ChainCatcher news: Delphi Digital said on the X platform that in 2025 the GameFi industry’s performance has been lackluster, with funding down more than 55% year over year. The most anticipated product releases have underperformed, and market enthusiasm remains weak.

Web2.5 games are quietly on the rise. These games treat blockchain purely as underlying infrastructure; they typically do not issue tokens and compete based on actual revenue. Studios such as Fumb Games, Mythical Games, and Wemade/Wemix continue to generate significant income while using blockchain technology to improve profit margins and enhance engagement.

This year, Web3-native games have produced six- to seven-figure revenues, but the player base is smaller and crowded with bots. Once incentive mechanisms disappear, user outflows become severe. Web2.5 studios can currently leverage blockchain advantages without forcing users to speculate. The widespread adoption of stablecoins will accelerate this trend, making small transactions, global payment channels, and engagement-based reward mechanisms more convenient.
