The gaming industry is going through a transformative shift – Web3 technologies are introducing new paradigms of user engagement and content creation. One of the projects leading this charge is Weracle, a comprehensive Web3 solution and wallet provider. Having released some impressive Web2 idle RPG hits, such as Endless Frontier and Metal Slug, that generated over 40 million downloads globally, Weracle is now venturing into Web3 with the introduction of Phantom Forge. 

This week Weracle released the official teaser for Phantom Forge, which is available on the company’s website. This AI-powered trading card game (TCG) offers an immersive medieval fantasy experience and also empowers players to become active participants in the game’s development. By utilizing AI tools and the power of community-driven content creation, Phantom Forge is changing the way games are made and enjoyed in the Web3 era.

Empowering User Creativity in Game Development

Phantom Forge places the power of game development in the hands of its users. Using  advanced AI tools, players can create a wide array of content, including artwork, stories, voiceovers, and musical compositions. This approach enhances creativity and ensures a personalized gaming experience. 

The community plays a crucial role, with users voting on the best submissions. The winning content gets integrated into the game, demonstrating the platform’s user-friendly nature and the tangible benefits it offers.

The potential for user-generated content doesn’t stop at artistic contributions. Players can also design new character cards for each game update. The most impressive designs will be transformed into NFTs, allowing users to see their creative ideas become a permanent part of the game. This integration of NFTs means that players can profit from their contributions, fostering a dynamic ecosystem where success and creativity are rewarded.

To engage and expand its community, Weracle plans to launch the official community this month, accompanied by special events where players can contribute to in-game assets using AI technology. This community-centric approach is designed to ensure that the game evolves in line with players’ preferences and creativity.

The integration of Web3 technologies in Phantom Forge goes beyond just user contributions. Players will enjoy true ownership of in-game assets through NFTs, allowing them to trade and monetize their achievements and contributions. This not only adds a new dimension to the gaming experience but also ensures that players benefit directly from their involvement in the game’s development.

The team at Weracle says Phantom Forge will be officially launched in the fourth quarter of 2024 and they will conduct a pre-sale for the inaugural NFT mint. This pre-sale will offer early access to NFTs and exclusive benefits. Detailed announcements about the types of NFTs available, pre-sale dates, and pre-registration to be released soon.
