Gaming Influencers Launch Gallaxia, First Player-Owned Blockchain Studio
Over 50 prominent gaming influencers have launched Gallaxia, a player-owned gaming and entertainment studio. The initiative combines creator ownership, AAA gameplay, and extensive content distribution, altering the landscape of online multiplayer games.
- Founding members include PUBG Mobile influencers and former footballer James Ashton.
- Gallaxia's creators collectively boast over 200 million followers and 30 billion content views.
Gallaxia uniquely offers creators long-term equity through Gallaxium Bars, digital assets tied to network revenue, empowering them as owners rather than mere promoters.
"We’re building something communities can own," stated Panda, a co-owner of Gallaxia.
Levinho and Sevou highlighted the transformation in game studio dynamics, emphasizing creators' roles as builders and storytellers.
Planet-X: Gallaxia’s Flagship Game
- Planet-X, in early access, has over 300,000 sign-ups and $500,000 in sales.
- The game offers "phygital" experiences, blending digital assets with real-world rewards.
James Ashton remarked that Gallaxia aims to emulate successful gaming companies like Riot Games but on blockchain principles, co-owned by community and creators.
The studio collaborates with major athletes and entertainers, including NBA Champion Isaiah Joe, for in-game events.
The play-to-earn sector now exceeds $4.8 billion in value, with projects like Immutable X, Decentraland, and The Sandbox leading gains despite minor daily losses.
