Nyan Heroes Raises $2.5M in Seed Round Funding

Nyan Heroes is thrilled to announce that it’s early stage seed round of funding is officially closed. The round was led by Three Arrows Capital, Mechanism Capital and DeFiance Capital.

Nyan Heroes also excited to announce additional strategic backing by Sino Global Capital, Infinity Ventures Capital, Solana Ventures, Skyvision Capital, Yield Guild Games and Merit Circle. Their notable angels includes Kevin Lin (Twitch), Thomas Vu (Riot Games), Jihan Wu (Matrixport), Darren Lau (The Daily Ape) and MrBlock.

Nyan Heroes’ vision is to fundamentally change the way that current P2E is done, and provide an architecture that future projects can use and build upon to ensure the continued growth and success of blockchain gaming as a whole.

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to its charity partner Best Friends Animal Society where every Nyan minted will go toward saving a real life cat. The remainder of its sales will be used in conjunction with its seed funding to accelerate the development of its flagship title Nyan Heroes — a third-person shooter battle royale — to rival games such as Fortnite and Apex Legends.

Nyan Heroes is a third person shooter battle royale built on Solana. Their mission is to become the premiere PvP skill-based blockchain gaming project. By focusing on gameplay first, they seek to introduce millions of traditional gamers to the blockchain ecosystem through an already familiar, popular and modern gaming genre.
