Blockchain esports games are like regular esports games: online games in a competitive environment that are played for rewards. However, unlike regular esports games, these are developed on a blockchain network. This confers the much-talked-about decentralization to these games, allowing them to be free from fraud or manipulation and strengthening trust with players.

According to crypto news, the blockchain gaming market is expected to exceed $600 billion by 2030, but until then, let’s look at the market’s relatively humble beginnings with this exciting collection of Blockchain esports games.

1. Zuki

Ready for some action-packed adventure? Look no further than Zuki Moba, inspired by the popular Japanese game Yukigassen. Like Yukigassen, Zuki Moba brings the thrill of snowball fighting to a multiplayer arena.

Compete against teams or individuals in this game and develop personal and teamwork skills through the different game modes such as Battle Royal, Practice Mode, and Conflict Mode.

Backed by the Binance Smart Chain, Zuki Moba is a thrilling experience requiring skill and strategy. With the use of NFTs, you can customize your avatars for that unique gaming experience.

2. Bitcoin Bounce

As the name of this game implies, it mainly requires you to bounce a Bitcoin on the blockchain consistently. Don't be fooled; it is not as easy to play as it sounds!

Bitcoin Bounce is challenging and constantly engaging. It requires you to collect power-ups to increase your score. Using the play-to-earn approach, you stand a chance to win bitcoins as a reward by participating in the daily draws.

When you are ready to take your money out, you use THNDR tickets, which you earn from playing, and your winnings can be cashed into a Lightning Network-supported crypto wallet powered by the Bitcoin Blockchain.

3. CryptoFights: Battlegrounds Evolved

Similar to your favorite Battle Royales, CryptoFights is a combat game that tasks players with developing their combat skills and defeating enemies. Not only can you deal deadly blows to opponents, but you can dodge, hide, run, cast spells, and so much more. As the Bitcoin Blockchain backs it, players can review each fight and trade in-game items and characters for cryptocurrency on the Kronoverse marketplace.

As you will do at your favorite crypto casinos, players can also place bets within this game. However, these bets are on characters and the outcome of fights.

4. Basketball Legends

Yeah, you guessed it, Basketball Legends is about your favorite sport: Basketball.

As the owner of this game, you have full control over what happens on the team. At the start, you practice in amateur tournaments and invest your earnings to build your team to compete in tougher leagues. Strategic recruiting of players and coaches is necessary to increase your chances of winning bigger prizes.

Backed by the Blockchain Smart Chain (BSC), Basketball Legends is available on the web.

5. MetaBirds

Employing the play-to-earn model, MetaBirds is a simple bird racing game. All that’s required of you is to simply guide your bird to the finish line in hopes that your bird will finish at the top of the worldwide leaderboard.

The backstory is quite intriguing: An evil group of humans called the Legion have captured birds and now use them for their entertainment, and only the birds that win races will be set free. Interesting, isn't it? Moving up the leaderboard by winning races and completing quests qualifies you to win cryptocurrency.

Built on the Ethereum network, tokens earned from completing quests can be exchanged for ETH.

6. FootEarn

The first football eSport game to launch on the blockchain was Footearn.

Footearn has managed to build a large audience online not just because of its engaging gameplay but by making it free-to-play. Unlike most projects out there, footearn focuses on player experience first rather than earning economics.

You get a team once you start the game without paying a fee, play multiplayer mode, and compete in tournaments to win prizes. It is backed by the Polygon blockchain and uses NFTs to facilitate in-game transactions.

7. XALTE

The fun never ends with XALTE, a BSC out-and-out action-packed Multiple Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game.

Choose your preferred game mode: a lone ranger taking the fury to your opponents or working with a team to defeat your enemies; the choice is yours. A variety of gameplay modes are available to help each player hone their skills, such as Classic mode, Diving Grace, and Chaos mode, among several others. By winning battles, players earn XALTE points, which can be gathered to receive tokens.

8. StarHeroes

Explore the universe and conquer different galaxies in your spaceship in this action-packed shooter game. Build your character and work with teammates to secure collectibles, master and unlock special attributes that make flying in the universe easier, and improve your gaming experience. Players earn $STAR tokens by playing consistently or participating in pre-farming events.

With the elite gaming developers also credited for developing best-selling games like Cyberpunk 2077 behind the development of StarHeroes, unlimited fun is guaranteed in this terra-backed space shooter.

9. Afterland

If you are interested in a first-person shooter game, Afterland, backed by the Immutable-X blockchain, will definitely keep you locked in with its gameplay.

Players have the option to traverse the adventure mode as a single-player or multiplayer. It can be quite daunting at first, as you cannot respawn if killed, but as you advance, the earnings become greater, and they can be used for character development or exchanged for tokens. With the intelligent ranking system, battles are also tougher but more rewarding the higher you climb in rank.
