The publishing of its titles on the Epic Games Store is the latest in a series of moves by Gala Games to establish its place as an industry leader.
Leading blockchain gaming company, Gala Games, has announced that it will make its titles available on the Epic Games Store. Per the announcement, its game, GRIT, will be the first release on the store.
The Epic Games Store is traditionally a games store for PC and Mac-compatible games. Launched in 2018, the store has more than 194 million users. It houses the world’s most popular game, Fortnite, which has an average of 3 million users at any given time.
By publishing its titles on the store, Gala Games will be looking to reach a more diverse gaming audience. John Oswald, President of Games at Gala Games, believes that the move will give added legitimacy to blockchain gaming. He said, “Easy access to Web3 games is a turning point for those players who have not yet seen how digital ownership can enrich the gaming experience.”

Across different modes, players saddle up and battle through town while slinging guns in epic shootouts. The free game is set to launch later this year.
Gala Games will share more details about the game unveiled during its Galaverse from June 6-9. At the Galaverse, participants will have access to 10,000 unique gun-slinging avatars with a utility on GRIT.
