Game companies Sega and Double Jump Tokyo are partnering with Japanese blockchain project Oasys to tokenize assets in the acclaimed Sangokushi Taisen arcade game series.
The game giants’ project will be based on the Sangokushi Taisen franchise, a popular virtual card arcade game in Japan. The structure of the game allows elements such as the tokenization of certain assets and the trading aspect of cards to be implemented on the blockchain. A preliminary release date for the game has not yet been announced.
Also, the companies did not specify how the blockchain will be implemented in the game mechanics. Double Jump Tokyo announced that elements of the game on the blockchain will be supported by the Japanese project Oasys. Blockchain will provide enough scalability to support more concurrent users.
Oasys intends to enter the AAA gaming circle with this and other planned releases. The project is supported by traditional entertainment centers and crypto companies such as Bandai Namco, Sega, Jump Crypto and Square Enix, which have become network validators and are exploring the possibility of launching games on the blockchain.
This month, an Oasys top executive revealed that Japanese gaming giants such as Bandai Namco, SEGA, and Square Enix are looking to implement blockchain and NFTs in future gaming franchises. Sega announced in April that NFTs and the cloud are the future of the gaming industry.
At the same time, the leadership of the major video game publisher Ubisoft, on the contrary, decided to postpone the massive introduction of non-fungible tokens and blockchain into their projects.
