Last week Turner Sports’ Blocklete Games, part of Warner Media, launched the second season of its blockchain-based play-to-earn game Blocklete Golf on mobile last week.

Initially launched as a free online golf simulation game, the relaunch of Blocklete Golf as an NFT-based play-to-earn game aims to draw on the massive growth experienced by the overall NFT market in 2021. Blocklete Games hopes to engage the NFT and sports communities.
