We’re thrilled to share that we passed Google Play Store review! We've worked closely with the Play Store over the past year, sharing our learnings as the leading web3 game developer. This culminated in Origins passing a completely transparent review process - we believe it to be the first web3 game to do so.
Thank you to the trailblazing team at Google for working with us to take this groundbreaking step together.
Bringing Axie to Google
Axie is more than a game: we’re a powerful worldwide movement. This is an important step towards a world where everyone knows where to access the magic of Axie.
Step by Step
We plan to soft launch Origins in the Malaysian Play Store first. This gives our team the opportunity to continue testing and improving the game. As part of this strategy to “dip our toes” into markets to gather data and iterate, we will also be launching Origins in smaller countries that mirror the demographics and player archetypes of regions such as North/South America, Europe, and East Asia. This will allow us to make Origins even better by the time it starts going live in other countries for maximum effect.
The early Play Store versions of the app will have limited features. For example, players will not be able to earn tokens, in compliance with current Play Store policies. Of course, we remain committed to our vision of a player-owner digital nation, and will continue working with app platforms to unlock that in our builds. This is the first step towards opening our doors to a new generation of Lunacians.
Final Thoughts
Thank you to our outstanding community for pushing the boundaries of gaming with us. We will share updates with you as we continue to explore Axie’s infinite possibilities.
This is one small step for Axie Infinity, and one giant leap for the future of Web3 games.
