Growing the Crypto Gaming Space in Japan: Oasys Partners with SBINFT Market
Gaming-focused blockchain network Oasys has set its sights on expanding the crypto gaming industry in Japan through a strategic partnership with SBINFT Market, an NFT marketplace operated by a subsidiary of SBI Group, a renowned Japanese financial powerhouse based in Tokyo.
Oasys, a blockchain platform that has attracted interest from major players in the traditional video game sector such as Ubisoft, Bandai Namco, and Sega, is actively working to foster the growth of the emerging blockchain gaming market in Japan.
Enhanced Ecosystem and Monetization Opportunities
The collaboration with SBINFT Market now allows for the inclusion of assets from Oasys’ Hub-Layer (layer-1) and MCH Verse (layer-2) blockchains, in addition to the initial integration with Oasys’ HOME Verse. This integration empowers developers on Oasys to offer their NFTs for sale on the marketplace, subject to platform approval.
Director of Oasys, Daiki Moriyama, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership by stating, “SBINFT Market’s support for Oasys’ Hub-Layer and MCH Verse significantly enhances our ecosystem, providing users and developers with broader opportunities for monetization and engagement within the blockchain gaming space.” He further added, “We are thrilled to strengthen our presence in Japan, introducing our innovative gaming-focused blockchain solutions to one of the most forward-thinking markets globally.”
It is important to note that only NFTs created by authorized artists and Oasys-affiliated providers are eligible for listing on SBINFT Market. Launched in 2021, SBINFT Market showcases tokenized assets spanning various categories such as digital art, music, in-game items, and event tickets. Transactions on the platform can be conducted using cryptocurrencies as well as credit cards, with support for NFTs on Ethereum and Polygon.
Key Projects and Offerings
Notable projects within the Oasys network include the highly anticipated game Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles developed by Ubisoft, the renowned creator of the Assassin’s Creed series, along with Oasys’ own OASYX NFT collection.
By forging this partnership and expanding its reach into the Japanese market, Oasys is poised to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of blockchain gaming, offering a new realm of possibilities for developers, users, and enthusiasts alike.
