Heroes Chained on Immutable zkEVM

In an exciting development for the web3 gaming community, Heroes Chained has recently announced
integration with Immutable zkEVM (Zero-Knowledge Ethereum Virtual Machine), powered by Polygon.
Heroes Chained, a groundbreaking fantasy game featuring a card-based battle system and rich RPG
elements set in the mystical world of Ventuna, has embarked on a significant evolution. Our recent
integration with Immutable zkEVM marks a pivotal milestone in the game’s growth, bringing several
benefits and opportunities to our community and the broader web3 gaming ecosystem.


Why Immutable zkEVM?


Access to a Massive Web3 Gaming Ecosystem


The partnership with Immutable zkEVM places Heroes Chained within one of the most extensive
blockchain gaming ecosystems. Immutable, in collaboration with Polygon, has captured a significant
portion of the blockchain gaming market, approximately 70% according to insights from
@MessariCrypto.

This dominance in the market ensures that Heroes Chained gains exposure to a vast network of
enthusiastic gamers and developers, fostering a vibrant community around our game. The vast
ecosystem not only enhances visibility but also encourages collaboration and cross-pollination of ideas,
driving innovation.

Gas-free Transactions for Gamers

The gas-free-for-gamers initiative of Immutable further attracts more gamers and games. One of the
most significant barriers to blockchain gaming adoption has been the cost associated with gas fees for
transactions. Immutable zkEVM addresses this issue head-on with its gas-free initiative for gamers. By
removing the cost barrier, Heroes Chained becomes more accessible to a broader audience, including
those who may have been hesitant due to the financial implications of gas fees. This approach not only
improves the user experience but also encourages longer play sessions and deeper engagement with the
game.

Embracing Interoperability


Immutable zkEVM, with its commitment to interoperability, provides the perfect infrastructure for such
an endeavor. By integrating with Immutable, Heroes Chained can easily interact with other games on
the platform, like Guild of Guardians, Gods Unchained, and Illuvium. This interoperability enriches the
gaming experience, offering players new avenues to use their assets and achievements in creative and
valuable ways.

Simplifying User Experience with Immutable Passport


The Immutable Passport is a game-changer for web3 gaming, automating the creation of non-custodial
wallets and linking gamers’ social media accounts. This eliminates the traditional hurdles associated with
blockchain gaming, such as remembering passwords or managing wallet keys. The Passport feature is
pivotal for mass adoption, making it straightforward for new users to enter the web3 space and enjoy
Heroes Chained without the usual blockchain complexities.

Comprehensive Developer Tools


Immutable provides an array of developer tools designed to simplify the process of building and
launching games on the zkEVM. These tools are crucial for the Heroes Chained development team, as
they streamline integration, testing, and deployment processes. The ease of development not only
accelerates the go-to-market strategy but also ensures that the game can evolve quickly based on
community feedback and technological advancements.

Preparing for a Multi-chain Future


The web3 vision extends beyond single-chain ecosystems, anticipating a future where multiple
blockchains coexist and interoperate. Immutable zkEVM’s compatibility with the Ethereum Virtual
Machine (EVM) aligns with this vision, enabling Heroes Chained to integrate seamlessly into the global
web3 ecosystem. This forward-thinking approach ensures that Heroes Chained remains at the cutting
edge of blockchain gaming, ready to adapt and grow in a multi-chain environment.

NFT Launch on Immutable


In collaboration with our integration into Immutable zkEVM, Heroes Chained is excited to announce an
innovative approach to our NFT ecosystem. Beyond the ability to trade NFTs within our own
marketplace, players and collectors will have the opportunity to engage with Heroes Chained NFTs
directly on Immutable, leveraging its robust and secure environment. This expansion not only broadens
the accessibility of our NFTs but also taps into Immutable’s vast network of users, enhancing liquidity
and visibility for our digital assets.

Trading on Immutable


Our collaboration with Immutable opens up a new avenue for trading Heroes Chained NFTs.
Immutable’s platform is renowned for its gas-free transactions, providing a seamless and cost-effective
experience for traders. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or new to the world of NFTs, trading on
Immutable ensures that your transactions are secure, fast, and free from the usual blockchain
transaction fees.

Exclusive Campaigns and Crowdsales


To celebrate this milestone, Heroes Chained will be launching several exclusive campaigns and
crowdsales on Immutable. These events will feature unique packs containing rare and powerful items,
heroes, and spells, designed to enhance your adventures in the mystical world of Ventuna. Keep an eye
out for our campaign announcements, as these limited-time offers will provide both new and veteran
players with exciting opportunities to expand their collections and gain an edge in the game.

Seamless Integration and Enhanced Accessibility


The integration with Immutable zkEVM not only signifies a technical achievement but also a strategic
move to make Heroes Chained NFTs more accessible and desirable. By allowing trades on both our
native marketplace and Immutable, we will be providing our community with the flexibility and choice in
how they acquire and trade NFTs. This dual-marketplace approach ensures that whether you’re in it for
the gameplay, the collectible aspect, or both, you’ll have the best possible experience.

Looking Forward

seamless integration of blockchain technology into gaming remains stronger than ever. We’re excited to
