Jon Jordan talks to Mythical Games' CEO John Linden about the success of NFL Rivals, the forthcoming launch of FIFA Rivals and Pudgy Party, and how he expects to hit 100 million wallets in the next 18 months.

[4:26] 65% of Mythical's revenue is now generated from NFT trading in NFL Rivals, up from 20%.
[5:12] We have an enormous plan for NFL Rivals in 2025 with PVP mode, more social interaction.
[7:20] The game design challenge of not being able to reset NFT players at the start of each season.
[9:29] The most significant thing we're done in web3 is the Quick Trade NFT bundling option.
[12:11] On average, there are around 50,000 open orders for NFL Rivals NFTs at any time.
[13:51] NFL as a brand is becoming global, we've reupped our licensing deal for the coming years.
[14:52] Madden has 25 million players. FIFA Mobile had 500 million. That's the appeal of soccer.
[15:54] FIFA Rivals is PVP, with an action real-time strategy style, and with an esports angle.
[18:00] NFL Rivals is higher rated by its players on app stores than Madden.
[21:28] Pudgy Party is a F2P mobile game competing with Stumble Guys. "It's awesome."
[24:20] Pudgy Party might be released on additional platforms [consoles] at some point.
[26:12] "Our goal was to add 3 games in 2025 but we'll signed 4 this month alone."
[26:38] "I think we'll have 100 million wallets within 6 quarters [18 months]."
[28:00] Our focus is experienced game developers, not crypto devs.
[28:58] I don't think the narrative for web3 games is profit, it's about expressing digital identity.
[31:29] Interoperability will be the option to trade NFTs across games using Quick Trade.
[32:15] A lot of the fundamental pieces of web3 gaming are working. The future is about better UX.
[33:04] Today, someone could sell an NFL Rivals' NFT and cash it out to spend on a debit card.
[34:35] We're thinking about how AI agents can help players, but they shouldn't play the game.
