exciting new experiences to the growing Unioverse community which exceeds 100,000 collectors and 1.3 million NFTs minted.
“We are thrilled that Arctic7 has shown interest in the Unioverse,” said Tony Harman, Co-founder and CEO of Random Games. “Their expertise and creative vision align perfectly with our mission to create a groundbreaking gaming experience. We look forward to exploring potential projects together.”
“Arctic7’s interest in the Unioverse is a significant milestone for us,” added Harman’s Co-founder and CTO Wyeth Ridgway. “We are excited about the possibilities this partnership presents and are hopeful to share more news about potential development plans in the future.”
Founded in 2022, Texas-based Arctic7 recently expanded its operations with a studio in Barcelona. The fast-growing company boasts full-game and co-development capabilities, and specializes in crafting memorable experiences for partners and players.
“Arctic7 is proud to partner with Random Games and believes the Unioverse will be the next big thing for developers like us and other creators,” said Arctic7 CEO John Burns. “We are eager to explore the opportunities this innovative platform offers.”
The announcement of the partnership comes at a time when the gaming industry is witnessing a rise in collaborative projects, particularly in the web3 space. Recent examples include Manchester United Football Club partnering with Tezos to launch a web3 trading card game, Animoca Brands teaming up with LayerZero Labs to enhance the appeal of blockchain gaming, and Immutable collaborating with Republic Crypto Partners to revolutionize game tokenomics.
