Top venture firms Pantera Capital and Animoca Brands are among prominent investors to back the investment.

Other investors backing the blockchain-focused game developer are Polygon, Kenetic, Dapper Labs and Permanens Capital Partners. Rockstar Games co-founder Dan Houser, who is an adviser at the company, also participated in the latest round.
Revolving Games plans to use the funds to build AAA blockchain games, including a second title to add to its Battlestar Galactica. As noted in the press release, the second title will be a blockchain-based MMO game dubbed ‘Skyborne Legacy’.
The game will be anchored on the Polygon blockchain. Skyborne Legacy is set for release in early October.
