Polium, a company focused on building products and infrastructure for Web3 gaming has announced that it’s launching a gaming console that will support multiple blockchains and NFTs.
Dubbed as Polium One, the console is scheduled for an initial Q3 2024 release and will support the Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, BNB Chain, ImmutableX, Harmony, EOS, and WAX blockchains.
Currently, the only specifications listed for the console is that it will support a 4K Ultra HD resolution at 120 frames per second. According to Polium, the console will feature its own multichain cryptocurrency wallet, and the controller will have a wallet button for users to make trades more efficiently. Security and verification of transactions from the console will be enabled via a fingerprint scanner on the controller.
The console’s price is unknown, but Polium does plan to mint a “Polium Pass” NFT, which will allow holders to claim a console on the initial launch day. Pass holders will receive another NFT, which in the future can be staked for a “PLAY” token, the console’s native token for transacting on its marketplace app.
Polium plans on releasing 10,000 consoles to Polium Pass holders and partners on the Q3 2024 initial launch, with more units manufactured for the public in Q3 2025. It has set a goal of selling over 1 million units.
