AWS and Immutable partnering to drive large-scale global adoption of web3 gaming
This innovation, which uses blockchain technology to enable players to own and trade gaming assets, has already taken hold. Those in the know estimate about 100 million people worldwide will participate in web3 gaming in the next two years.
The web3 gaming partnership will allow Immutable to gain access to expert resources and secure prospective gamers. The companies envision that it would result in agreements with major studios.
Associated Immutable web3 gaming projects will also be able to enrol in AWS Activate, a scheme that supports startups with credits, technical support, training, and resources. Participants in this programme will receive $100,000 in AWS credits to establish AWS infrastructure while harnessing Immutable’s tools to build, launch, and grow original web3 games.
