Mythical Games, a leading Web3 gaming studio, is preparing to launch its highly anticipated mobile soccer game, FIFA Rivals, in June. The game, which is designed for both iOS and Android platforms, will incorporate blockchain elements, targeting soccer fans around the world. A pre-release of the game is set for May, ahead of its global launch coinciding with the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup.
Developed in partnership with Colombia’s Bacon Games, FIFA Rivals aims to offer an immersive experience for soccer enthusiasts while integrating Web3 technology, allowing players to engage with digital assets and collectibles. This release follows the success of Mythical Games’ earlier title, NFL Rivals, which attracted nearly 3 million players by the end of 2023.
Mythical Games, recognized for its successful collaborations with major sports brands like the NFL and FIFA, continues to innovate in the Web3 space. FIFA has previously experimented with blockchain, offering digital collectibles that provided special perks to owners, including exclusive opportunities for the 2026 World Cup final.
The studio’s momentum in the Web3 gaming market was solidified with a $150 million Series C funding round in 2021, led by a16z, boosting the company’s valuation to $1.25 billion. Mythical Games is also working on Pudgy Party, a mobile game based on the popular Pudgy Penguins NFT brand, which is expected to launch in 2025.
With FIFA Rivals, Mythical Games plans to score big by combining the global appeal of soccer with the innovations of blockchain, offering a unique gaming experience for football fans.
