Working towards at least two major web3 game launches in the coming months, Mythical Games is already showing encouraging numbers of the ongoing activity on its Polkadot-based Mythos blockchain. It claims it’s recently hit: More generally, the Mythos chain currently ranks as the fourth chain in terms of trading volume behind Ethereum, Polygon and Bitcoin but ahead of Solana and Immutable. Mythical itself pinpoints mobile as the main reason behind this success, “Mobile onchain gaming works because players focus on the game, not the tech. They collect items they actually want to own, without complexity,” it said in a statement on X . The main driver of this activity is its game item marketplace DMarket. Its annual NFT trading volume has now exceeded $400 million. Notably, following the growth trend of trading AI agents, 20% of this activity is estimated to be driven by AI trading. But while DMarket is mainly used for buying and selling skins and game items for web2 games like CS:GO and DOTA 2 , Mythical has also released numbers on onchain activity within its own games. The game accounting for the highest number of users is its mobile-based American football game NFL Rivals . Its QuickTrade feature allowing for easier trades by bundling NFTs has been hailed as a big success. Indeed Mythical CEO John Linden has called it “ the most significant thing we’ve done in web3 ”. Mythical hasn’t broken out specific data for these games, but it previously stated NFL Rivals had done over 6 million downloads, while its lifetime NFT trading volume is estimated to be approaching $13 million. Other portfolio games with significantly lower onchain activity include Nitro Nation: World Tour and the currently in-development Blankos mobile. With more mobile titles such as Pudgy Penguin IP game Pudgy Party and FIFA-licensed football game FIFA Rivals dropping later in 2025, this growth is likely to accelerate to new highs. Discussing how AI could eventually impact its games and marketplace Mythical Market, Linden has mentioned the integration of AI sports agents that could help guide players through trading, among other features, to drive adoption.
