Crypto gaming has mixed Q1 as deals jump, investment totals dip: DappRadar

Blockchain gaming for the first quarter of 2025 has been a “mixed bag,” seeing a greater number of deals while the amount invested significantly dipped, says blockchain analytics platform DappRadar. Web3 gaming projects raised $91 million in Q1 2025, marking a 71% decrease from the fourth quarter of 2024 and a 68% drop compared to the same quarter a year ago, DappRadar said in its April 10 State of Blockchain Gaming report. DappRadar analyst Sara Gherghelas wrote the figures showed “the growing pressure on early-stage startups and hint that 2025 may prove more challenging than previous years — unless broader market conditions improve.” Another factor for the drop in investments in blockchain games is investors are increasingly shifting toward real-world assets and artificial intelligence , according to Gherghelas. Over the same time, the number of blockchain gaming-related deals that closed increased by 35% quarter-over-quarter. Web3 gaming projects raised $91 million for the quarter, marking a 71% decrease from Q4 2024.

Web3 gaming investors go big in infrastructure The lion’s share of funding for Web3 gaming in the first quarter went to infrastructure-focused projects, with most focused on scalable gaming infrastructure, according to the report. Gherghelas said the focus on infrastructure funding signaled that “investor confidence in the long-term potential of Web3 gaming remains intact,” with a few stand-out projects in the quarter, such as those from MARBLEX and The Game Company. MARBLEX, the blockchain gaming division of South Korean game developer Netmarble, has plans for a Semi-Publishing Model to support a wider variety of Web3 games, backed by a joint fund exceeding $20 million with Immutable. Most of the funding for Web3 gaming last quarter went to infrastructure-focused projects.
