BattleFly Joins TreasureDAO to Make NFT Gaming Affordable
BattleFly, the project bringing a competitive play-and-earn world to blockchain gaming, joins the vibrant Treasure Gaming ecosystem. BattleFly utilises Treasure’s native token, $MAGIC to unlock the game to an interconnected player network. With an introductory price point between $20 and $100, the company provides an inclusive alternative within the blockchain gaming realm.
Picture yourself as a crypto novice eager to try out an exciting play-to-earn game for the first time, especially after hearing how people can make serious cash playing on the blockchain. However, rather than earning potential, you’re met with increasingly steep barriers within the game, from multiple microtransactions to extortionate operational gas fees. This is the reality that can cause many casual gamers to recoil from entering blockchain gaming, creating an unsustainable and inaccessible play-to-earn ecosystem.
Built on TreasureDAO, BattleFly will allow players to experience a new NFT gaming universe that prioritises accessibility and interoperability. BattleFly is powered by $MAGIC, a token operating on the Arbitrum network, which allows the project to retain an accessible price point. Through the token, BattleFly opens the gate to a wider gaming community so a sustainable, diverse, and durable game ecosystem can thrive.
BattleFly will center on a player-versus-player (PvP) gameplay model where users can battle with their unique “BattleFlys,” NFT creations that blend nature with next-generation robotics. In addition to the strategic gameplay and story of the BatteFly universe, additional minigames provide an active experience for the BattleFly community to engage with and earn in-game rewards.
BattleFly Racer is the first minigame to be introduced to its interface– a fast-paced, unique, and dynamic racing challenge that rewards player skill and practice over sheer chance. Racer will serve as the introduction to the wider world of BattleFly as new facets and games are added in the future. As players face off in the BattleFly universe, the economic mechanics of the game will ensure a projected 75% of players retain a net-zero or positive outcome from each battle.
TreasureDAO is a gaming ecosystem that bridges blockchain and Metaverse gaming projects that utilise the $MAGIC token. BattleFly joins a roster of over 50 upcoming projects powered by $MAGIC, connecting the game to a diverse network of audiences and blockchain experiences. Additionally, the $MAGIC token enables the low-cost barrier of BattleFly’s NFT collection, which launched with 90 exclusive artist collaborations.
“We are really proud to be included in TreasureDAO’s selection of blockchain gaming projects. NFT and crypto gaming have carried the stigma of being a playground for the speculator rather than the gamer. Our operation aims to change this image and show that players around the world can experience the fun and economic value of blockchain gaming,” says Ben Beath, Founder of BattleFly.

Eagerly anticipated release now confirmed following a highly successful exclusivity period with Rush Street Interactive
Play’n GO has today announced the official US release of its hit title Colt Lightning Firestorm, following a three-week period of exclusivity with Rush Street Interactive brands BetRivers and SugarHouse.
Colt Lightning Firestorm was released in Europe and other jurisdictions in May 2024, and its release in the US comes with much fanfare following the game’s rave reviews in its short exclusivity period. The game is a sequel to the wildly popular Colt Lightning game which was released early last year, and indications at this stage suggest that this sequel may prove even more successful.
This announcement sees Colt Lightning Firestorm available to players in each state and operator with whom Play’n GO is licensed. Play’n GO first entered the online casino market in the US in 2022, and has reiterated its commitment to becoming active in every regulated market around the world.
Magnus Olsson, Chief Commercial Officer at Play’n GO said: “We’re excited to unveil Colt Lightning Firestorm to the wider online casino gaming community in the US, and have been very pleased to see its strong performance during its exclusivity period with Rush Street Interactive. We had high hopes for the game following the success of its predecessor, and we’re confident that these robust results will continue now that the game is available to an even bigger audience.”
Esports entertainment company BLAST has announced plans to host two popular esports events in Singapore in 2024 and 2025.

to attract global esports talent, foster local growth, and elevate Singapore’s status as a destination for world-class esports entertainment.

Over the coming 18 months, Singapore will become a major hub for esports in Southeast Asia, and with the support of the Singapore Tourism Board, we look forward to delivering unforgettable experiences for fans while helping to build a thriving esports ecosystem in the region. Bringing the first BLAST arena event to Singapore is an exciting first step in this journey. The World Final will see the world’s best Counter-Strike players and teams fighting for a $1,000,000 total prize pool.”
Ms Ong Ling Lee, Executive Director, Sports and Wellness, Singapore Tourism Board, said, “We are excited to host the BLAST Premier World Final and the BLAST Dota Slam in Singapore. The Counter-Strike event marks the first BLAST-branded event in Southeast Asia and the inaugural Counter-Strike tournament series in the region, solidifying Singapore’s position as a world-class esports destination. We are confident that the international participants and their legions of fans will have a memorable experience in Singapore, immersing themselves in the diverse and dynamic offerings of our city.”
The World Final 2024 will take place from 30th October – 3rd November and will be the first BLAST event to take place in Singapore, followed by the BLAST Dota Slam in 2025.
