Pixelmon is set to undergo a major overhaul in 2024. Despite a few initial setbacks and a change in ownership, they have recently secured a significant amount of funding – a cool $8 million in seed funding to be exact. Responsible for the funding are companies such as Animoca Brands and Delphi Digital. With this substantial financial support, Pixelmon is now poised to turn a new page and embark on a new chapter.
From Rough Patches to Refined Art
Remember when Pixelmon had that Minecraft vibe? Well, they’re moving past that. After LiquidX took the helm in 2022, Pixelmon has given itself a major facelift. Out with the old, in with the sleek and polished designs that are set to redefine its presence in the Web3 universe. It’s not just about looking good; it’s about setting the stage for a brighter future in gaming.
Pixelmon is not simply holding onto its profits; they are investing it in various projects. One such project is Kevin the Adventurer, a game that has already captured the attention of 36,000 users on Base, Coinbase’s Ethereum scaling solution. Kevin, a meme character resembling an ogre, has become the symbol of fun and entertainment in Pixelmon’s world.
But wait, there’s more. PixelPals is on the horizon, mixing pet care with card games, and an updated Pixelmon Arena is in the pipeline. And for those craving something bigger, an open-world RPG called Hunting Grounds is on the drawing board for early 2025.
