Pudgy Penguins Enters Mobile Gaming Market with Pudgy Party
Pudgy Penguins, the Ethereum NFT collection that has expanded into a successful toy line, is now making its way into the mobile gaming market with the upcoming release of Pudgy Party. Developed in partnership with Mythical Games, Pudgy Party is set to launch globally on iOS and Android platforms in 2025.
Unlike traditional battle royale games like Fall Guys, Pudgy Party will emphasize teamwork and shared rewards in a lively and accessible setting. CEO Luca Netz expressed excitement about the new venture, stating, “Our goal is to create a welcoming and joyful environment where players can come together and have fun.”
Players can look forward to engaging gameplay elements such as navigating obstacles, forming collection strategies, and competing or cooperating with others. The game will also offer customization options for penguin characters and a progression system from beginner to advanced levels.
Earlier this year, Pudgy Penguins and Mythical Games revealed plans to launch a mobile game on the Mythos Chain in 2025, a blockchain network based on Polkadot. While specific details about the blockchain integration for Pudgy Party have not been disclosed, it is confirmed that the game will be built on Mythos.
The Pudgy Penguins brand has consistently incorporated blockchain technology into its expansion efforts. For instance, the plush toys and figurines now available at major retailers like Target and Walmart come with codes that allow buyers to redeem free NFT customization items for the previous game, Pudgy World, on the Ethereum layer-2 network zkSync.
Mythical Games, known for NFT titles such as NFL Rivals and Blankos Block Party, is the developer behind Pudgy Party. As the mobile gaming market continues to evolve, the collaboration between Pudgy Penguins and Mythical Games aims to offer players a unique and engaging experience in the world of blockchain gaming.
