Blockchain protocol Immutable has introduced a new feature to simplify the gaming experience for players in Web3 by allowing in-game transactions. In an announcement on November 11, Immutable said that Web3 games were experiencing disruptions because players often had to approve transactions or interact with wallets outside of games. The new Pre-Approved Transactions feature allows developers to integrate transaction approvals directly into the game interface.
In 2023, Immutable launched its Passport wallet framework with Google and Apple login methods. The Web3 gaming project said the feature allows users to create and restore crypto wallets using their Google or Apple accounts, or with an email address. With the newly announced feature, the company said it has eliminated the need for out-of-game signing and confirmation. According to Immutable, Web3 games should “feel like traditional games,” immersive and uninterrupted. The Pre-Approved Transactions feature allows gamers to more seamlessly trade items, buy from marketplaces, or create new in-game assets.
The protocol said the implementation process requires minimal technical overhead and is simple, adding that developers will have control over the transaction interface, allowing them to match the look and feel of the game. While the feature improves the player experience in the Immutable ecosystem, it only works with assets issued by the game. The protocol said this ensures that it is in a controlled and secure environment. However, there are plans to expand the feature to support IMX, USD Coin, and Ether.
