Blockchain gaming saw remarkable growth in January 2025, with onchain activity tripling compared to last year, according to DappRadar. Web3 games attracted over 7 million daily active wallets, reflecting a 386% increase.
Key drivers include advancements in layer-2 technology, evolving token economies, and partnerships with major developers. OpBNB led the sector, while Polygon doubled its gaming activity. AI integration and innovative game mechanics are also shaping the industry’s future.
