The new game, whose title has yet to be revealed, will be an “idle tycoon” game where players will build out their own baseball stadium experience. It features both MLB and MLB Players Association licensing. While gameplay details remain under wraps, Magmic CEO Mo Agha did reveal that players will be able to build and expand their own MLB ballpark and trade players.Source: Magmic


Magmic was founded in 2002. As a pioneering mobile gaming firm, it rose to prominence as one of the premiere developers for Blackberry games with its Texas Hold ‘Em King franchise and several other titles.


In the decades since, the company’s titles have been downloaded more than 250 million times, and Magmic currently has a player base in the millions, according to the firm’s latest press release.


Magmic has developed games based on several noteworthy intellectual properties, including a mobile version of Hasbro’s Scattergories powered by ChatGPT and a real-money rummy game on iOS featuring the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) license.


The new MLB-licensed game will support both Web3 and Web2 gameplay. Users will reportedly be able to trade digital assets such as ballplayers. The game will reportedly be playable in its entirety as a traditional Web2 experience on mobile and browser without the need to participate in monetized and asset-based Web3 features.


According to commentary from Agha provided via press release:“The game is intended to be fun and easy-to-play and will allow […] sports fans and mobile gamers a chance to utilize a player-to-player marketplace and in-gameplay player ownership that leverages Web3 technology. It is Magmic’s vision and commitment to create an enjoyable gaming experience while also allowing true in-game asset ownership that truly sets it apart in the new world of Web3 gaming.”
