  • Invest in Web 3 game makers for developing decentralized games on the Solana blockchain.
  • Invite and attract developers to build gaming applications and bring more gaming-related developments on top of Solana.
    • Web3 games basically allow users to engage with the virtual space by owning assets.
    • In these games, players can freely trade goods and services around the world with each other and can participate in community economies that reward creativity, collaboration, and skill.
    • They are able to generate opportunities for establishing a market for these products and thus leading to the creation of a self-sustaining economy in this way.
    • These games usually use non-fungible tokens (NFTs), that work on the transparency and security of the digital ledger of blockchain, to verify unique digital items.

The CEO of Forte Josh Williams said about the partnership, that prevalence of NFTs and other blockchain technologies have helped game developers to offer their customers real property rights while creating prospering and self-sufficient markets within their games. Forte provides tools for developers to include blockchain elements in games through an already established framework instead of starting from the beginning.
This is Solana’s second investment into gaming, first one being the partnership with FTX and Lightspeed, for which it invested $100 million. This launched in November.
