Kingdom Labs announced that it has partnered with GGWP.ID in a bid to bring Web3 games into the competitive esports scene in Southeast Asia.

Kingdom Labs, a venture studio that incubates and invests in Web 3.0 projects, announced that it has partnered with GGWP.ID to push Web3 games into the competitive esports scene in Southeast Asia.

GGWP.ID is Indonesia's leading multi-platform esports company, with over 6 million monthly visitors. 

According to the press release shared with Cryptowisser, the platform hosts daily tournaments for games such as Dota 2, Apex Legends, and League of Legends. To start the collaboration, Kingdom Labs and GGWP.ID will launch streaming and tournaments for Kingdomverse and Purraria.  

Kingdomverse is a “Mobile Games Metaverse” that allows players to play across multiple mobile titles and bring their NFT items and characters back into a social hub. 

The team said the first title, Defend the Kingdom, is a casual Tower Defence game. Players form teams of five heroes called “Legends” against waves of enemies in either a competitive or cooperative mode. 

They added that the game’s economy and characters link back to the wider game ecosystem of Kingdomverse, and items can be utilized back in the metaverse. 

The partnership between the two entities will see GGWP.ID incubate a game-fi project called Purraria. Bridging Web2 gamers with Web3 technological advantage, Purraria will lead to a Gamer’s Utopia, a safe ecosystem where gamers can make a living and support themselves by doing things they love, playing games.

The team explained that Purraria is an NFT-based PVP Tower Defense Battle that is designed to bring the Play-for-Fun and esports aspects into Web3. The game allows players to join and play without any initial investment. Hence, allowing them to focus on strategizing and outplaying the opponent in a competitive 1v1 fashion. Adopting a casual esports approach, Purraria is a competitive game that is easy to learn, with 3 minutes maximum time per match

The team further revealed that the development of Purraria is currently underway by GGWP.ID with the support of Kingdom Labs to encourage a smoother transition of Web 2.0 game experience into Web 3.0. 

The partnership is expected to open up a long-term strategic partnership not only between Kingdom Labs and GGWP.ID, but also between the game, Kingdomverse and Purraria, in the future.

Kingdom Labs stated that the partnership demonstrates that a casual mobile-metaverse ecosystem can work well with a comprehensive gaming experience, inspiring both Web2 and Web3 gaming industries. 

Kingdom Labs also revealed that the game tournament would be live-streamed among GGWP.ID’s 6 million monthly active users. 

Kingdom Labs is a venture studio that focuses on incubating and investing in the most disruptive Web 3 companies. The company also partners with traditional Web 2.0 companies to help them venture to build or bridge their businesses into Web 3.0. Kingdom Labs have incubated and invested in several projects, including Kingdomverse, Worldspark Studios, Monkey Kingdom, and Purraria.
