Polygon Studios Announces Official Strategic Partnership with Poriverse

Published

on

March 2nd, 2022, Polygon (formerly MATIC) – one of the leading blockchain ecosystems, along with their NFT and blockchain gaming arm, Polygon Studios, has just announced their strategic partnership with an NFT Game named Poriverse – the first NFT Game allows players to lend and trade NFT to earn more. This partnership is expected to open a new chapter for the NFT Game industry. 

SINGAPORE, March 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The NFT Game with play-to-earn (P2E) concept has soared in 2021 which has increased the numbers of crypto gamers around the world. However, this “gold rush” has posed new challenges for NFT Game players due to increasingly high initial investment which makes it hard for newbie gamers with low-budget to start. Poriverse provides an innovative solution to solve that problem effectively for creating more value to communities, by taking advantage of NFT and blockchain technology. 

First time NFT Game players are allowed to put their NFTs for rent and lend NFTs among each other to earn more money. The cost of entry would be lowered for not only experienced crypto gamers, NFTs holders who want to diversify their portfolio, but also newcomers in the P2E market. PORI supports NFT renting technology, which ensures NFTs renting is fair and secure, eliminating the risk of losing ownership of for-rent NFTs. Users have to pay a rental fee at the negotiated price on the marketplace, yet all of the revenue generated by the rental NFT will belong to them. 

Poriverse originated with NFTs system as Porian pieces and classes, which allows gamers to not only purchase but to strategically grow their own Porian NFTs. Winning opportunities are designed with fairness among gamers through random renting of unique Porians for higher value Porians breeding with a DAO-oriented lending protocol technology. 

To assist in the promotion of their rental platform for NFT gaming assets, Poriverse has entered a partnership with Polygon Studios, Polygon’s NFT, metaverse, and gaming arm. Through this venture, Polygon Studios will help to highlight the benefits Poriverse is bringing to crypto gamers.

“We aim to create a game that brings sustainable benefits in both financial and entertainment. Once players enter Poriverse, they will experience the 3D high-interactive world with simple but fun gameplay. PORI is created with a straightforward principle: Community is the winner. All designed mechanics in our game are for every user to earn and win better, with a great amount of fairness.
