Abstract
In recent years, there has been an increase in the interest in non-fungible tokens (NFT) to purchase digital art and has shaped a new form of art collecting. The art community has a long history of challenges and opportunities with the commercialization of art. More recently, there has also been an interest in the purchase of game art as investments or collecting. With the advent of blockchain currencies, NFTs have introduced a way for investors, collectors, and game developers to purchase or sell game art. However, the potential of NFT for the games and game development industry is manifold. In this paper, the authors will reflect on the potential of NTF's for game developers and content creators.
