Pi Network has made a significant leap towards being positioned centrally in Web3 gaming. The project recently announced a strategic partnership with CiDi Games, a gaming platform developing games connected with Pi for tens of millions of so-called ‘Pioneers.’

The partnership is reinforced by the investment by Pi Network Ventures, which shows a strong commitment from Pi for the scaling of the gaming space within the network. With the reach of Pi and the capabilities of CiDi Games, a new era is about to begin in the field of accessible and engaging digital experiences.

Gaming’s Natural Fit in the Pi Ecosystem

Gaming has always remained an area of interest for Pi, with the network providing tools, hackathons, and monetization options for developers in this regard. Games like FruityPi have already demonstrated the use of Pi in terms of payments, wallet functionality, and the Pi Ad Network.

The H5 Game Platform offered by CiDi Games will permit the possibility of social games and will use Pi as a core channel for transactions and rewards within games.

This would be beneficial for Pi, and it will increase its usage because a use-case-driven innovation cycle will be established with increased engagement with Pi.

The open framework being built by CiDi Games will further offer APIs and infrastructure support, helping developers develop games connected to Pi at a larger level.

Pi Network Ventures Drives Ecosystem Expansion

Pi Network Ventures is an important part of developing the network’s ecosystem. Projects such as CiDI Games help Pi reach teams with adequate expertise to offer platform-level value, thereby propelling mainstream use cases.

This multifaceted strategy combines grassroots development, incubations, support for SDK, and monetization frameworks so that the growth of the network is sustainable and user-focused.

The initial form of the Pi-integrated gaming platform is expected to be ready for testing in Q1 2026, with a priority on performance, user experience, and alignment with the ecosystem.

Through its investment in CiDI Games, Pi Network is continuing to leverage gaming as a key influencer for engagement and innovation within its worldwide ecosystem.
