The VulcanVerse ecosystem recently received vital updates, including Vulcan’s Tower Defense and Vulcan Royale. The changes aim to make these titles more accessible for traditional gamers who aren't familiar with the way of the Web3, yet.VulcanVerse creatively calls this initiative the Web2.5 integration, and the case for Vulcan’s Tower Defense could be the beginning. In an October 16 <a href="https://x.com/VulcanForged/status/1846574468745011643">announcement</a>, Vulcan developers showcased a UI revamp, improved maps, better visuals, and a fine-tuned XP system. Following these implementations, players can expect a more rewarding experience while playing Vulcan’s Tower Defense, allowing the game to attract more users over time.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_01_34459be1d6.jpg" alt="VulcanVerse-embraces-web-2-5-01.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_01_34459be1d6.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_01_34459be1d6.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_01_34459be1d6.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure><h2>Patches Across the Ecosystem</h2>Following suit, Vulcan Royale was also replenished with a plethora of changes. The matchmaking system now allows players to join existing matches based on the mode and map selected or start a new match if none are available. Before starting a game, players will get to warm-up for a short duration and get familiar with their surroundings.Punches are now on the Vulcan Royale menu, as players can engage in fist-fights by unequipping their weapons. Per the new weapon slot changes, players can now equip two weapons, increasing the overall versatility in gameplay.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_02_7ab7aaedf5.jpg" alt="VulcanVerse-embraces-web-2-5-02.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_02_7ab7aaedf5.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_02_7ab7aaedf5.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_02_7ab7aaedf5.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure>&nbsp;The in-game UI received its fair share of changes to present all the necessary information about weapons, health, and stamina more clearly. While audio queues have always been essential to keep track of nearby enemies, there’s an alternative way now since the minimap will show footstep indicators of nearby players. As for the cherry on top, multiple visual improvements were included in the update, making this one of the most impactful Vulcan Royale patches in recent years.<h2>The Past is the Key to Unlock the Future</h2>These updates aren't just to win over existing players. Vulcan Forge wants to make its <a href="https://funjible.games/games/VulcanVerse">VulcanVerse</a> games more accessible to traditional gamers, and this is a trend that we’ve seen a lot in 2024. During the past year, many GameFi projects acknowledged the need to bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 gaming by creating more welcoming environments for newcomers.<figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.funjible.games/Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_03_5445af856e.jpg" alt="VulcanVerse-embraces-web-2-5-03.jpg" srcset="https://assets.funjible.games/thumbnail_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_03_5445af856e.jpg 245w,https://assets.funjible.games/small_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_03_5445af856e.jpg 500w,https://assets.funjible.games/medium_Vulcan_Verse_embraces_web_2_5_03_5445af856e.jpg 750w," sizes="100vw"></figure>&nbsp;In the past, most players were generally put off by the mandatory Web3 requirements that the games had. Such mechanics include having to buy NFTs and setting up wallets before getting to play the game, causing a high bounce rate in the process. The concept of Web2.5 requires games to be free-to-play friendly, meaning the Web3 elements have to come second. While this may sound odd, the process results in a slower but friendlier transition for players, slightly boosting their retention rate to the blockchain technology. &nbsp;
