Details of Partnership

Arbitrum has garnered attention in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space for its cost-effective transactions and rapid transfer velocities, ranking fifth in total value locked (TVL) within the DeFi realm. Delabs Games, known for its innovative approach to gaming, plans to leverage Arbitrum’s technology to optimize its upcoming titles and improve overall gaming infrastructure.

Among the titles earmarked for migration to the Arbitrum platform are Metabolts and Space Frontier, two highly anticipated web3 games currently in development by Delabs Games. Additionally, Rumble Racing Star (RRS), a multiplayer racing sensation recently launched by Delabs, is also set to make the transition to Arbitrum.

Blockchain Gaming IPs

Delabs Games is gearing up for the launch of its web3 gaming services in the latter half of the year. Space Frontier, a space refugee survival game currently in development, promises players an immersive experience where they can undertake planet development, engage in battles, and strive for survival.

Another exciting project in the pipeline is Metabolts, a collectible role-playing game (RPG) from the creators of the acclaimed 'King’s Raid'. With unique characters and renowned Japanese voice actors onboard, Metabolts aims to deliver an unforgettable gaming experience to players.

Arbitrum's Advanced Solutions For Web3 Gaming

CEO of Delabs Games, Joonmo Kwon, expressed excitement about the collaboration, praising Arbitrum's Ethereum Layer 2 technology and its potential to revolutionize web3 gaming. Kwon emphasized the company's dedication to providing unparalleled accessibility and cutting-edge experiences to its gaming community.

Nina Rong, Head of Ecosystem Development at Arbitrum Foundation, echoed Kwon's sentiments, highlighting the shared vision of invigorating the web3 gaming landscape. Rong emphasized the collaborative effort between Arbitrum and Delabs Games to create a premier ecosystem for web3 gaming, powered by Arbitrum's advanced solutions.

$12 Funding and Token

Delabs is the well-known web3 arm of South Korean game studio 4:33. The company is actively working on various web3 IPs and blockchain gaming projects. The team recently closed a funding round, bringing its total raised to $12 million to date. The achievement comes after Delabs' much-anticipated kart racing game, Rumble Racing Star, passed a successful invite-only playtest.

The team also recently released their whitepaper v1 and teased their $DELABS token launch. Polygon Ventures, an investor in Delabs, expressed confidence in the company's vision, stating: "The team is combining traditional gameplay with the dynamic potential of web3." 

Growing Gaming Portfolio

Having previously secured $4.7 million in seed funding, led by Hashed, Delabs is positioned to expand its footprint in the web3 gaming space. The company's portfolio includes the three aforementioned titles in development: Rumble Racing Star (RRS), Space Frontier, and Metabolts – each catering to diverse gaming preferences and audiences.

Delabs's design philosophy prioritizes wide audience appeal, cross-platform compatibility, and the cultivation of a vibrant esports ecosystem. The integration of web3 elements is seamless, ensuring players don't need to download any additional wallets.

Comprising industry veterans, including those who contributed to Nexon's hit game Kart Rider, Delabs seeks to recreate that magic in their upcoming titles. The emphasis on inclusivity is evident in Rumble Racing Star (RRS), featuring expressive characters, humor-infused weapons, and a visually lighter style compared to traditional racing games like Mario Kart.

In Rumble Racing Star (RRS), players can race with their NFTs, each possessing unique abilities. Space Frontier and Metabolts offer players creative control, allowing them to shape aspects of the game such as items, modes, and levels.

How To Earn Points in RRS?

Players can earn points and collect star badges through daily and weekly missions within Rumble Racing Star (RRS), all contributing to RRS points. These RRS points will then be converted to Leaf Points at a ratio of 1:3.

Moreover, participants can accrue additional points by performing daily check-ins if they hold Adventure Pass NFTs or Metabolts NFTs. Furthermore, players will receive rewards in Delabs' upcoming $GAME token, slated for release in June 2024.

The airdrop campaign marks a significant milestone for Delabs as it seeks to foster community engagement and anticipation for its forthcoming $GAME token release, promising an immersive gaming experience for players worldwide.

Final Thoughts

As Delabs Games continues to push the boundaries of web3 gaming, its partnership with Arbitrum signifies a significant step toward realizing its vision of delivering cutting-edge gaming experiences to a global audience. With promising titles on the horizon and the backing of innovative technology, the future looks bright for Delabs Games and its community of gamers.
