OVERTAKE Adds Five New Games, Crafting a Dedicated Trading Market Experience for Each

OVERTAKE, a gaming asset trading platform, has expanded its marketplace system by adding five new games, each with its own dedicated and customized trading market UI/UX. The designs are closely aligned with each game’s structure, asset types, and economic systems to ensure a seamless and integrated trading experience. The newly supported games include: - Diablo IV - RuneScape 3 - Old School RuneScape - EA Sports FC 26 - Aion 2 Unlike generic marketplaces that use a uniform template, OVERTAKE introduces tailored interfaces that reflect each game’s in-game item organization, value logic, and trading conventions. This approach ensures the platform is fully prepared in terms of functionality and user experience before official trading goes live. Each game features unique mechanics, asset structures, and trading rules, so OVERTAKE provides independent UI/UX for item categorization, listing, pricing, and navigation—all adapted to the specific economic system of the game. This helps players engage more intuitively, reduces barriers to use, and builds trust in the marketplace. The expansion strengthens OVERTAKE’s underlying multi-game marketplace architecture, allowing it to support highly diverse in-game economies while maintaining overall usability and consistency. The new titles join existing supported games like Path of Exile, Path of Exile 2, and Last Epoch, forming a growing foundational ecosystem for the platform. Designed for scalability, usability, and long-term growth, OVERTAKE uses a “unified platform base + game-specific design” model to efficiently onboard new games while preserving their unique identity and trading experience. More games and dedicated marketplaces are in active development.

How is the Once-Booming Metaverse Faring Now?

The metaverse industry in 2025 shows a mixed and evolving landscape, moving past the initial hype into more differentiated and practical developments. Key areas like immersive gaming platforms continue to thrive—Roblox hit 151.5 million daily active users, though it downplays the "metaverse" label in favor of terms like "global gaming ecosystem." Similarly, Fortnite emphasizes open, interoperable experiences with strong third-party content engagement. In contrast, metaverse social platforms struggle. Meta’s Horizon Worlds remains niche with under 200K MAU, while some platforms like VRChat grow steadily. Rec Room faced significant layoffs due to challenges in scaling quality content. Hardware sees divergence: Apple’s Vision Pro targets the high-end but remains niche, Meta’s Quest leads the mass market, and lightweight AR glasses like Ray-Ban Meta gain traction. Industrial metaverse applications are growing robustly, with NVIDIA’s Omniverse and enterprise digital twin use cases expanding in manufacturing, healthcare, and urban planning. Avatar platforms like ZEPETO and Ready Player Me continue evolving, with the latter acquired by Netflix. Crypto and NFT-based metaverses like Decentraland and The Sandbox remain stagnant with low activity, despite efforts like Yuga Labs’ Otherside launch. Overall, the metaverse is maturing with clear winners in gaming and enterprise, while social and crypto segments face structural challenges.

Unleashing X402 with Yooldo: Revolutionizing the Web3 Gaming Experience

Yooldo, a Web3 gaming platform focused on user convenience and innovative business models, has integrated the X402 protocol into its MCP server. This integration, now in testing and soon to be available for public testing, aims to revolutionize the user experience by enabling seamless, low-cost micropayments directly within games. As one of the first platforms to adopt X402 in gaming, Yooldo will support Base as a core chain, allowing players to enjoy smoother and more efficient in-game transactions. X402 is a breakthrough protocol that embeds a payment layer directly into HTTP, enabling instant micropayments within web requests and eliminating the friction of traditional payment systems. Through Yooldo MCP server, payments for game resources are automated. When a user action requires payment, the system verifies and processes it in real-time, granting immediate access to resources without complex wallet interactions or manual approvals. This allows developers to focus on gameplay rather than payment complexities. This upgrade positions Yooldo at the forefront of Web3 gaming economies, facilitating natural and effortless micropayments. It represents a significant leap in how players interact with game economies and exchange value securely. Additionally, Yooldo offers accessible services for other developers looking to integrate X402 and MCP, reinforcing its role as a convergence platform for AI, gaming, and DeFi. Supported by Consensys, Linea, and other partners, Yooldo is a cross-chain Web3 gaming platform with over one million registered users, driven by the $ESPORTS token. Since 2021, the team has been delivering innovative solutions, leveraging more than a decade of hackathon experience to redefine GameFi for both Web2 and Web3 players.
