Matchday builds casual football (soccer) games and an accompanying web3 ecosystem featuring officially licensed players and tournaments in partnership with FIFA and FIFPRO. As FIFPRO’s official blockchain partner, the company provides players with real ownership of cards and other digital items. Upcoming releases include Matchday Play and Matchday Squads, which expand a casual football management experience and are slated to launch this year. Matchday was incubated by Leo Messi’s Play Time and has a multi-year partnership with FIFA to bring tournaments including the Men’s and Women’s World Cup and professional leagues into its games. The company launched a limited-time Matchday Challenge: FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 Edition, which saw nearly 600,000 signups and two million player cards distributed. The team is led by CEO Derrick Ko and includes Chief Gaming Officer Sebastien de Halleux, Executive Chairman Razmig Hovaghimian and CTO Benny Wong.
