As blockchain games gain wider adoption, three out of four game developers expect to work on Web3 game projects in the future, according to a recent survey.
Blockchain entertainment firm Coda Labs commissioned a survey targeting game developers to take a look at their thoughts on Web3. The researchers found that the majority of respondents believe that Web3 games are on the way to their companies, and 75% expect to work on Web3 projects in the future.
Apart from this, more than half of the survey participants believe that Web3 will revolutionize the gaming industry. Forty percent anticipate that the Web3 implementation will bring in more new users, while 36% believe that Web3 integration will allow games to better retain users.
Sekip Can Gökalp, Founder and CEO of Coda Labs, commented on the survey results, noting that while the potential of Web3 games is debated, the benefits for developers are clear. He explained:
“This survey shows that the majority of developers have already jumped right into developing Web3 games, driven by benefits like additional funding, new revenue streams, and player retention.”
In addition to gaining new users and retaining them, many developers also recognize that Web3 provides new sources of revenue. 47% of survey participants highlighted Non-Fungible Token (NFT) sales as one of the main benefits of Web3, while 43% believe in crypto tokens as a source of additional revenue.
However, not everyone is convinced that Web3 is here to stay. The survey results also show that 32% of the participants think that Web3 games are just a fad and won’t be around for long.
