MIAMI, May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Pudgy Penguins, one of the most successful NFT brands of all-time, today announced the launch of Pengu Clash, a new blockchain-based game debuting on the TON blockchain. The fast-paced multiplayer skill game offers fans a new way to interact with the Pudgy Penguins IP—now reaching more than 1 billion users on Telegram.

As part of its broader mission to make Web3 accessible and fun, Pudgy Penguins is bringing its universe of adorable characters to the TON ecosystem through engaging mini-games, collectible customization, and delightful character progression. With Pengu Clash, fans of all experience levels can join the adventure thanks to a simple and seamless onboarding process.

In Pengu Clash, players control personalized teams of cute penguins, known as "Pengus," across a variety of fun mini-games including Darts, Football, and Bomber. Each session is quick, replayable, and focuses on enjoyment and rewarding skill. With unlockable gear, accessories, and team cosmetics, the game doubles as a creative canvas where players can express their own style through their favorite penguin characters.

The game introduces a "Play2Win" model that rewards skill and consistency, encourages friendly competition, and does not rely on any chance-based, pay-to-win systems. Players can earn token-based prizes through social tournaments and real-time gameplay, where outcomes are determined by how well you play—not how much you spend.

Built on Elympics, a multiplayer infrastructure designed for Web3, Pengu Clash ensures a seamless, fair, and scalable gameplay experience. Elympics allows developers to deliver real-time multiplayer games across blockchains while offering token-based incentives and robust tournament tools.

"Pengu Clash points to where Web3 gaming is truly headed - toward higher-quality experiences driven by real user engagement," said Tom Kopera, COO and Co-Founder of Elympics. "It's about fun, skill-based gameplay and meaningful token utility. A clear signal that the future of Web3 gaming lies in experiences players actually enjoy."

The launch of Pengu Clash builds on Pudgy Penguins' growing portfolio of digital games and partnerships. The brand previously announced the forthcoming launch of Pudgy World, an online, open-world game also powered by blockchain. Inside Pudgy World, players can explore and customize their digital penguin characters, complete engaging story-driven quests, and connect with a global community of fans. In its mobile offering, Pudgy Party, users can experience a vibrant, Web3-integrated mobile gaming experience. Together, these initiatives reflect Pudgy Penguins' long-term commitment to building a playful and inclusive entertainment brand that connects with global audiences through games, memes, and digital storytelling.
