FUNDING:

$600K of funds for NFT, blockchain gaiming co. Luckmon

Irvine-based NFT and blockchain gaming studio Luckmon announced last month the closing of a $600,000 pre-seed round. Investors in the round include Tapas Media CEO Chang Kim, AAX CEO Thor Chan and Primer Sazze Venture Capital Partners.

Founded in 2021, Luckmon is developing games with ingame non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

“We believe NFTs are a game changer for the gaming market and we are striving to contribute to that type of development in a positive way,” Luckmon Chief Executive David Son said.

NFTs are a “necessary path” for game development for the company, Son added.

With the funding, the company will continue the development of its two NFT titles, Unidragon and Farmmates, with Unidragon taking priority.

Unidragon presales are planned for this quarter with a soft launch in the second quarter, the company said.

Luckmon—which currently counts eight staff members— said it is also “looking to increase its staff numbers.”
