The DFINITY Foundation, the developers of the Internet Computer, and United Esports, a leading esports media and marketing organization, has announced Achievement Unblocked, an exciting new competition series that follows the next generation of game developers as they build games on blockchain.
Achievement Unblocked is designed to take a group of aspiring and forward-thinking game developers who want to transition from traditional development platforms to building on blockchain, incorporating GameFi and Play-to-Earn mechanics that bring players closer to games and their developers.
It will follow these game developers via a real time video series as they compete and attempt to launch their dream game on the advanced blockchain that is the Internet Computer. It will set the stage for the next evolution of gaming. All participants will become part of a very elite group of games that are 100% built and run on blockchain, highlighting the opportunity for the thousands of other game developers to unlock new, better platforms.

“My background is in gaming, and my passion is blockchain. This partnership with United Esports brings those two parts of my life together. I am very excited to see what the developers on the Achievement Unblocked program build on the Internet Computer. Blockchain and gaming are going through a very exciting time at the moment. United Esports’ expertise in gaming matched with the Internet Computer’s performance means that we will see some of the best games ever built on blockchain.”
Achievement Unblocked will provide grants, mentorship, technical support and seminars throughout. At the end of the program, the top developers will be eligible to earn the most funding to support their efforts in addition to a monetary reward for rising to the top. They will also be in a position to take advantage of other unique opportunities for future investments.
