We're proud to announce CoinFund has co-led Gunzilla Games' recent $10M strategic financing round with Blizzard Fund as Gunzilla nears the global multiplatform launch of “Off The Grid,” which will settle on-chain on a performant, purpose-built Avalanche subnet. The feeling was palpable at GDC this year that gaming is rife for disruption, seeking novel approaches to capture value. We believe the vertical is poised for transformative convergence with blockchain technology imminently. Welcome to the onchain, in-game economy 🎮 Within the first few seconds of the trailer for Gunzilla's “Off the Grid”, visual fidelity, attention to detail, and immersive worldbuilding is clear as players find themselves thrown into a covert corporate war between three gaming companies on the tropical dystopia of Teardrop Island, fighting to survive.
