The upcoming PGA event will feature a dedicated hall for Web3 games as part of the new W3GA (Web3 Game Arena) brand. The hall will feature an exhibition area as well as a conference on the future of the web3 gaming market and a Game Jam competition for top blockchain developers. The W3GA brand and event aims to bring together gaming enthusiasts, developers and those interested in the emerging metaverse trend in the blockchain space.

The event represents a significant step forward for the recognition and expansion of the Web3 gaming market, as it is the first event of this magnitude fully dedicated to the sector. The Web3 gaming market is growing rapidly, but it has not yet had the chance to become well-known on an international level like other gaming markets.

The partnership will focus on exploring the potential for interoperability between the Gaming, esports, Metaverse, DeFi, and GameFi sectors. This is a unique opportunity for enthusiasts of these fields to come together and explore the latest developments in the web3 gaming market.

Michał Bartczak, Metapro Co-Founder & CTO, commented, "I am thrilled that the W3GA event is showcasing the potential for collaboration between esports, gaming and web3 games. Our goal is to bring these different elements together to create a thriving and expanding gaming market, and the event is a testament to the unique synergy that can be achieved in the industry."

Łukasz Wołonkiewicz, Project Director of PGA "As PGA we are delighted to continue cooperation with metapro. We believe blockchain technology gives many new opportunities for gaming industry. I am confident W3GA is going to deliver a lot of positive experiences to the players, developers and game development companies."

Konrad Wasiela, Chief Executive Officer and Director, commented, "At ESE Entertainment, we have been implementing blockchain projects for the past two years. In 2021 we successfully produced Skillz Vault in a global roll out that included China, Brazil, Vietnam, South Korea and Japan. In 2022, we started working with Metapro, which was a sponsor of the Indie Games zone during PGA in 2022 and a partner of the Game Industry Conference. The organization of W3GA is a strong development of ESE's long term business with Metapro."
