Power Protocol, a Web3 gaming infrastructure project developed by Pixion Games, has secured a 3 million dollar investment from BITKRAFT Ventures to expand its multi-game token ecosystem and shared infrastructure for partner studios, bringing total ecosystem funding to roughly 15.4 million dollars by late February 2026. The round has been described in public materials simply as an investment rather than a labeled seed or Series A.

Company and product overview

Power Protocol is positioned as an infrastructure layer for blockchain-based gaming and digital entertainment, designed to support a shared token economy across multiple titles rather than a single flagship game. The protocol underpins the POWER token, which is intended to be used across games, applications, and transactions within the ecosystem, with Fableborne a mobile-first action RPG currently in open beta serving as the leading live example of its model.

Power Protocol aims to connect previously siloed game economies by offering multi-game interoperability, progression systems, live service tooling, reward distribution, and on-chain asset tracking under one protocol layer. This shared infrastructure is marketed to studios as a way to avoid launching isolated token systems for each title while still capturing on-chain value and offering players persistent assets across experiences.

Investor and round details

BITKRAFT Ventures is the sole named investor in this 3 million dollar round, which is explicitly framed as a strategic bet on the protocol layer that sits beneath Fableborne and prospective third‑party titles. Public statements from BITKRAFT representatives emphasize the project’s combination of mobile-first gameplay metrics and a token launch they view as cleanly executed, positioning the protocol as a potential base layer for a wider network of games.

The new capital lifts cumulative ecosystem funding for Power Protocol to 15.4 million dollars, though they do not break out how much of that total is held at the protocol level versus the broader Pixion Games studio.

Use of proceeds

 The 3 million dollars will be used to accelerate both product and ecosystem development, rather than for a discrete token sale or secondary transaction. Planned spending areas include new game content, competitive season design, additional progression systems, and deeper integration of the POWER economy into gameplay loops across existing and future titles.

The protocol team and Pixion Games also signal an intention to use the capital to make it easier for third‑party studios to plug into the POWER ecosystem, leveraging shared infrastructure instead of issuing their own tokens and bespoke on-chain systems. This approach is meant to reduce the risk of single‑game economies and support more durable engagement by spreading utility across multiple products that can join over time.

Funding history and prior backing

Before BITKRAFT’s investment, Power Protocol and its flagship game Fableborne had already attracted backing from a range of Web3‑focused funds, including Delphi Digital, Spartan VC, Mechanism Capital, L1D and others, which are cited across several prior funding summaries. A separate analysis of the broader Pixion Games funding footprint suggests the studio has raised on the order of 20 million dollars from venture firms and ecosystem investors such as Animoca Brands and Sky Mavis, though these figures cover studio-level financing and not solely the protocol.

Ecosystem-focused coverage consistently refers to the new 3 million dollar injection as bringing total “ecosystem” or “protocol plus associated game” funding to around the mid‑teens in millions of dollars. Available token‑market listings primarily detail circulating supply, market capitalization and launch timing for POWER which went live in December 2025, rather than private equity or token financing allocations.

Market and sector context

The raise comes at a time when Web3 and gaming capital has become more selective, with several commentators noting that funding into play‑to‑earn and speculative game tokens has slowed even as infrastructure‑led projects continue to attract targeted bets. Commentary around the round frames BITKRAFT’s participation as part of a shift toward backing protocol layers and shared economic systems, rather than single‑title token economies that proved fragile in earlier GameFi cycles. This narrative has been echoed across multiple Web3 Fundraising Updates, where infrastructure durability is increasingly prioritized over short-term token hype.

Fableborne’s reported traction over 400,000 participants in open beta playtests-has been highlighted as one reason some investors see real product‑market testing behind the protocol narrative, in contrast to purely pre‑launch token stories. At the same time, analyses of the POWER token’s trading show that the asset has experienced sharp price moves and relatively concentrated liquidity since launch, underscoring ongoing volatility and execution risk despite the new capital base.

Outlook

Looking ahead, the team behind Power Protocol has outlined plans to use the funding to introduce expanded player‑versus‑player formats, additional seasonal content, and multi‑game interoperability layers powered by the POWER token. These road‑map items remain company-stated intentions rather than independently verified deliverables, and their realization will depend on continued adoption by both players and external studios.

For now, the BITKRAFT investment formalizes a larger capital pool around a single-token, multi‑game model at a time when Web3 gaming is under scrutiny, providing a clearer test case for whether infrastructure‑centric approaches can sustain both gameplay and token economies beyond a single headline title.
