Floki, a leading cryptocurrency and utility token, has announced the highly anticipated mainnet launch of its new metaverse game, Valhalla. The blockchain-based massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) is set to revolutionize the play-to-earn gaming industry and marks a significant shift for the company from its origins as a meme token.
After more than three years of development, Valhalla is now available for players to experience the immersive world of Norse mythology, featuring character progression, combat, resource management, and guild cooperation. Unlike traditional games, Valhalla offers players the opportunity to earn real rewards through its play-to-earn structure.
The game has already gained recognition from Hafthor Bjornsson, the actor best known for his role as The Mountain in Game of Thrones and considered one of the strongest men in history. He has offered an exclusive preview of Valhalla on his Twitch channel, giving players a taste of what’s to come.
Valhalla is the flagship metaverse game of Floki, the first community takeover project in the crypto industry. The game, powered by the FLOKI token, boasts rich on-chain mechanics, NFT-based characters, and a live economy backed by a multi-million dollar treasury. The goal is to prioritize players and provide a fun, high-quality, and community-driven gaming experience while allowing them to earn real rewards for their time and skill.
According to Pedro Vidal, Community Relations Officer at FLOKI, “This is not just about putting a game on-chain – it’s about making blockchain gaming better and delivering on the promise made to our community that we will fix many of the problems found within the blockchain P2E gaming space. We’re not building for hype. We’re building something gamers actually want to play – and pushing the boundaries of what can be accomplished in the play-to-earn and blockchain gaming world… This is only the beginning.”
With the mainnet now operational, millions from the treasury will fund In Game Rewards, game development, marketing, and the formation of industry partnerships to expand the game’s user base and engagement.
Floki has also announced a partnership with Method, a renowned name in the global MMORPG esports scene, to promote Valhalla. Method will support Valhalla through dedicated content shared across its platform and feature the game on its official jersey throughout 2025 and 2026. This collaboration aims to introduce Valhalla to Method’s large MMO-focused audience ahead of its mainnet launch on June 30, showcasing Floki’s efforts to bring Web3 gaming into the mainstream.
The blockchain gaming industry has experienced rapid growth in recent years, with a projected market value of over $25 billion by 2030. Blockchain games now account for nearly 40% of all blockchain activity, with over 2.1 million daily active unique wallets recorded in early 2025. Major studios like Ubisoft and Zynga are also exploring blockchain integration in mainstream titles, while platforms such as Immutable, Polygon, and BNB Chain host popular Web3 games. The sector has attracted significant investment, with over $2 billion in venture capital funding supporting blockchain gaming startups since 2023.
Valhalla, developed by FLOKI, is a blockchain-based MMORPG inspired by Norse mythology. It offers players the chance to discover, tame, and battle with creatures called Veras in a player-driven economy and a hexagonal battlefield designed for dynamic combat. The game is available to play now and will officially launch on Mainnet on June 30, 2025.
Floki is the people’s cryptocurrency and utility token of the Floki Ecosystem. With a strong focus on utility, philanthropy, community, and marketing, Floki aims to become the world’s most known and most used cryptocurrency. It boasts over 550,000 holders and a strong brand recognized by billions of people worldwide through strategic marketing partnerships.
