Although Polker is now live, they previously granted 500 individuals an early access copy of their game. Everyone was ecstatic to get their hands on rare ‘Beta’ NFTs (500 only), and players were thrilled to have a sneak peek at the game before the launch roll out commenced. Polker’s team is now encouraging everyone with a Windows PC and sufficient hardware to contact them as soon as possible if they applied for early access but were not chosen at the outset. Polker also stated that they would be adding 1,000 more members to the early access program as the next step of their roll out.
Secondly, at 1:00 p.m. UTC on March 21st, the Polker NFT sale (FCFS) on the GenShards Market ended. Each NFT sold is completely operational in the game and aids the project’s broader intent of further developing the ecosystem. Polker also recently attended the NFT Los Angeles event, which took place between March 28th and March 31st, 2022.
What is Polker anyway?
Polker is the world’s first blockchain-based poker NFT, employing Unreal Engine 4 to provide a true gaming experience that is also very highly interactive in nature. It is based on time-tested fair methodology and TRNG technology. Polker is also not acting alone either, having formed ties with Polygon for its NFTs, as well as collaborations with Master Ventures and Chainlink. Polker was recently acknowledged by Akon, one of the most popular music celebrities of all time. Polker has additionally teamed up with Refinable, and the official Polker marketplace for non-fungible tokens will surely play an important role in its broader ecosystem and overall success in the long term.
Polker intends to collaborate with a number of well-known platforms and be connected to a range of streaming channels that have advanced VR capabilities and breathtaking 3D characters, aesthetics, and digital settings. Polker seeks to be the first blockchain NFT game with metaverse aspects that is completely free to play and supports P2E. Moreover, the company will begin production on new games within a year, with an emphasis on VR and mobile development in 2022.
Extending PKR staking
Polker started allowing everyone to stake their PKR on Ethereum on September 25th, 2021, and through BSC on December 25th, 2021. Polker has since decided to extend the two staking pools for a few more months owing to the team’s continued growth on early access and the game nearing full completion. Also, Polker has likewise completed many of the targets outlined in the roadmap, having completed four successful Beta’s and is now in the final phases of development as well.
Furthermore, customers who already staked their PKR in the Ethereum or Binance Smart Chain pools need not withdraw or redeposit since the staking contract would be updated on a daily basis and they will keep collecting PKR coins regardless. This is great because it means that the users do not actually need to do anything and they can continue staking as much as desired.
Needless to say, Polker has managed to do well for itself thus far. There has been plenty of development already and more will come as the year progresses. All in all, Polker is a project that everyone should be keeping an eye on going forward.
