Four prominent blockchain gaming startups—Yield Guild Games (YGG), Game7, Magic Eden, and Fenix Games—have banded together to form the <a href="http://www.web3gc.org">Web3 Games Collective (W3GC)</a>, according to a <a href="https://venturebeat.com/games/blockchain-game-startups-for-web3-games-collective">report by Venture Beat</a>. The collective's goal is to accelerate the adoption of high-quality web3 games and provide better distribution methods while ensuring long-term growth. To achieve this goal, the founders plan to pool their expertise and resources.

<a href="https://tingbits.com/post/game7">Game7</a> is notable for its project financing initiatives to incentivize innovation. <a href="https://tingbits.com/post/ygg-rebrand">YGG</a> is a pioneer in developing web3 game communities and supports player liquidity. <a href="https://tingbits.com/post/magic-eden-web3-investment">Magic Eden</a> operates a game-focused marketplace designed to help players discover new content. While <a href="https://www.fenixgames.com">Fenix Games</a> offers its expertise in game publishing to help game developers de-risk their go-to-market methods.

Steven Chen, a core contributor at Game7, intends to propel the blockchain games sector forward by expanding infrastructure investment and introducing more high-quality games and intellectual property. He believes these are necessary, as seen by PC, console, and mobile gaming.

Gabby Dizon, the co-founder of YGG, also emphasized that the onboarding method is far too complex compared to platforms such as Xbox or Apple App Store. There are 3 billion gamers globally. However, only one million unique active wallets interact with blockchain games, according to Dappradar. This figure represents only a tiny part of the potential user base. Therefore, there is still a lot of work to be done until these figures match. Dizon noted that YGG's collaboration with a DAO like Game7 and a game publisher like Fenix Games can simplify the landscape and foster mass adoption.

Rudy Koch, the co-founder of Fenix Games, stated that finding and scaling blockchain's first mega-hits is a significant milestone. He stated that popular titles such as Clash of Clans aided mobile gaming's rise. He hoped that they would have similar success with Web3. For this mission, they are "looking for top-tier game developers who are interested in Web3."

Furthermore, Magic Eden's Chief Gaming Officer, Chris Akhavan, stated that the alliance believes web3 has a lot of promise for game developers, athletes, and content creators. This could open new opportunities for them in the future.

He recognizes that there are still many opportunities for progress within the web3 gaming field. He believes that W3GC will fuel the success of pioneering game companies through its launchpad, marketplace, and marketing channels.
