ChainCatcher news, OKX Ventures announced a strategic investment in the next-generation Web3 entertainment platform Matr1x, which aims to attract users through high-quality cyberpunk-themed esports games and has raised approximately $20 million in funding from multiple venture capital firms. Currently, Matr1x is developing a first-person shooter game called Matr1x Fire, featuring CS:GO style and a "battle royale" mode, allowing players to team up and achieve victory. Matr1x Fire incorporates classic Web3 elements such as NFTs that unlock special experiences and rights, with a narrative centered around the conflicts between centralization and decentralization, as well as personal data sovereignty.
Dora Yue, founder of OKX Ventures, stated: "We believe that the rapid adoption and growth of Web3 will be driven by high-quality games and other dApps that combine playability with Web3 technology. The first NFT released by Matr1x Fire in December quickly became one of the hottest collectibles, showcasing its strong appeal within the crypto community. We look forward to the official launch of Matr1x Fire, which could set the standard for games that combine playability with Web3 technology, ushering in a new era of high-quality gaming experiences in 2024."
