The sale of The Multiplayer Group by Improbable is a strategic move that shows a change in the company's Web3 gaming strategy. Web3 Gaming thinks that the market will grow quickly in 2024, with millions of new gamers coming in, especially in Asia, thanks to better crypto laws and GameFi support. These bits give us a look at how Web3 gaming is changing right now.
