### Nostalgia Overload

The Arcade truly captures the spirit of the traditional gaming hangout. In the early iterations of our gaming platform, the Arcade will be very "Web 2.0" - cards on a page that when clicked, load up a game. As we iterate through the versions, gamers will see our Arcade evolve into a complex and beautiful interactive space. A place to truly hang out with peers and game - game in the "Web 3.0" era.

The Arcade also offers a space for every game developer to publish their blockchain games to the GMR community. Through our gaming toolkit [technologies](/technology.md), game developers will have an engaged and activated audience right from launch!

### Pathing The Way

As we develop our gaming toolkit, which will offer game developers access to a suite of tools designed to integrate Web3 functionality into games, we will first aim to demonstrate the power of such tools by developing our very own blockchain-powered game: [Battle Leets](/battle-leets/leet/origin-stories.md).

### A Modern Arcade

Through roadmap activation, we are evolving what it means to "hangout down the Arcade". As we iterate through development, the Arcade will relocate to a new home... Welcome to the GamerVerse!
