NEWS ROUNDUP Crypto Gaming Szn [![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/e4/b7/e4b77544-5a37-4f0b-8824-8440aa348476/content/images/2024/10/image---2024-10-04T134955.850-2.png)](https://www.bankless.com/metaversal)**In writing these Friday Roundups this year, one thing that's stood out to me is the sheer amount of interesting crypto gaming advances we've seen in 2024. ** Here, progress is stretching out in all directions. Gaming *will *become a Trojan Horse for bringing onchain experiences to the masses, and the paths forward are being paved as we speak. Just take the current pulse of the space to see what I mean. **Abstract**, the upcoming consumer crypto L2, is welcoming its first games like [Onchain Heroes](https://x.com/onchainheroes/status/1840769813087502615).** Cambria**, the chill Runescape-like battler, is [coming to Ronin](https://x.com/playcambria/status/1836753717456245218).** Dojo**, the Starknet gaming engine, just hosted its [Demo Day](https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1DXxydlzoWEJM) featuring big updates from upcoming onchain gaming projects like Eternum. Then there's **Duper**, which is innovating an entirely [new game format](https://x.com/playduper/status/1839871166636536101) on Arbitrum. **EVE Frontier**, from the creators of the hit EVE Online MMORPG, is [ramping up on Redstone](https://x.com/EVE_Frontier/status/1834230596245025262). And of course there's **Fren Pet**, which is evolving and maintaining [impressive stats](https://x.com/kez4twez/status/1838402430721233188) while Base continues to field new game launches, like [Dappmon](https://x.com/dappmon) and [Chains](https://x.com/gtmcknight/status/1839388120854167633). That's all just the tip of the iceberg too. I could go on and on.** Pirate Nation** continues to drop new features and is contending with [major activity levels](https://x.com/PirateNation/status/1838335078948311206) with its unique bespoke infra, **Primodium **is preparing to [launch on mainnet](https://x.com/primodiumgame/status/1841922128297525437),** The Treeverse** is starting to ramp up [its Alpha launch](https://x.com/TheTreeverse/status/1842151122368114694) on Immutable, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. When I hear people say nothing much excites them in crypto right now, I suspect either that **1)** they're not gamers, or **2)** they're just having trouble keeping up with the incredible stream of crypto gaming updates that have been flowing lately. It's truly been a deluge this year, and I'm *very *excited for where these new footholds will lead.
