We focus on players’ motivation, enjoyment, and secured transaction games. Our partnership with Immutable X will be pivotal for us to bring our gaming vision into reality.”
Mantisco shares the company’s vision with these sentences:
“[Our vision is] to give our community excitement and fun factors through stylish, action-packed combat, engaging in-game scenarios, and various opportunities for users to progress their skills, competing against each other while enjoying true ownership of in-game assets.”
Hunter’s Arena: Legends carries the mantle of being the first Korean game with a total of 12 million downloads that was launched both on PlayStation 4 and 5. The game was launched on Steam back in 2020 and received mixed reviews (62% positive) from a total of 931 users.
