Square Enix, a leading Japanese video game developer and publisher, has joined forces with Polygon to bring fans Symbiogenesis, a Web3 digital collectible art experience. The project relies on the scalability, speed, and security of the Polygon blockchain network to facilitate player transactions. <a href="https://twitter.com/0xPolygon/status/1625871219261308928?s=20">Polygon</a> shared the news on Twitter last February 15. 

Players in Symbiogenesis can gather digital art while navigating a narrative that connects all of the pieces. To progress through the game's several narrative paths, users must look for collectibles depicting a wide cast of characters as they journey around a strange floating continent. 

The developers shared on the<a href="https://twitter.com/symbiogenesisPR/status/1626053760891129858?s=20"> game's official Twitter</a> a preview of the story.

It has multiple endings, and only three players who meet specific criteria will be able to participate in the ultimate "World Mission," which will determine the fate of the world and its inhabitants.

 Symbiogenesis is built on the blockchain from the ground up and will use the Polygon network, which is particularly sustainable due to its carbon-neutral status and provides excellent transaction speeds, minimal gas fees, and overall user-friendliness.

The launch of the project is scheduled for the spring of 2023. Meanwhile, Symbiogenesis' official website and Discord server are scheduled to go live around mid-March of 2023, as announced on their
