EASTON, Pa., Oct. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Eightco Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: ORBS) ("Eightco" or the "Company") today announced a strategic investment into Mythical Games ("Mythical" or "Mythical Games") Series D financing, participating in a deal led by Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest and World Foundation. The transaction is expected to close the week of October 20. Eightco ($ORBS) is the authentication and trust layer for the post-AGI world, working in coordination with the Worldcoin ecosystem. This strategic investment reinforces Eightco’s ($ORBS) central role in shaping the future of digital identity and verification. It also aligns with Eightco’s current corporate roadmap to allocate up to 1% of its treasury assets toward venture-style investments that advance breakthrough authentication technologies.

"This investment marks another key step in our mission to become the authentication layer of the post-AGI economy," said Dan Ives, Chairman of Eightco ($ORBS). "Eightco’s vision extends across critical fronts including enterprise and gaming authentication. By partnering with visionary leaders such as John Linden and Mythical Games, we’re bridging digital identity and entertainment, creating a trust framework that scales globally. Worldchain’s Proof of Human and single sign-on capabilities make it the ideal foundation for the next era of gaming and AI integration."

Led by former Call of Duty studio head John Linden, Mythical Games is a pioneer in Web3 gaming and digital ownership, with a growing portfolio of leading franchises including NFL Rivals, Pudgy Penguins’ Pudgy Party, and FIFA Rivals. The company plans to expand its marketplace product to integrate with Worldchain, an ERC-20-compatible blockchain built for Proof of Human (PoH) verification and single sign-on, marking a major step forward in secure, verifiable gaming infrastructure.

Mythical Games’ expansion with Worldchain and World ID will enable seamless interoperability between gaming assets, wallets, and identity, giving players verified ownership of digital assets while reducing fraud and improving user onboarding. Together, Eightco, Mythical Games, and World are pioneering what comes next for AI-driven identity and digital economies. The strategic alignment ensures Mythical’s gaming ecosystem will be native to the same trust and identity stack that Eightco is building for the broader AI economy.

Mythical has three games live already with over 1 million installs each: Pudgy Party (in partnership with Pudgy Penguins), NFL Rivals (in partnership with NFL and NFLPA), and FIFA Rivals (in partnership with FIFA and FIFPRO). These games have over 10 million installs combined and have been featured numerous times by both Apple App Store and Google Play. The Mythical Marketplace have over 9.6 million funded wallets and handles over $400 million a year in NFT sales volume.

"Mythical is integrating with Worldchain to bring identity and trust into the next era of gaming," said John Linden, CEO of Mythical Games. "Our vision is to make every player, whether in FIFA Rivals, Pudgy Party, or NFL Rivals, part of a verified, global economy where digital ownership and fair play are guaranteed. By partnering with Worldcoin, we can connect billions of players through secure, human-verified accounts that work seamlessly across games, marketplaces, and rewards. It’s about scaling real-world identity and on-chain utility together, turning gaming into the largest, most inclusive digital economy on the planet."

"Mythical’s 9.6 million wallets represent an installed base of users that can build on World ID’s over 17 million verified user count," continued Ives. "We expect this partnership and future deals to drive positive step-change functions in the World verified customer base."
