Turnt Gaming a developer of interactive NFT-based entertainment products and media, today announced collaborations with Polygon Studios Polygon's gamingNFT arm designed to facilitate web 3.0 integration, and Esports Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: EBET), a leading global provider of advanced esports wagering products. These two collaborations serve as key pillars for Taunt Battleworld, a skill-based fighting game simulator featuring legendary boxing icons Floyd Mayweather and Deontay Wilder targeted to release in early 2022.
The introduction of Taunt Battleworld marks a new generation in gaming by being the first to combine multiple ways to play with its new "engage to earn" model.
- Play-to-Earn: Players can enter their NFTs into simulated fights and the most skilled players have a higher chance of winning.
- Watch-to-Earn: Viewers earn in-game currency for watching fight streams and being a valued part of the community.
- Predict-to-Earn: Spectators can compete with other viewers to predict outcomes of the simulated fights and win in-game currency, for free.
Shreyansh Singh, CEO of Polygon Studios, said: "Turnt Gaming is forging ahead with a disruptive model for NFT-based gaming that offer players a new way to reward and engage their community. We are excited to be part of that solution. The combination of Polygon's leading blockchain solution and support from our studios' program will allow Turnt's innovative "engage to earn" model to deliver entertainment and long-term value to the community."
In addition, Taunt Battleword will combine live in-game data and events with the power of Esports Technologies' unique predictive gaming platform to create new gaming products and 2nd screen experiences for players around the world.
