Infinity Rising & Anvil Strategic Partnership

Anvil and Infinity Rising Announce Strategic Partnership to Power the Future of Web3 Gaming

1/29/2026

Anvil and Infinity Rising today announced a strategic partnership aimed at building seamless, player-first Web3 infrastructure for mainstream games. The collaboration will focus on invisible blockchain integration, intuitive onboarding, and scalable systems that support true digital ownership without disrupting gameplay

Overview

Today, we’re excited to share a partnership that has been years in the making - one that feels less like a deal and more like a natural alignment of how games should be built.

When you’re truly passionate about something, you don’t just talk about what’s possible - you go build it.

Over the past four years, Anvil has done exactly that. Rather than speculate about what blockchain could do, Anvil focused on learning what it should do - and more importantly, how to make it invisible when it needs to be. That journey led to a deep understanding of where this technology actually shines.

One of those places? Video games.

“This partnership comes with a mutual understanding of one thing; we want to build products for the future of gaming that are disruptive and centered around the end user. Experience is our number one priority. We can't wait to get started!" -Zack (Cash) CEO of Anvil”

Infinity Rising shares that same instinct: players should feel immersion, progression, and ownership - not friction, wallets, or technical overhead. Together, Anvil and Infinity Rising are aligned around a simple belief:

If players have to think about the blockchain, we’ve already failed.

“Just as many of us don’t understand how the internet works exactly, we know how to use it for the ultimate utility.  Same goes for gamers, they don’t have to understand blockchain as long as they easily and seamlessly experience the increased value associated with true ownership of their in game assets” Says Josh Jones, Co-CEO of Infinity Rising.  

Shared Vision

Anvil and Infinity Rising believe the next generation of games will quietly benefit from decentralized infrastructure without forcing players to learn new mental models.

Ownership should feel natural.
Trading should feel expected.
Progression should feel earned.

Not bolted on. Not confusing. Not gated behind technical knowledge.

This partnership is built on the idea that infrastructure should fade into the background while player experience moves to the foreground. The goal is to create systems that support digital ownership, in-game economies, and player-driven value in ways that feel native to gameplay - not like an external layer stitched on after the fact.

Partnership Focus

Anvil and Infinity Rising intend to collaborate across multiple dimensions of Web3-enabled game infrastructure. Infinity Rising brings a game-first perspective and real-world player ecosystems, while Anvil contributes deep expertise in blockchain systems, wallet architecture, and transaction-layer design.

Together, the teams will explore long-term collaboration around:

• Seamless onboarding experiences for mainstream gamers
• Intuitive in-game transaction and signing flows
• Asset ownership and movement between game environments
• Reusable, scalable infrastructure that can support multiple titles

Infinity Rising will act as an early launch partner and design collaborator, ensuring that everything built is grounded in real gameplay needs - not theoretical use cases.

“Partnering with Anvil helps us accelerate key web technology and blockchain integration work. Their proven track record in delivering quality products gives us confidence in this collaboration, freeing up our team's resources to focus more on core game development” says Rob Greig, Co-CEO of Infinity Rising. 

Looking Ahead

This partnership is designed to be collaborative, product-driven, and long-term in nature. As the relationship evolves, Anvil and Infinity Rising anticipate exploring deeper alignment around shared technology, intellectual property, and distribution of future tooling across additional games and ecosystems.

For now, the focus is simple: build the right foundations, the right way, with the player experience leading every decision.

“As an avid gamer, blockchain integration makes so much sense. The problem is that people, especially gamers, have written off blockchain without understanding the value. Together, we can create something truly unique, that showcases blockchains' strong suites without being overbearing on users." -Zack (Cash) CEO of Anvil

Because the future of gaming won’t be defined by louder technology - it’ll be defined by technology that finally knows when to stay quiet.

About Infinity Rising: 

Infinity Rising is an open‑world, multi-verse simulation between a floating civilization in the sky — and Earth below. Players traverse both worlds to explore, gather, craft, build bases and land plots, trade in a player‑driven economy, and respond to rift‑related events and Terra through PvE. Survival and upkeep systems influence pace and markets, while casual and social play—farming, gardening, base building, and co‑ops—stands alongside combat as a first‑class path to progress. With a vibrant 1960s retro‑futurist art direction and a “play your pace” philosophy, Infinity Rising turns individual action into shared momentum.
