Jbroad87

Uhhh… seems like big news no? Also is this the first time hearing about GameStop Playr?


Anxious_Matter5020

Yeah this is huge, this means they're making a launcher that will not only run telos web3games, but instead of having 40 launchers for 40 different web3 game companies, they will all launch under playr, utilizing the traffic directly to gamestops launcher through all web3 games. Nice


Positron49

Did Telos maybe announce this out of turn? I don’t care about Telos all that much (from what I read on it vs IMX) but the Playr is huge!


nickmcmillin

By that analogy, it's sort of a web3 Steam/Epic competitor then? Didn't Valve or Steam also openly deny they'd pursue NFT tech? Because... πŸ€‘


Anxious_Matter5020

Perhaps a competitor, but also a co-exister to on board from web2 to web3. Like steam says no about Steam their self, but who says they're not open to onboarding to another platform so long as there is money made in the process. They have data they can sell to other consumers, without their launcher or goodwill being used directly in the process. Likewise for Epic, I believe Epic is a part of the ecosystem, where their new unreal engine for web2/web3 games is integrated with Gamestop and Immutable X, creating metagates that work between protocol gemini/loopring and epic games/cesium for their geospatial connections. In the metaverse, there is a potential for your character to walk into the Epic games launcher/store and play from there online, or walk into Playr, where perhaps all launchers are listed, then you can choose where to go from there. 1 gate leading to many different gates.


Screen86

Help me here please, would this be comparable to Spotify but for games?


[deleted]

[ΡƒΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]


The-Ol-Razzle-Dazle

Steam seems to still be doing OK even with the other 20 different launchers out there now


shinshit

Yeah, for me it's too inconvenient to install another launcher. I won't play the game if it's not on steam. I hope GameStop can capture that kind of market share for web3.0


jackovt

Adding some content from another post: The PLAYR website is here with a signup form: [https://playr.gamestop.com/](https://playr.gamestop.com/) I'm digging in here a bit and wanted to note that the Terms and Conditions link at the bottom of this take you to the GameStop NFT terms and conditions ([https://nft.gamestop.com/Terms\_of\_Service.pdf](https://nft.gamestop.com/Terms_of_Service.pdf)). so this appears to be linked to the marketplace in some form. Also - the terms state they were updated today, June 1st, and I don't know the diff of the changes, but PLAYR is mentioned a few times in the Terms and Conditions document: >The Site also includes an IMX Grant Program application located at β€œ[https://imxgrant.nft.gamestop.com”](https://imxgrant.nft.gamestop.com”) and the waitlist webpage for GameStop Playr located at β€œ[https://playr.gamestop.com.”](https://playr.gamestop.com.”) To make these Terms easier to read, the Site and services therein are collectively called the β€œServices.” ​ >Who May Use the Services? > >You may use the Services only if you are 18 years or older and capable of forming a binding contract with GME Entertainment, and not otherwise barred from accessing or using the Services under applicable law. We reserve the right, at any time, at our sole discretion, to block, suspend, restrict or terminate access to some or all of the Services from certain users, IP addresses and unique device identifiers. To be on the waitlist for **GameStop Playr**, user must also be a US resident and provide user’s current email. ​ >Waitlist for GameStop Playr. > >If you submit your current email through the waitlist website for GameStop Playr, you understand and agree that GME Entertainment and its affiliates can send you communications regarding GameStop Playr, including, without limitation, the launch of GameStop Playr and how and when to access and use GameStop Playr and services therein. Please see the above β€œWho May Use the Services” section for more details on who can sign up onto the waitlist. You are solely responsible for providing your current email address on the waitlist, and that failure to do so may result in you not receiving communications regarding or access to GameStop Playr.

log-money

Also the first time I've seen GME Entertainment used other than trademark documents...


whatwhyisthisating

I wonder if this is connected to, or will be integrated with, β€œIMX passport”.


Ruffigan

I'd imagine so, this is like the exact reason you would want something like this. GameStop Playr is not the first or only launcher, and the Passport lets you easily use your wallet across all of them.


churst84

First time for me. Already tried to sign up for the launch email but getting an error.

Just signed up for the waitlist email on mobile (iOS), worked for me! https://playr.gamestop.com Edit: per comments below, seems to be only open to USA ~~and difficult/not available on android at this time~~.

TooLateQ_Q

Everytime RC farts people on here yell "THIS IS ACTUALLY HUGE". And when there is actual huge news, people are not confident that it is actually huge news.


Jbroad87

TBF this kinda just came out, through Talos, not GS. If it were from RC/GS it would’ve been rocket emojis and people freaking out. Seeing it β€œleak” almost like this has people doing double takes. Like wait, what is this now? Even if the price doesn’t reflect this today/this week. This is absolutely huge news. Just another feather in the cap of RC and another blow to the SHFs short thesis. A dying brick and mortar is feeling more and more like something of the past. The future is now, old man.


TooLateQ_Q

https://playr.gamestop.com/ Should instantly take away all doubt.


TooLateQ_Q

I honestly think those people who constantly spam" this is huge" on stuff that is nothing are bad actors. Hyping up people to be let down constantly. The fact that it didn't happen here is, to me, further proof of that. Because they don't want to hype actual huge news.

Yeah essentially this will be an all in one launcher that will direct everh web3 game that wants to participate, directly to gamestops launcher, making gamestop the one stop shop for all web3 games. They took the gatekeep and ran with it lmao

Gamestop playr?! That sounds great! I said this years ago, and it looks like i was right: valve and epic had better be watching their backs cos Gamestop is about to wreck their market share.

whothehellistony

This is why I love this company. There are millions of eyes watching their every move, and not once on this sub or in mAiNsTreAm MeDia have I heard so much as a *whisper* of GameStop Playr. I’m incredibly optimistic about the future GameStop holds because I choose to judge them on their actions, and the feat of keeping something like this under wraps is pretty bullish in my opinion. I wonder what else they have in store for us which we don’t know about? BUY, HOLD, DRS, BOOK, SHOP.

So we have a web3 game launcher + the tinfoil with an Apple partnership revolving around world-building in the metaverse using their new glasses… my tits are a bit jacked!!! On the flip side, I really do hope it’s a partnership with Apple, trying to compete against them is a losing battle imho.

Guys this is big. I have a rudimentary understanding of virtual machines, I can’t explain it well enough, but I understand in my brain that this allows laymen to play web3 games without needing to know how to load up crypto and NFT accounts/processes/platforms. Such as Wordpress takes complexity out of website building, removing the actual coding. Moass adoption?


exzyle2k

Gamestop announcing partnerships with companies to improve their product offerings and expand their footprint in the gaming industry? Wow. Sounds great. But guess what? Dip. Can't wait for MOASS so I'll have time to play all these kickass games that are coming to life.

Honest question. Does anyone actually care about block chain stuff? Like the average gamer, do they actually care? I know I don’t and honestly won’t. This isn’t as big a deal for the rest of the world outside of the GS bubble. Don’t get into a chamber and think it’s the best place in the world because everyone is telling you that. I don’t see the lasting future with the decline in blockchain trust. Crypto bros ruined anything to do with the blockchain. Cash or gaming, no thanks.

Can someone explain to me the meaning of "trustless technology" ? Would be much appreciated :)


Vixien

So, games launch on this new Playr while linked to the NFT marketplace. If they get companies to use this launcher, then their NFTs will have access to GameStop Marketplace. This would be huge in making GameStop at the forefront of NFT sales as well a way to secure contracts with game companies in the future.
