Pudgy Penguins, the Ethereum NFT collection that has since spawned a thriving toy line, is set to enter the mobile gaming market with Pudgy Party, a party game developed in collaboration with Mythical Games.
Pudgy Party will launch globally on iOS and Android platforms in 2025. Unlike typical knockout royale games (like Fall Guys) that are already on the market, the developers say that Pudgy Party will focus on teamwork and shared rewards in a vibrant, accessible environment.
"We are thrilled to bring Pudgy Penguins into the world of mobile gaming with Pudgy Party," said Pudgy Penguins CEO Luca Netz, in a statement. "Our mission is to create an inclusive and joyful experience where players can connect and celebrate together."
Key gameplay elements include dodging obstacles, developing collection strategies, and competing or collaborating with others. Players can customize their penguin characters, as well, and progress from beginner to advanced levels.

'NFL Rivals' Delivers Fun Mobile Football With Just the Right Level of NFT Integration
Condensing the football experience down to a mobile-friendly game is not easy. With so many things going on during each play—all of which you’d want to have control over—the somewhat limited controls of a touchscreen have typically held mobile football games back. NFL Rivals doesn’t have the perfect answer to this problem, but this NFTs-optional free-to-play game certainly makes a solid attempt across iOS and Android. On the field, NFL Rivals dumbs down football to its simplest form. There’s no...
The Pudgy Penguins brand has been consistent in using blockchain throughout its expansion efforts, however. Its plush toys and figurines, which are now sold at retailers like Target and Walmart, are bundled with codes that let buyers redeem free NFT customization items for the earlier game Pudgy World on Ethereum layer-2 network zkSync.
Mythical Games is best known as the developer behind such NFT games as NFL Rivals and Blankos Block Party.
