Forge Launches API for Game Developers to Engage and Reward Players for Their Ongoing Play and Add Battle Pass-like Features to Games
The Forge API makes it easy for developers to acquire users with rewarding, multi-week quests that attract players to their games and keep engaged for the long term
SAN FRANCISCO — March 14, 2024 — Forge, a leading games rewards and engagement platform is delighted to announce the launch of the Forge API. Designed to empower game developers by providing a seamless solution for creating and managing “battle pass” experiences, the Forge API allows them to reach new gamers, drive sustained engagement, and reward players for their commitment. The full toolkit is available today and interested developers can learn more and get in touch with the Forge team at developers.forge.gg .
With the Forge API, developers can create achievements for in-game events and reward players with virtual items for their completion. This allows Forge quests to support any in-game achievement, and let games reward players for direct in-game engagement. By implementing rewarding, multi-week quests, developers can not only attract new potential players but also ensure engagement over extended periods.
“At Forge, we recognize the challenges game developers face in attracting and engaging gamers,” said Kun Gao, CEO at Forge. “With the launch of the Forge API, we’re empowering game developers to easily create campaigns that captivate players and foster lasting relationships, as well as tap into the growing Forge user base. From crafting immersive quest lines to delivering personalized rewards, Forge is committed to enhancing the gaming experience for developers and players alike.”
A key highlight of the Forge API is its streamlined distribution of digital rewards directly through the platform, which recently announced support for leading gaming protocols Avalanche, Immutable, Polygon, Ronin, Solana, and Sui. Developers can easily distribute incentives, fostering a sense of accomplishment and progression among players.
Further, Forge enables developers to pinpoint specific types of gamers based on their personas and gaming history. The Forge community has swelled to over 300,000 verified gamers since its launch in October 2023, and the API offers unparalleled access to the Forge community.
“Partnering with Forge has been great for our game and has helped to drive substantial interest and engagement in Captain & Company,” said Sam Peurifoy at KAPGAMES. “We love that the Forge API enables us to reward players for not just joining our community, but getting into the game and staying involved over the long term.”
