Binance Labs announced it co-led a $6.6 million seed funding round for Fusionist, a Web3 gaming company, along with Web2 gaming giant FunPlus in May 2022.
Fusionist is creating a scalable multi-game ecosystem built on Unity that aims to provide high-quality AAA gameplay to its Web3 gaming community. Games will initially launch on the BNB Chain before expanding to other Layer 1 networks. Fusionist has grown its community to 800,000 members within five months, following the successful launch of 3 NFT series and current Beta testing on the video game distribution platform, Steam.
Fusionist CEO, Ike T, said: “We are delighted to have Binance Labs join us as an investor and strategic partner. With the support of one of the industry leaders, we can further raise the bar for what Fusionist can achieve in the future.”
The money raised will be used to accelerate game development and build the Endurance Mainnet ecosystem, which will be introduced in January 2023. In addition, Fusionist plans to strengthen user development and recruit top Web3 and game professionals.
