Less than a month after Super Bowl champions Kansas City Chiefs brought the curtain up on the new football season with a defeat of Baltimore, NFL Rivals is going stronger than ever.The officially licensed mobile game from Mythical Games kicked off its own Year 2 season to coincide with the start of the current NFL season, and the <a href="https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/mythos/">$MYTH token</a> has popped as a result: over the last 30 days, its price has jumped by over 18%.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/nfl_rivals_pr_01_ef3a32c33d.jpg" alt="nfl-rivals-pr-01.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_nfl_rivals_pr_01_ef3a32c33d.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_nfl_rivals_pr_01_ef3a32c33d.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_nfl_rivals_pr_01_ef3a32c33d.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure><h2>A Celebratory Second Season</h2><a href="https://funjible.games/games/NFL-Rivals">NFL Rivals</a> has become a popular Web3 game with sports fans, with over 5 million downloads so far. Year 2 will see several new modes and activations introduced as Mythical Games builds on the success of season one.That success has also been reflected by a <a href="https://news.mythicalgames.com/nfl-rivals-kansas-city-chiefs-partnership-giveaway-2024">recent deal</a> inked with the Kansas City Chiefs, the champions having named NFL Rivals its official mobile game for the 2024 season. As a result, the free-to-play game will be advertised in Arrowhead Stadium. A special giveaway is also being run to send four lucky players and their plus-ones to the Chiefs’ home game against the Chargers on December 8.NFL Rivals is an immersive game that compels players to operate as general managers and assemble the best team. Featuring an in-game NFT marketplace, gamers can also make trades to compile the best set of digital collectible player cards.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/nfl_rivals_pr_02_e6d35812ab.jpg" alt="nfl-rivals-pr-02.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_nfl_rivals_pr_02_e6d35812ab.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_nfl_rivals_pr_02_e6d35812ab.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_nfl_rivals_pr_02_e6d35812ab.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure><h2>New Features Introduced</h2>Early Season 2 highlights have included the launch of the new Radiant Series, a program that introduces gemstones to the game. Each player in the program has been tagged with one of four possible gemstones (Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and Amethyst) of various rarity, each of which has focused weeks – meaning the card generates extra bonuses.A fifth gemstone (Diamond), meanwhile, is reserved for weekend hero event cards (and are the most coveted NFL players), while the Mythical version of the card, found only in the program store, is designated as Black Diamond. The card art for NFL Rivals is handcrafted, meaning each card has a distinct, unique look to it.This season will also see the introduction of a Player-vs-Player (PvP) mode, which it is hoped will set the scene for greater competition between rival players.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/nfl_rivals_pr_03_4c0c2b0408.jpg" alt="nfl-rivals-pr-03.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_nfl_rivals_pr_03_4c0c2b0408.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_nfl_rivals_pr_03_4c0c2b0408.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_nfl_rivals_pr_03_4c0c2b0408.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure>&nbsp;The feel-good factor around <a href="https://nfl.rivals.game/">NFL Rivals</a> (and the commencement of the new season, generally) has been undeniable, and it has helped to propel Mythical Games’ native token, which is riding the crest of a wave.Within NFL Rivals, the main utility of $MYTH is for item trading – although that utility may broaden in the years to come. An <a href="https://news.mythicalgames.com/game-utility-natural-staking-effect-tokens">article</a> published by Mythical Games last December hinted at future use-cases, noting that “once gamers can extensively buy, sell, and trade game items within and across games, the possibilities for $MYTH utility become even broader, including things like rewarding streamers and content creators, integrating into social gaming apps, fostering broader community participation, governance and much more."&nbsp;
