During the recent Wemix Day event, South Korean gaming company Wemade unveiled several significant updates to its Wemix platform, including the introduction of Wemix Pay, a new payment system, and the PLAY token, an in-game currency. These developments aim to enhance user engagement and economic sustainability within the platform.
Additionally, Wemade announced a strategic shift towards fewer, high-quality games, with upcoming titles such as Legend of Ymir and Project M. The company also plans to launch Wepublic, a voting and donation system, in 2025 to support charitable organizations through community engagement.

Wemix Pay is a new payment system set to launch in the second half of 2024. It will reward users with Prime Points, which can be used to access VIP passes, NFTs, and airdrops. Wemix Pay will be integrated into major Wemix Play games, enhancing utility and demand within the platform.
The PLAY token will be tied to actual in-game revenue and will be minted only when users engage with Wemix Pay. It will be required for purchasing certain items in games such as Night Crows. To prevent inflation, PLAY tokens will be burned after use. Users can earn PLAY tokens alongside Prime Points through Wemix Pay.

Wemade announced a strategic shift towards developing fewer, high-quality games. New titles include Legend of Ymir, a web3-native game, and Project M, an MMORPG from the developers of Mir4. These games are expected to release in late 2025 and 2026. Additionally, RPG Crystal of Naramunz will launch on Wemix in early 2025, and Meta Toy DragonZ Saga will migrate from Immutable.

All games in the upcoming lineup will integrate WEMIX Pay. The use of WEMIX Pay within these games will support WEMIX Buy-Back resources, contributing to a healthier ecosystem.
