Mythical Games Advances with World ID
Mythical Games has recently unveiled its latest strategic move by launching the first layer 3 blockchain through an alliance with World Chain. This partnership marks a significant step towards integrating advanced human verification technology to enhance gaming security and fairness.
Technological Integration and Its Impacts
MYTHOS by Mythical Games on World Chain is designed to leverage World’s Ethereum-based layer 2 solutions. The integration will primarily utilize World ID, World’s proof-of-human technology, to create a more equitable ecosystem for features such as matchmaking, leaderboards, and rewards within games. This could potentially prioritize transactions from verified human users and even reduce the associated costs.
Mythical Games CEO John Linden elaborated on the objectives of this integration: “Our goal is to make every player – whether in FIFA Rivals, Pudgy Party, or NFL Rivals – part of a verified global economy where digital ownership and fair play are guaranteed. By integrating World ID, we can connect millions of players through secure, human-verified accounts that move seamlessly across games, marketplaces, and rewards. Together, we’re scaling proof of human and on-chain utility to build the largest, most inclusive digital gaming economy in the world.”
Addressing AI Challenges in Gaming
The broader use of AI in gaming has presented challenges, including distinguishing between real players and bots. The integration of proof-of-human technology aims to restore trust in player interactions and the authenticity of player achievements.
Ajay Patel, Head of World ID at Tools for Humanity, emphasizes the benefits of this technology in maintaining the integrity of the gaming world: “AI is transforming gaming, but it’s also blurring the line between players and bots. Proof of human restores trust to that equation. By integrating it into Mythical’s ecosystem, we’re giving millions of gamers the ability to prove they’re real – and ensuring that ownership, creativity, and competition all remain human. This is how we keep gaming fair and the future of entertainment truly human-first.”
This development by Mythical Games and World indicates a significant shift towards secure, transparent, and fair gaming experiences, leveraging blockchain and human ID technologies to set new standards in the digital gaming industry.
