Yield Guild Games (YGG) is a play-to-earn gaming guild, enabling players to earn via blockchain-based economies. With YGG players can play NFT gated games and contribute to the ecosystem without having to spend a bomb on NFT acquisitions.
Funded by leading players in the ecosystem like A16Z, Bitkraft, Polygon, and Animoca. YGG is highly community-driven and has a strong geographic presence in South East Asia. To expand its global reach YGG is creating geo-specific guilds to build out localized guild communities and infrastructure.
YGG has partnered with Polygon to build out IndiGG which aims to create a guild of gamers based in the Indian sub-continent which is a gaming powerhouse of 400 million gamers. IndiGG will provide a platform to YGG and partner games to allow gamers to discover and play the most promising upcoming games and further the P2E movement.
With YGG’s support, IndiGG will leverage the best practices of running a guild and learn from their experiences to achieve its mission of bringing web3 gaming to India much faster.
With Polygon Studios, scholars will have access to the latest web 3 gaming releases on Polygon. With an ecosystem of games including but not limited to Zed Run, Skyweaver, and Decentraland, and a growing list of AAA games, IndiGG will develop an edge in game asset acquisition in the play-to-earn space.
