In March, the SKALEverse expanded significantly as new partners came on board, additional chains joined the interconnected network, and numerous in-person networking events took place. By educating people about SKALE's advanced technology and enabling users to enjoy seamless Web3 experiences, particularly in blockchain gaming, the SKALEverse has successfully attracted new partners to its vibrant ecosystem. Most notably, from SKALE’s in-person events this previous month, we observed a shift in web2 gamers’ interest in exploring the advantages of web3 gaming. Read all the SKALEverse highlights to keep up with the latest developments from March.

Untitled, a retro multiplayer game, harnesses the power of SKALE’s sophisticated blockchain technology to revolutionize the gaming industry. Their goal is to present laid-back gamers with opportunities to discover and relish in-game experiences with friends. At the same time, those with a competitive edge can pursue complete mastery of the game, encompassing achievements and in-game challenges.
