This response was met with disappointment by many, as the gaming community has been vocally opposing the integration of blockchain games and NFT projects within the industry.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWe have organized our pipeline so that major title launches will not be concentrated solely in FY2024\/3. We aim to have a well-distributed array of new releases in FY2025\/3 and beyond.
