Sega has announced to launch of its first blockchain game

The largest Japanese gaming company, Sega has announced to launch of its first blockchain game. The firm has collaborated with another Japanese blockchain development company Double Jump Tokyo to build the game.

According to the announcement, the game will be based on Sega’s Sangokushi Taisen franchise. The first will employ a Japanese scaling-focused project, Oasys to support the blockchain elements of the game.

With a unique architecture optimized for blockchain games, Oasys aims to solve obstacles for gamers, offering fast transactions and zero gas fees and providing users with a more comfortable gameplay experience

The Sangokushi Taisen franchise is a series of online games where players use virtual cards to complete missions. Integrating blockchain elements into these games will enable asset tokenization allowing users to tokenize their cards and trade them.

Sega’s take on the NFTs, metaverse, and blockchain is ambiguous. In January 2022, the company said that it will reconsider the inclusion of NFTs in its gaming platform and module if the customers believe it’s the company’s trick to make money.

However, the company April 2022 announced that it is looking forward to integrating NFTs and metaverse elements into its “Super Game” strategy development project.

The release date of Sega’s first blockchain game is not clear yet. The announcement did not mention any specific or prospective game release date.
