Layer 2 protocol Immutable introduced technology that enables in-game payments without interrupting gameplay.
The Immutable team introduced Passport Pre-Approved Transactions, a feature that allows blockchain transactions to be processed within the game interface, enabling seamless in-game payments. The new technology eliminates the need for users to leave the gaming environment to approve a transaction.
Immutable is the largest platform for developing and scaling Web3 games based on the Ethereum blockchain. According to the press release, there are already more than 400 games based on the Immutable protocol, giving the project about 70% of the Web3 games market. The number of users of Immutable projects exceeds 3 million.
According to the developers, Passport Pre-Approved Transactions will facilitate the development of in-game mechanics related to blockchain technologies, including the creation and trading of in-game items. The new feature is currently limited to in-game assets due to the need to fully test the technology in a controlled and secure environment. In the future, the Immutable team plans to add ETH, USDC, and IMX, the platform’s native token, to the list of available assets.
Immutable’s main goal is to make the gaming experience for users of Web3 projects as close as possible to that of gamers who prefer traditional games.
Max Krupyshev, CEO of CryptoProcessing.com, said during the Purpose Driven FinTech podcast that item trading in eSports is a mature digital industry. Dota, Counter-Strike, Fortnite, Roblox, and many other online games allow the exchange and trading of various items and skins. This is a global market whose participants want to conduct transactions quickly. In such a situation, the most convenient payment option is cryptocurrency.
Earlier, the Immutable team agreed to cooperate with payment provider Transak, as a result of which players were able to use fiat money for transactions in Web3 games.
