Darkbright Studios Secures $6M for Web3 Gaming Venture
Darkbright Studios, a rising name in the blockchain gaming space, announced a successful $6 million seed funding round on September 24, 2024. The round was oversubscribed, signaling strong investor confidence in the studio’s vision. The financing was led by Bitkraft Ventures, with other key players like Treasure, Play Ventures, Anthos Capital, and King River Capital also joining in.
The funds will be directed towards developing Darkbright’s highly anticipated life simulation game, Smolbound, which blends elements of role-playing and life simulation in a player-driven world. What sets Smolbound apart is its seamless integration of Web3 technology, a core feature of the gaming experience.
A New Kind of Life Simulation: Smolbound
Smolbound is not your average simulation game. Darkbright Studios envisions it as a hybrid of RPG and simulation, where players are not only immersed in a life-like environment but also have control over the world around them. Powered by blockchain technology, Smolbound aims to create a player-driven universe where players can influence the economy, trade digital assets, and take ownership of in-game content, all secured through the blockchain.
