The company stated that the acquisition is a significant milestone for Mythical Games, with DMarket’s tech facilitating the most advanced trading platform for digital assets. Mythical is now the world’s second-largest processor of digital assets on a distributed ledger after the Ethereum mainnet.
John Linden, Co-Founder and CEO of Mythical Games, commented:
“We founded Mythical Games in 2018 with the idea of ushering in both the next generation of gaming and the next generation of gamers. Half a decade later, we’re continuing to do just that. Mythical’s Marketplace 2.0 was designed to not only enhance our platform but, more importantly, improve the player experience and set the standard for the future of gaming.
“All too often, developers tout features as “seamless” and “integrated” when discussing gaming or metaverse projects. In reality, these solutions are still very complicated and not made for gamers. But with these monumental steps forward, Mythical will provide users with an experience that delivers on both.”
Co-Founder and CEO of DMarket, Vlad Panchenko, added:
“The new horizons of the gaming space have always been the main focus for DMarket. We’re excited to become a part of Mythical Games’ work to reduce barriers to entry for innovative game developers and thriving new economies. We share a vision of how the industry will evolve and how we all can contribute and bring more fun to the gaming community worldwide.”
According to the press release, Mythical’s Marketplace 2.0 has fully integrated DMarket’s technology to feature principles of its blended payment gateway, featuring a powerful AML (anti-money laundering) and anti-fraud protection system.
With Marketplace 2.0, Mythical aims to provide a frictionless user experience that enables peer-to-peer transactions and empowerment for gamers looking to participate in the play-and-own gaming economies of the future.
