Square Enix Says There Will Be 10,000 Characters In Its NFT Game

Square Enix revealed that its upcoming NFT game, Symbiogenesis, will feature 10,000 characters with unique designs across various races and professions. Their portraits can also be used as profile pictures.

In a new trailer for Symbiogenesis, Square Enix showed off some footage of a floating landmass, but didn’t really show much else, including what these 10,000 characters would look like. The description below the trailer notes that the game will be split into a total of six chapters and that the characters will be sold as each chapter is unveiled.

Symbiogenesis’s official website will launch on March 17. The game’s trademark appeared online last year, hinting at a possible Parasite Eve revival. However, it was eventually announced as a blockchain game, much to the chagrin of fans.

Square Enix’s current president, Yosuke Matsuda, has been a vocal supporter about the company’s foray into blockchain games, even as other companies like Ubisoft and Electronic Arts have slowly reversed their initial enthusiasm on them. Matsuda, however, will be replaced by Takashi Kiryu in June.
