About PROJECT XENO

PROJECT XENO is a blockchain game operated by EPOCH FACTORY and developed by CROOZ, a listed Japanese company. The full-scale tactical battle NFT game combines GameFi, e-Sports, and Fun. PROJECT XENO is available globally and can be played on smartphones and PCs.

PROJECT XENO has the following features.

Feature (1) Collaboration with celebrities such as Floyd Mayweather JR

The game has appointed some ambassadors to reach users around the world; popular YouTuber Hikaru as an ambassador in Japan, along with eight-division boxing world champion Manny Pacquiao and Fumiya, "the most famous Japanese in the Philippines," as ambassadors in Southeast Asia. In addition, NFTs collaborated with former five-division boxing world champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. and others are also available.

Feature (2) Developed by a listed Japanese company

PROJECT XENO is developed and operated by a listed company that has released many hit smartphone games in the Japanese market and is able to provide high-quality games and stable operations.

Feature (3) “Web 2.5” specifications that also enable users without NFT to play

PROJECT XENO is a free-to-play game, meaning that it can still be played by users who do not own NFT. Furthermore, the game supports in-game purchases, allowing users to play the game in exactly the same way as NFT holders. The only difference with NFT holders is the presence or absence of the Earn feature. There are no discrepancies in character strength, etc., allowing PROJECT XENO to be played like any other social game. If social games are Web 2.0 and GameFi games are Web 3.0, then PROJECT XENO can be considered a Web 2.5 game.
