ChainCatcher reports that, according to data disclosed by market-making firm Caladan, based on a CoinDesk report, about 93% of GameFi projects are now almost dead. Token values have fallen 95% from their peak in 2022, and funding for game studios is also set to plunge 93% by 2025. Investment in Web3 games has nearly completely dried up, with capital flowing to AI, real-world assets, and Layer-2 infrastructure—leading to a collapse in the gaming industry. Even Animoca Brands, one of the most active investors in the Web3 space, has cut its gaming business to about 25% of its investment portfolio and begun shifting into areas such as stablecoins.

In addition, 63% of Web3 venture capital in 2022 went to the gaming sector, but by 2025 that figure has fallen to single digits. More than 300 games have announced shutdowns, turning Web3 gaming into a cautionary tale about chasing speculation while ignoring product-market fit.
