Sky Mavis collaborates with AppleCollaboration between Sky Mavis and Apple has been an ongoing project for a year now with co-founder Jeffrey Zirlin optimistic about future developments that better align Apple's policies with web3 companies' needs.
To enable easy integration with third-party marketplaces and allow in-app purchases for NFTs are paramount goals as per Zirlin, despite challenges arising from Apple's restrictions on NFT-related transactions. Inspiration comes from bold steps taken by industry giants such as Epic Games that challenge similar constraints.
'Sky Infinity: Origins' debut on the App Store is poised to drive significant growth particularly among iPhone users says Zirlin who points out that referrals play a crucial role in growing their user base; currently at 70%, sourced from friends and family circles respectively. Presence on the App Store remains an essential factor when it comes to expanding awareness of Sky Mavis within gaming communities.

Thanks to its play-to-earn model, millions were introduced to this game generating an outstanding $4 billion in trading volume with Filipino players earning their livelihood through it. Sky Mavis's visionary approach made Axie Infinity a renowned brand, catching mainstream interest and establishing new standards for web3 gaming and NFT collections.
