What Is Play to Earn Game Development?

Play to Earn game development is the process of building blockchain-based games where players earn real rewards such as crypto tokens or NFTs through gameplay. These rewards are stored on the blockchain, giving players full ownership of their in-game assets. Unlike traditional games, assets can be traded, sold, or used outside the game. This model creates a decentralized gaming experience with real economic value.
