The Epic Games Store will host its first web3 game, the wild West-themed gunslinger game Grit, the game’s publisher Gala Games has announced.
The company described Grit as a ride-or-die battle royale set in the Wild West.
In it, players face off in showdowns and shootouts, and different modes allow for teaming up with other players and squads.
The game will become available to players later this year and marks another attempt by web3 gaming developers to go mainstream.
While Epic’s CEO Tim Sweeney has said he is open to web3 gaming, competitor Valve banned games that use blockchain technology on its distribution platform Steam last year.
However, John Osvald, president of games at Gala Games, hopes that its titles being available on Epic will bring legitimacy to web3 gaming.
