UNKJD Studios (previously ‘Uncaged Studio’), well recognized for its Web3 game MonkeyLeague, presents UNKJD Soccer as its new brand. It has a new vision to create the brand on the three main pillars of IP, game, and Web3, with the goal of going beyond the mobile soccer game. With new sports games added every six to eight months, UNKJD seeks to swiftly extend its universe while enhancing its IP via partnerships with prominent sports, entertainment, and fashion brands.
The leading Solana blockchain-based gaming studio UNKJD has made a strategic step by appointing Maxim Bashkaev Vaysbord, a highly respected former Azuki executive, as its new Brand Director. The team behind the firm includes seasoned veterans from companies like Dissney, Playtika, and Coti. Vaysbord, who has a history in fashion and successful Web3 companies, brings a lot of creativity and expertise to UNKJD’s journey.
Vaysbord stated:
“We firmly believe that gaming is at the forefront of the entertainment industry. At UNKJD, we aim to architect a universe where games are the centerpiece, and Web3 acts as the connective matrix, empowering the community with ownership and our games with interoperability.”
The key to a cohesive game experience is UNKJD $MBS, which is at the core of the UNKJD. Through the UNKJD $MBS, users may discover new experiences inside a single, continuous world, connecting all of the UNKJD games.
Tal Friedman, UNKJD CEO and a leader in the Israeli gaming industry stated:
“UNKJD Soccer is more than a name change—it’s a declaration of our commitment to providing a truly fun and unique experience to all players, regardless of whether you’re a Web2 or Web3 enthusiast. UNKJD Soccer is just the beginning of our journey to redefine the next era of Web3 gaming”.
Co-founder Raz Friedman, who helped create the free-to-play model and is well-known for his work at popular games like Slotomania, WSOP Poker, and House of Fun, says he is certain that UNKJD Soccer will continue to be at the forefront of gaming innovation.
Friedman stated:
“The video gaming industry is on the brink of an extraordinary era with expected $282 billion revenue and solid annual growth of 8.76% from 2024 to 2027. UNKJD is positioned at the forefront of this innovation. With UNKJD Soccer, we’re not merely launching a game; we’re leading the industry into a future where sports, strategy, and RPG seamlessly converge. The game provides a platform for adept players aspiring to “Go Pro,” allowing them to utilize and trade game collectibles and tokens. Our rebranding is a strategic move to align with the dynamic growth projected for the gaming market”.
UNKJD’s 2024 roadmap begins with the much awaited upgrade of its debut game, Monkey League, to UNKJD Soccer in a crucial market: Brazil. The firm plans to progressively unveil its cutting-edge economics and game design over the year, in addition to exposing more uses for the UNKJD $MBS token. The second part of 2024 is scheduled to see the worldwide debut of UNKJD.
