In conjunction with Animoca Brands and Notre Game, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, ONE Championship announced a new NFT-powered mobile game entitled ONE Fight Arena. The title is currently under development, with an anticipated global release set for Q1 2024. The mobile game will feature athletes from the ONE roster and utilize its IP library.

“We’re thrilled to work with an industry leader in Animoca Brands to launch ONE Fight Arena, our first Web3-enhanced video game. This partnership will give us the opportunity to engage with our global fan base at a deeper level through a unique gaming experience,” said Hua Fung Teh, Co-Founder and Group President of ONE, in the press release.

ONE Fight Arena will utilize optional blockchain technology and NFTs to give fans digital ownership of certain in-game assets. The upcoming video game release will be available without the Web3 layer to players who do not wish to utilize it. ONE Fight Arena will also be available as a traditional free-to-play mobile game.

“Our partnership with ONE to create ONE Fight Arena will enable the fans of the world’s largest martial arts organization to access a novel gaming experience with true digital ownership at its core. We look forward to assisting ONE to more closely connect with its fans in deep and meaningful ways,” said Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Animoca Brands Yat Siu.

The announcement of the game comes one week ahead of the company’s U.S. debut in Colorado on Friday, May 5. ONE Fight Night 10 will see many stars bring ONE’s unique brand of martial arts action to its American fanbase. Two of the stars, Demetrious Johnson and Rodtang Jitmuangnon, were mentioned as selectable players for the new game.

“We’re thrilled to be a part of this collaboration. The values of Notre Game, like bringing innovative and bold projects with a strong focus on quality, align perfectly with the vision of this partnership. We’re looking forward to working with ONE and Animoca Brands to bring this project to life, reach the hearts of players around the world, and push the boundaries of mobile gaming,” said CEO of Notre Game Jiri Mikolas.

Per the press release, ONE Fight Arena will give more focus to strategic gameplay than just action inside the Circle. For fans looking to become early adopters can sign-up at https://www.onefightarena.com. Beta testing is scheduled to begin in Q4 2023.
