Elixir Games, a crypto gaming store, revealed on Wednesday that it secured $14 million in seed funding to advance its decentralized gaming ecosystem set to launch this year.
Elixir Secures Funding from Square Enix, Solana Foundation, and Shima Capital to Enhance Launcher Platform and Integrate ELIX Token
Notable participants in the funding round include Square Enix, the developer behind Final Fantasy, alongside the Solana Foundation and Shima Capital. Square Enix's involvement follows a previous partnership with Elixir and is not exclusive, as the company recently invested in HyperPlay, a competing crypto gaming launcher.
The raised funds will bolster the development of Elixir's launcher platform, presently hosting over 130 games and boasting more than 500,000 registered users. Additionally, it will support the imminent release of the ELIX token, which will power Elixir's products and services.
