Pudgy Penguin Character to Debut on Pixelverse’s Popular Telegram Mini-Game PixelTap

Pixelverse, a Web3 gaming platform, will bring the Pudgy Penguin character to its Telegram mini-game. In the PixelTap game, the adorable character that serves as the face of the popular Pudgy Penguins NFT collection will take center stage.

Pudgy will appear on PixelTap, with other popular crypto favorites like Doge and Mew, the cat that fronts the most popular Solana memecoin. The addition of Pudgy, the most recognizable character in web3, to the popular PixelTap game will make it easier for mainstream users to explore the world of web3 .

Pudgy Penguins have swept across the cryptocurrency space and the rest of the globe, shattering previous records for web3-native IP. Over 4 million people follow the Pudgy Instagram account, and over 1 million Pudgy toys have been sold at major retailers including Walmart.

With the help of the Pixelverse integration, gamers will be able to interact with the endearing Pudgy character, reducing the barrier to entry for web3 gaming. Before the official Pudgy Penguins game, which is slated for release in 2025, arrives, it will give Pudgy fans their first experience of the penguin as a game character.

With the addition of real-time PvP combat, Pixelverse’s game ecosystem surpasses Telegram’s successful tap-to-earn model and has witnessed record demand. In the first month after its introduction, PixelTap registered over 50 million users, and has over 10 million daily players.

Pudgy Penguins have already accomplished the exceptional achievement of surpassing their original designation as a PFP collection consisting of 8,888 unique characters. Since then, the brand’s IP has expanded to include fluffy toys via a number of licensing agreements, giving fans more opportunities to connect with Pudgy.

Once again, Pudgy is breaking new ground and reaching millions of users via the TON ecosystem and within the Pixelverse.
