GUNZ, L1 Blockchain for Triple A Web 3 Gaming

Gunzilla, the developer of the game Off The Grid (OTG), has launched its own Layer 1 EVM-compatible blockchain designed for AAA Web3 gaming. Accordingly, it leverages Avalanche's core infrastructures but operates independently with its own unique validator set.

"GUNZ - a full-featured platform offering blockchain-native infrastructure essential for modern game development. It powers a comprehensive gaming ecosystem with services tailored to the needs of both developers and players."¹


It claims on its Whitepaper that it is the world's first Triple A Web3 ecosystem onboarding both Web2 and Web3 native games, offering a suite of white label products and easy-to-integrate SDKs enabling game studios to launch community-driven economies seamlessly.

It delivers exceptional throughput and minimal latency, achieving sub-second transaction finality averaging around 0.8 seconds and offering theoretical throughput exceeding 4,500 transactions per second (TPS). This makes GUNZ particularly suitable for demanding applications like advanced gaming. GUNZ's consensus mechanism provides remarkable scalability, efficiently supporting thousands of validators.²

Gunz blockchain's core features include the following:

  • In-game wallets
  • P2P Marketplaces
  • Block explorers
  • Token and NFT Minting

The chain is said to have been integrated into OpenSea (NFT marketplace), Fireblocks (custodial wallet), Zealy, and other community engagement platforms. Its testnet is live with over 14 million unique wallets created and over 440 million transactions processed. The mainnet is in its final phase for launching.³

The project received over $120 million in funding from investors like Coinbase Ventures, Animoca Brands, VanEck, Delphi Digital, Justin Kan (founder of Twitch), and others.

The thing is, I have yet to see a triple A game and a big company entering the blockchain gaming... So yea you can develop a lot but ends with nothing

Projects come and go. Hopefully, this one will keep on and provide what it says it will.

If GUNZ maintains that speed at scale, it could significantly impact Web3 gaming performance and I can't wait because if Web 3 gets good with performance and earnings I'll probably quit every job

Let's hope it does. If not, then it will just be another company not making good on its promises. 😬

I don't know too much about the project. Thanks for sharing information. Unfortunately I don't have stablecoins to stake for it nor I have BNB.
