Bountykinds Solutions Inc. today announced the upcoming release of "EXE ARENA," an innovative blockchain game that combines strategic card battles with real-time action. The game is scheduled to launch on iOS and Android in 2026.
"EXE ARENA" is supervised by Yukio Nakatani, renowned for his work on FINAL FANTASY VII, FINAL FANTASY VIII, and Chrono Trigger, who oversee world-building and character design. This next-generation card battle game combines strategic depth with exhilarating action to deliver a unique and immersive play experience.
The title will also be showcased at Tokyo Game Show 2025 (TGS2025), beginning September 25, 2025.
Key Features of "EXE ARENA"
- Innovative Fusion of Strategy and Action Beyond traditional deck-building gameplay, "EXE ARENA" introduces direct real-time controls, creating intense battles where every card effect, placement, and activation timing can determine the outcome.
- Daily Play & Deck Growth By winning battles, players earn gacha tickets that can be used to acquire new cards. Collecting and strengthening decks creates a satisfying growth cycle that encourages continued play.
- True Ownership via Web3 Technology Select cards are stored on the blockchain, allowing players to truly own digital assets. Players can trade these assets on marketplaces or link them with external services, evolving gameplay into an economic activity.
- Exclusive Tournament Rewards Post-launch tournaments will reward top-ranking players with exclusive prizes, such as gift vouchers and limited NFT cards. Player achievements will accumulate as visible, tradable assets.
- Spectator Betting System (Planned) "EXE ARENA" is also planning to introduce a spectator betting feature, allowing audiences to place wagers on specific players. This system allows spectators to share in both the excitement and potential rewards, enhancing the game's competitive appeal and fostering deeper community engagement through a participatory economy.
