Amazon Prime Gaming and WAX Partner to Bring Web3 Games to Global Audience

Amazon Prime Gaming Partners with WAX

Amazon Prime Gaming, a gaming platform associated with Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN), has joined forces with Worldwide Asset Exchange (WAX), a decentralized marketplace for trading virtual assets in video games. This collaboration aims to introduce Amazon Prime Gaming’s vast user base to the Web3 gaming ecosystem powered by WAX. The initial game set for this partnership is Brawlers, which will serve as a testing ground for their joint efforts.

Brawlers: The First Wrestling-Themed NFT Game

Brawlers, developed by WAX Studios, stands out as the first wrestling-themed NFT game utilizing blockchain technology. In this game, NFT-based wrestlers compete in matches, with victors receiving rewards. Players can choose from a variety of unique characters, including the nimble Iron Pole, the formidable Crocodile Dundalk, and the relentless Juggernaut. The game features its own token, Brawlers (BRWL), which players can use to compete against others. Additionally, players can buy card packs, allowing them to engage with others while maintaining complete ownership of their assets for trading.

Exclusive In-Game Benefits for Amazon Prime Members

Through its partnership with WAX, Amazon Prime Gaming users will gain access to special in-game items, enhancing their experience within the Brawlerverse. This will also include real-world merchandise from game partners like Tyranno Studios. Users who connect their Amazon Prime accounts to Brawlers will be eligible for monthly physical rewards, further incentivizing participation.

WAX’s Market Performance Following the Announcement

In the wake of this announcement, WAX’s native cryptocurrency, WAXP, experienced a rise, reaching $0.0547 on Thursday, despite a general decline of 0.68% in the broader cryptocurrency market. As of now, WAXP has gained 12.83%, trading at $0.0587 per token. Although this is significantly lower than its peak of $5.01 in December 2016, it surpasses its all-time low of $0.0159 from December 2019. Over the past week, analysts have given WAX a bullish outlook, with some predicting that WAXP could reach a maximum price of $0.095 in 2024, averaging around $0.16. By 2030, forecasts suggest WAXP could potentially trade as high as $0.87.
