Dark Machine

Dark Machine is an esports-focused mech shooter game scheduled to release in 2025, and it’s having a small genesis collection mint on the Immutable ETH L2 soon.

 The game’s got some big backers, with a supposed $8.7M raised from investors including Chinese corporate behemoth Tencent. 

It also has some really good art direction courtesy of two well-known anime directors who already pulled off a good-looking trailer. 

Game development, though, is being handled by META-X, a smaller company that features a doxxed Japanese crew with experience in the games industry but not under the META-X name (more about them here and here). 

I can’t in good faith hype the game up very much given the lack of gameplay shown so far (only this 9-month-old prototype video), but this is a free mint by a doxxed, funded and experienced team who have already put out some genuinely appealing anime visuals.
