OKX and Immutable are joining forces in a new partnership. This collaboration will bring a GameFi NFT launchpad to life and incorporate Immutable’s zkEVM chain into both the OKX Marketplace and Wallet. Such advancements are anticipated to transform user interaction with NFTs and digital assets within gaming.
The partnership will include a specialized GameFi launchpad within OKX’s NFT Marketplace, developed in collaboration with Immutable. Further, Immutable’s zkEVM will be integrated into OKX’s services, and their Web3 Wallet will become part of Immutable’s Passport identity solution. OKX’s NFT Marketplace will also join Immutable’s Orderbook and Marketplace Network.

With over 270 titles in development on Immutable’s zkEVM, OKX wallet users will enjoy a smooth onboarding process, gameplay, and management of their in-game assets.
