Digital Entertainment Asset (DEA), a Web3 entertainment company, has announced the launch of Lost Archive +, a play-to-earn (P2E) NFT game on the PlayMining GameFi platform. The game, which combines deck building with strategic placement on a game board, is set to launch in late May.
A presale for the Lost Archive + NFT collection will begin in late April on the PlayMining NFT marketplace.
Lost Archive + will join PlayMining’s growing catalog of P2E games, including Job Tribes, Cookin’ Burger, Menya Dragon Ramen, Graffiti Racer and Lucky Farmer.
The games allow players to earn PlayMining’s DEAPcoin ($DEP) through gameplay, which can be used to purchase game utility NFTs and traded on popular exchanges such as OKX, Gate.io, Uniswap, Bitmart, and Bitrue.
The game features collectible NFT cards that reflect a game setting that interweaves sword and sorcery with technology across three separate and distinct superpowers: Ardbeg, Kalila, and Port Ellen. Players use these cards to battle against other players or story mode NPCs.
By incorporating NFTs in a battle deck, players can earn more DEP by increasing both stamina and the number of acquired battle points.
Lost Archive + was developed by Clover Lab, Inc., a Japanese game studio that has been building successful games since 2009. By launching Lost Archive + on the PlayMining GameFi platform, Clover Lab is able to claim most of the value their game creates, including royalties from NFTs sold on the PlayMining NFT marketplace.
DEA mentioned in a press release shared with AlexaBlockchain that the gaming firm is committed to championing “GameFi-for-Good” to make a social impact. The company said that it is keen to partner with experienced game developers to launch on their platform, giving third-party game developers a leg up by providing a fair and transparent platform that offers in-house IP monetization options.
“We are strongly committed to building value for our platform and sure that Lost Archive + will be a hit with our PlayMining community of over 2.7 million people,” said PlayMining co-founder and co-CEO Kozo Yamada.
Resonating with its social impact motto, DEA recently teamed up with Greenway Grid Global to create a Play-to-Earn (P2E) game that rewards players for inspecting physical infrastructure in their towns. Players will receive P2E tokens for making real-life social contributions while having fun playing the video game.
Lost Archive + is expected to be a popular addition to the growing P2E game market, and it is hoped that it will help make a social impact through the company’s GameFi-for-Good initiative.
