11 March 2022 — Hanoi, Vietnam: Undead Blocks, the world’s first AAA FPS Play to Earn Zombie Shooter game, announced today that it has raised $600K in a Private round of funding led by Animoca Brands. The Private round comes after Undead Blocks completed a seed round of $1.1M co-led by Genblock Capital & Double Peak Group.

Undead Blocks will be the world’s first AAA first-person shooter (FPS) play-to-earn (P2E) game, allowing players to purchase weapons as NFTs and earn in-game rewards by eliminating waves of zombies and completing in-game achievements.

Animoca Brands is a global leader in gamification and blockchain with a large portfolio of over 150 investments in NFT-related companies and decentralized projects that are contributing to building the open metaverse.

The new funding announced today will be used to scale game development and boost marketing efforts prior to Undead Blocks’ full game launch in the second half of 2022.

Yat Siu, the executive chairman and co-founder of Animoca Brands, commented: “Animoca Brands is excited to see Undead Blocks develop into the P2E zombie shooter of choice for FPS gamers and we believe it is well positioned to emerge as an industry leader over the course of 2022.”

Grant Haseley, executive director and co-founder of Undead Blocks, commented: “Animoca Brands is the industry leader in empowering players to monetize their in-game assets as we rapidly enter a digital renaissance. We believe play AND earn is the future of FPS gaming, and we are honored to work with Yat and his team as we continue to make that dream a reality for gamers all over the world.”

Developed by Wagyu Games in partnership with Kevuru Games, Undead Blocks has developed a revolutionary secondary tokenomics model to provide the ultimate sustainability and flexibility for compensating players for their in- game achievements and quests. Undead Blocks will be available on PC and MAC, with the use of PS5 and Xbox One controllers via Bluetooth to allow console gamers to enjoy an immersive experience and participate in P2E activities.

Undead Blocks will release a closed beta to the public at the end in April 2022, followed by full game launch in Q2, and mobile game delivery is scheduled for Q3 of 2022.
