Dante Games Raises Ahead of TGE

Dante Games, a studio focused on AI-powered blockchain gaming, has announced the completion of a funding round led by Rollman Management. The news comes just days before the token generation event (TGE) for its $DANTE token, scheduled to take place on July 22. The funding will be used to support the development of Dante’s AI systems, expand its game offerings, and strengthen its infrastructure in preparation for the token launch.

Rollman Management will not only serve as the lead investor but also act as a strategic partner in Dante’s next stage of development. This partnership adds financial support and operational guidance while reinforcing Dante’s position in the evolving web3 gaming sector. Prior to this round, Dante had remained self-funded for more than three years, raising a modest $1.67 million in earlier stages. The latest investment represents a major step forward in the studio’s growth strategy.

Free-to-Play Strategy Card RPG

The newly secured funds will be directed toward key areas of Dante’s platform. A significant portion of the investment will be used to enhance the company’s AI game agent tools. These tools are designed to improve player-versus-player and player-versus-environment experiences by enabling smarter non-player characters, dynamic difficulty adjustments, and AI-powered reward systems.

The funding will also support the continued development of Dante’s first major title, Hellmaster, a free-to-play strategy card RPG. The game, which combines card-based mechanics with role-playing features, is currently in open beta and has seen more than 16,000 daily matches. The full release is planned for later this year and is expected to serve as the flagship title of the Dante gaming network. Two additional titles, Eternal Fighters and Infernal Bastions, are also in development and will be supported by this round of funding.

Cross-Chain Support and AI-Focused Layer 1

Dante Games is working to expand its presence in the web3 ecosystem through deeper blockchain integrations and cross-chain support. The studio currently partners with platforms such as Immutable, Polygon, AVAX, and Beam, and is also exploring the launch of its own AI-focused Layer 1 blockchain. These integrations are intended to provide greater flexibility for players and developers, while also laying the groundwork for long-term scalability.

The upcoming TGE is a significant milestone in Dante’s roadmap. The $DANTE token will be launched on MEXC and the Immutable zkEVM chain on July 22. The token will have multiple functions within the Dante ecosystem, including enabling access to PvP matches, purchasing NFTs, joining tournaments, and unlocking development tools. A dedicated web application will be launched to support token staking, claims, and vesting. This release is expected to simplify user interaction with the platform and improve overall accessibility.

Hellmaster on Epic Games Store

Hellmaster has played a central role in Dante’s development. Since its launch, the title has gained visibility on platforms such as Elixir, Ultra, and the Epic Games Store, and now maintains an active user base of over 15,000 players. The game allows users to progress through multiple levels by collecting and battling with Souls, with rewards linked to the $DANTE token.

To coincide with the TGE, Dante will host a competitive tournament series offering more than $100,000 in total prizes. Participation will require staking the $DANTE token, providing an added layer of utility for holders. This tournament aims to attract new users, support player engagement, and highlight the token’s functionality within the ecosystem.

AI Tools for Developers and Players

One of Dante’s distinguishing features is its custom AI layer. This technology enables players and creators to build, control, and optimize in-game agents. The AI system also manages aspects such as game logic, economy tools, matchmaking, and behavior tracking. Developers can use these tools to design custom experiences, while players will be able to spend $DANTE tokens to upgrade AI agents or access enhanced gameplay options. Broader beta access for these features is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2025.

Long-Term Vision and Multi-Chain Strategy

Dante Games has outlined a post-TGE roadmap focused on sustained growth and technical development. In the third quarter of 2025, the studio will launch a new NFT collection, release its staking application, and roll out its TGE tournament series.

Further down the line, Dante plans to expand its exchange listings, introduce more AI functionalities, and enable full cross-chain gameplay. The studio’s long-term strategy includes the launch of its own Layer 1 blockchain tailored for AI-driven gaming, a move that aligns with its goal of building a scalable and efficient infrastructure.

Recent partnerships, such as the integration with Myria, further support Dante’s goal of bridging web2 and web3 gaming communities. Through this collaboration, Hellmaster has been added to the Myria ecosystem, allowing it to reach a broader audience and access development support tools.
