Skale Labs has partnered with DFZ Labs to create a pioneering mobile trading card game (TCG) called Death Touch. This collaboration marks a strategic step, leveraging the popularity of the Deadfellaz NFT collection and Skale’s gas-free blockchain infrastructure.
Death Touch: A New Era for Mobile TCGs
Set to launch in Q1 2025, Death Touch aims to bridge the gap between traditional gaming and blockchain technology. By focusing on mobile accessibility, the game is positioned to attract a wide range of users, from seasoned blockchain enthusiasts to casual gamers new to the Web3 space.
Andrew Saunders, Chief Marketing and Growth Officer at Skale Labs, emphasized the importance of this partnership:
“Integrating the Deadfellaz franchise within the Skale ecosystem aligns with our mission to prioritize consumer-friendly applications of blockchain.”
The Deadfellaz Legacy
The Deadfellaz NFT collection, which debuted on Ethereum in August 2021, quickly gained traction thanks to its unique themes and high-profile endorsements. Co-founders Psych and Betty created a strong community around their digital collectibles, setting the stage for their expansion into interactive gaming experiences.
Psych, co-founder of Deadfellaz, shared his vision for Death Touch:
“We aim to offer a more dynamic and engaging experience for fans seeking fresh interactions within the TCG space. Partnering with Skale will enable Death Touch to grow as a free-to-play title, providing a seamless experience for both Web3 gamers and traditional gamers.”
This approach demonstrates DFZ Labs’ commitment to evolving their brand while catering to a broader audience.
Skale’s Growing Gaming Ecosystem
Skale Labs has been steadily building its presence in the blockchain gaming sector, with over 150 games currently in various stages of development within its ecosystem. The collaboration with DFZ Labs is just one of several strategic partnerships aimed at enhancing Skale’s offerings.
Recently, Skale also announced a collaboration with gaming pioneer Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari. Bushnell’s gaming tournament platform, Moxy, is set to integrate with Skale’s infrastructure, further expanding the potential for competitive and casual gaming experiences on the blockchain.
