Swedish game studio Patriots Division has successfully clinched a significant financial milestone, rounding up $5 million in seed and Series A financing to support the development of the Shadow War blockchain-centered venture. Matrix 6 led the cash influx in the Series A round, while other investment consortiums, including iAngels, Cointelligence Fund, Xborg, Andromeda VC, Cogitent Ventures, and Cluster Capital, also contributed.
Shadow War is a 5v5 action game that is based in a futuristic world and mixes the features that made titles like Overwatch or League of Legends famous. Although it shares common narrative elements, including science fiction, fantasy, action, and competition, it provides a unique game involving close-range combat and strategy. As a result, the approach focuses on these players who enjoy skill-based challenges and attempt to solve the problem of pay-to-win mechanics that typically appear in esports.
Currently, the objective of the new game’s development is to use the recently acquired funds to produce a game of exceptional quality and an enjoyable user experience. This division strives to refine the game’s most advanced technological and gameplay elements. Concurrently, they ensure that a mechanism for receiving player and testing feedback is established and that the product is of the utmost possible quality. The foundational phase of game testing has recently been completed with the active participation of 10,000 registered users. This active involvement from the community serves as evidence of the game’s feasibility and a conscientious feedback mechanism for the studio’s ongoing game development process.
The Patriots Division Broad Strategy incorporates numerous testing cycles for every component of Shadow War in order to meet the expectations of a restless and demanding gaming audience. These initiatives aim to create a thrilling and fair gaming environment, devoid of the annoyances associated with gameplay that primarily involve spending money instead of exercising talent.
The studio is in the process of further developing Shadow War and has significant funds for the project. Web3 technologies appear to supervise the trajectory of the gaming industry moving forward. Patriots Division is well positioned to position itself within the highly competitive realm of Internet gaming and potentially establish novel benchmarks for the Web3 gaming sector by virtue of its innovative and distinctive game design and steadfast commitment to community-driven development.
