Yesterday, Game7 released their latest State of Web3 Gaming Report 📰
The whole report is well worth a read, but I wanted to highlight a couple findings specifically related to fully onchain games:
- Just 5% of the 1,900 games tracked in the report are classified as fully onchain. That's less than 100 games total -- truly a niche within a niche. My bet is that this number doubles in 2024 as tooling, education, and adoption continue to improve.
- The most popular genre is Strategy (40%), followed by RPG (15%), Simulation (10%), and MMO (10%). Strategy makes sense, given the deliberate pacing and low throughput requirements, though it's tough to draw meaningful conclusions on such a small sample. Personally, I'm bullish on Simulation and Casual games (6%) and will be keen to see how this balance changes over time.
I'm told that more Game7 content specifically related to fully onchain games is coming soon 👀
