Ras Al Khaimah, UAE, will host the Ortak x B.F.T.H. Arena Awards 3.0 for the first time, gaming technology provider BetConstruct announced. Scheduled for December 12-14 at the InterContinental, the event will bring together the Web3, crypto, and iGaming sectors.
The event is expected to draw a larger crowd and will feature an expanded list of categories, giving more creators a chance to be recognized. Organizers are preparing for an event that not only celebrates the synergy between iGaming and blockchain but also supports the industry’s ongoing growth by promoting every participating game.
This year’s awards will spotlight and promote every participating game, aiming to support and foster growth within the gaming industry. The awards will also feature a new lineup of categories, offering expanded opportunities for recognizing exceptional achievements and contributions.
The journey of the Ortak x B.F.T.H. Arena Awards began in 2023 during the Harmony Meetup 4.0 with the B.F.T.H. Arena Best FTN Game Awards. This inaugural event set the tone for future editions by blending iGaming with blockchain technology, attracting over 50 game developers to compete.
The event highlighted creativity and technological advancement, quickly establishing itself as a significant occasion in the gaming calendar. In 2024, the awards returned with a new identity as the Ortak x B.F.T.H. Arena Awards, and with it came a broader scope and greater ambition.
The event, held before an audience of more than 500 industry professionals and gaming enthusiasts, saw companies like Tom Horn Gaming, Peter and Sons, and Voznisoft take home awards in various categories. The addition of new nominations, including categories for Bahamut-based games, further elevated the event's profile.
