Blockchain-based game TOKYO BEAST has achieved a major milestone, surpassing 300,000 downloads and generating $1m (~£738,000) in revenue within just 48 hours of its global launch.
These earnings combine proceeds from both its Special Early Access event and official release.
A Four-Year Development with a $20m Budget
Set in a futuristic Tokyo (2124), the game allows players to collect, breed, and battle digital creatures called BEASTs—unique blockchain-based assets (NFTs). These are used in a virtual sport called XENO-Karate, where strategic team-building determines the winner.
After four years in development and backed by a $20m (~£14.7m) budget, TOKYO BEAST merges traditional gaming appeal with blockchain innovation.
While free-to-play, it features Tokyo Games Token (TGT), an in-game cryptocurrency for upgrades, breeding and its unique prediction market where players bet on match results.
TOKYO BEAST appeals to two different audiences. Casual players enjoy its competitive gameplay, while blockchain enthusiasts are drawn to its earning potential through tournaments and NFT trading.
The game’s success follows over one million pre-registrations, unlocking its $1m Gaming Championship with a prize pool of ¥150 million (approximately $1 million in TGT tokens).
TOKYO BEAST runs on Immutable, one of the fastest-growing blockchain platforms for Web3 gaming.
The ecosystem has already onboarded over 500 games and boasts a rapidly expanding community of 4m users. Immutable powers major titles like the tactical card game Gods Unchained, the expansive MMORPG RavenQuest, and the mobile RPG Guild of Guardians.
