Magic Eden to support Polygon-based NFTs

Leading NFT marketplace Magic Eden announced it is extending support to Polygon-based NFTs to onboard more Web3 games and global brands to the platform on Nov. 23.

Support for the Polygon chain comes after Solana and Ethereum were added, and over 400 gaming and Metaverse projects launched via its Launchpad and marketplace.

With over US$2.5 billion in NFT trade volume, Polygon also hosts big Web3 gaming projects including Sandbox, Atari, Skyweaver, Midnight Society, Metalcore, Wildcard, and Zed Run.

Magic Eden will roll out a Launchpad and marketplace to provide tools for blockchain gaming publishers building on Polygon using its native token MATIC. A Launchpad is an incubator for Web3 games to build within a designated blockchain network.

Game developers who have already committed to Magic Eden’s Launchpad with Polygon include  BORA backed by Kakao Games, IntellaX, nWay, Block Games, Boomland, Planet Mojo and Taunt Battleworld.

‘Being part of web3 so early means that we need to be open to all the possibilities that innovation brings. Our goal is to grow the overall market for NFTs. We can grow the pie by bringing in new users, and testing real use cases for NFTs that have longevity, such as games. Going to Polygon creates more inspiration and cross-exposure opportunities for everyone,’ said Magic Eden.
