Mystic Games has announced a strategic partnership with Jambo to integrate the Web3 game Call of the VoYd into JamboPhones, expanding access to blockchain gaming in emerging markets.

While Call of the VoYd is currently available for download on app stores, this collaboration ensures that the play-to-earn title will come pre-installed on JamboPhones, offering users in Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America immediate access to the immersive Web3 experience.

Designed with accessibility in mind, JamboPhones are equipped with a suite of applications including JamboPlay, JamboEarn, and JamboWallet, all powered by Android 13. This integration of Call of the VoYd onto JamboPhones aligns with the mission of both Mystic Games and Jambo to democratize access to the digital economy globally.

Matthew Buxton, CEO of Mystic Games, expressed excitement about the partnership's potential to empower individuals in emerging markets. "Bringing Call of the VoYd to the JamboPhone is not just about expanding our game's reach; it's about unlocking the scale of possibility for play-to-earn games in Africa. We're excited to see how this partnership will empower individuals in emerging markets to engage with cutting-edge gaming technology and earn rewards in the process."

James Zhang, CEO of Jambo, highlighted the broader impact of the collaboration, stating, "Our collaboration with Mystic Games reflects our joint commitment to democratizing access to the digital economy globally. By incorporating 'Call of the VoYd' into the JamboPhone, we're not just delivering an exciting gaming experience but also unlocking financial opportunities for our users in emerging markets."

This partnership marks a significant step in the journey towards financial inclusion and technological empowerment in regions where access to such opportunities has traditionally been limited. With JamboPhones already spanning over 40 countries, the integration of Call of the VoYd further solidifies their position as a gateway to the digital economy for millions of users worldwide.

In related news, last autumn, industry veterans from Zynga, FunPlus, and NetEase received an $8 million investment towards their NFT dinosaur game, signaling growing investor interest in the intersection of gaming and blockchain technology.
