The ‘Death Touch’ alpha is set to launch in Q1 ‘25 on SKALE’s
gas-free network
SKALE, the gas-free
invisible blockchain, today announced a partnership with Deadfellaz, a popular Ethereum NFT project, to bring a
genre-defying digital trading card game (TCG) Death
Touch to SKALE.
Set to release in early access during
Q1 ‘25, Death Touch joins as a marquee gaming title in SKALE’s
growing catalog of over 150+ games currently in development on the
network. With over 6,000 unique collectors, Deadfellaz plans to
launch Death Touch with its community at the forefront of a push
into mainstream mobile gaming.
Andrew Saunders, Chief Marketing and Growth
Officer at SKALE Labs, commented on today’s news: “I
couldn’t be more excited to bring iconic web3 IP into the SKALE
ecosystem. As blockchain gaming inevitably continues to grow, it’s
exciting to see projects which are truly building for consumer
adoption vs. brand adoption. Deadfellaz was also my first PFP NFT,
so as a community member of three years, it’s exciting to see
founders I have personally believed in from the start, continue to
build in the right direction.”
Deadfellaz selected SKALE as the home
for Death Touch as its architecture offers the optimal blockchain
experience for gaming projects, with over 45 million unique active
gaming wallets and $8.5 Billion saved in gas fees to date. SKALE's
speed and high-throughput capabilities, via invisible blockchain
underpinning, allow for a gaming experience akin to that of Web2
infrastructure and will be a critical component as SKALE aims to
drive mass adoption of Web3 gaming. SKALE’s distinctive zero-gas
fee anatomy allows Death Touch players not to waste money on
exorbitant transaction fees and to keep the focus primarily on the
gaming experience.
Psych, Co-Founder of Deadfellaz,
added: “Deadfellaz has always been pushing at the forefront of
interactive storytelling & gamification. This set the stage for
our highly-anticipated digital TCG “Deathtouch”, a mobile-first
title, built for fans of the TCG genre wanting something more
exciting & interactive than what they are used to. This
endeavor has been further bolstered by our partnership with SKALE,
as their gas-free structure will enable us to grow this F2P title
in a way that makes sense for our web3 gamers, competitive gamers
& the average casual gamer.”
Today’s news comes on the heels of
SKALE’s partnership announcement with Atari and Pong founder, Nolan
Bushnell, as he seeks to build his next gaming venture on SKALE.
With more than 150 projects currently being developed and released
on SKALE, the chain has quickly become a leading player in the web3
gaming space.
More information about Death Touch will
be available closer to its launch in early 2025. For more
