Pudgy Penguins, the popular penguin-themed NFT and toy collection, is expanding its reach into the gaming world with the announcement of a mobile-based video game set to launch in 2025. Developed by Mythical Marketplace, the AAA game will be built on the Mythos Chain, a Polkadot-based network that hosts other successful Web3 games like NFL Rivals.

Mythical Games CEO John Linden emphasized Pudgy Penguins' mainstream success through its retail partnerships with major stores like Walmart and Target, as well as its growing social media presence. He expressed excitement about collaborating with Pudgy Penguins and leveraging the Mythical Platform and Mythos Chain, already familiar to millions of consumers, to further push Web3 into the mainstream.

Pudgy Penguins holders will enjoy exclusive access to mobile game content in the coming months, including early peeks at gameplay footage. Additionally, NFT holders will have the opportunity to provide input on various aspects of the game's development, fostering a collaborative relationship between the community and the developers.

This mobile game follows Pudgy Penguins' previous launch of its desktop-based Pudgy Worlds game earlier this year. It also builds on the success of the toy collection's introduction of penguin plushies and other collectibles in thousands of Walmart stores last year. With its expansion into mobile gaming, Pudgy Penguins continues to captivate audiences across different platforms, solidifying its position as a leader in the NFT and gaming space.
