As the new football season begins, NFL Rivals is gearing up for the Year 2 updates launching on September 5th. This update is poised to be the most significant the game has seen since the introduction of its NFT marketplace.
Year 2 Update: What’s New?
NFL Rivals is not just any football game; it combines regular gaming fun with the extra layer of NFTs. The game has been highly popular since its release, with over 5 million downloads and over 115 million games played in the first season. With the Year 2 update, Mythical Games is set to introduce several significant new features: * **New Game Modes** New modes like Champions League and Fantasy Draft will become available, making the game more diverse. * **Distinctive Pack Drops** Players can receive special packs with unique items and player cards that enhance the gameplay experience. * **Enhanced Fan Engagement** Mythical Games aims to strengthen the bond between the game and its players by offering new opportunities for fan engagement during and after matches.
Partnership with Kansas City Chiefs
In addition to the Year 2 update, NFL Rivals has partnered with the Kansas City Chiefs. This collaboration makes the game the team's official mobile app, providing branding opportunities within Arrowhead Stadium and joint ventures. Players will receive exclusive in-game content, unique player cards, and special events featuring the Kansas City Chiefs.
NFT Marketplace and PvP Mode
NFL Rivals has always been more than just a game. With the introduction of the NFT marketplace last August, players can trade and use digital collectibles in-game. According to Mythical Games' CEO John Linden, this marketplace added 'another dimension' to the game. The Year 2 update will also introduce a new PvP mode, which Linden believes will be the most significant upgrade yet. Players will compete against each other, adding a competitive edge that will excite the game's community.
As the NFL season kicks off, the Year 2 update in NFL Rivals is set to capture even more attention. The new modes, distinctive pack drops, NFT marketplace, and PvP mode promise an exciting season for players. The partnership with the Kansas City Chiefs further strengthens NFL Rivals' position in the mobile gaming world.
