Japan’s Biggest Mobile Gaming Developer to Launch Web3 Game on Immutable: Details

Japan’s biggest mobile game developer is set to launch Tokyo Beast on Immutable, the premier platform for games on Ethereum, according to a recent announcement from Immutable. The collaboration combines traditional mobile gaming expertise with cutting-edge blockchain technology.

This collaboration marks Immutable’s third unicorn developer deal and reinforces its leadership in Asia’s Web3 gaming market.

Naoki Motohashi, the Producer of Tokyo Beast, stated,

“Partnering with Immutable was a clear choice for us as we push to expand the boundaries of Web3 gaming. Immutable’s blockchain technology is a perfect fit to bring Tokyo Beast to Web3. We’re excited to set a new standard for competitive gaming on the blockchain.”

Game Overview: Tokyo Beast Unveiled

Tokyo Beast introduces a new style of gameplay that seamlessly blends traditional mobile mechanics with Web3 innovation. Set in the futuristic Tokyo of 2124, the game presents a world where androids known as replicants possess a will of their own. In this universe, humans live in luxury while competitive combat becomes a form of entertainment.

At the heart of Tokyo Beast is “XENO-karate,” a high-stakes tournament where androids—referred to as “BEAST”—battle for supremacy. The game is designed for dual participation:

• Competitors assemble a team of four BEAST androids and enter intense tournaments.
• Spectators predict match outcomes and earn rewards based on accurate forecasts.

This dual structure caters to both active gamers and passive fans, expanding the game’s appeal and creating multiple revenue streams.

Web3 Features

Tokyo Beast stands out with its integration of blockchain technology. Key Web3 features include:

Pooled NFT System

The game introduces a pooled NFT system that allows new players to join without owning NFTs. This system maintains value for existing NFT holders while enabling a broader audience to participate. Players can stake tokens to receive BEAST NFTs, which can then be staked for additional tokens and in-game items.

Advanced Breeding Mechanics

Players can breed their BEAST androids to create unique, rare variants. This advanced breeding mechanic adds depth to the gameplay and encourages long-term engagement.

Competitive PvP Battles and Global Tournaments

Tokyo Beast hosts daily arena battles and a weekend Championship. The tournament structure is designed to:

• Engage a large community of competitive players.
• Offer in-game rewards and recognition for the top 20 players each week.
• Livestream each match globally to attract a wider audience.
• Public data on party composition, performance, and odds is available. This transparency empowers players to make informed predictions about tournament outcomes.

Wagering and Prediction Elements

In addition to combat, the game features a win-loss prediction system. Spectators can wager on match outcomes and earn in-game rewards, including jewels and virtual currency. This element introduces a layer of strategy and engagement for those who prefer to follow the action from the sidelines.

Immutable’s co-founder, Robbie Ferguson, said,

“At Immutable, we focus on bringing high-quality games to Web3. Tokyo Beast exemplifies a game that can drive mainstream adoption of blockchain gaming. With its large fanbase and solid game design, we believe the Tokyo Beast Championship tournaments will engage millions of new players.”

Immutable’s Role in Enhancing the Experience

Some of the key advantages Immutable brings to Tokyo Beast include:

• High Liquidity: Immutable will support major in-game tournaments, which will reportedly drive digital asset liquidity and enhance the overall gaming experience.
• Scalability: Immutable’s blockchain solutions ensure that the game can handle large-scale events without compromising speed or security.
• Interoperability: With support for Ethereum-based assets and its own zero-knowledge scaling solution, Immutable zkEVM, the platform ensures smooth interactions between various blockchain elements.

Immutable has already onboarded over 440 well-funded games onto its platform, making it the fastest-growing ecosystem of 2025. With backing from top global investors such as Temasek, Tencent, Bitkraft, King River Capital, and Galaxy, Immutable aims to lead the charge in blockchain gaming.

Strengthening Immutable’s Position in Asia’s Web3 Market

Tokyo Beast marks another major step for Immutable as it continues to secure collaborations with top-tier developers. Immutable saw the success of MARBLEX in South Korea and agreements with over 235 gaming companies across Asia. With Tokyo Beast, Immutable aims to:

• Expand its reach in Asia.
• Attract a broader audience to blockchain gaming.
• Set new standards for competitive Web3 games.
