Oasys is an environmentally-friendly, gaming-optimised Proof-of-Stake blockchain built for gamers by gamers. They just revealed that Square Enix has joined its project as the final of 21 initial node validators on its platform.
Moreover, last month Oasys announced a raise of $20 million and a new partnership with Mythical Games. Oasys already has strong institutional backing and some of the other initial validators on its blockchain include: Bandai Namco Research, SEGA, Ubisoft, Netmarble, Wemade, Com2uS, and Yield Guild Games.
Square Enix and Oasys stated they will be exploring the feasibility of harnessing user contributions in the development and of new games on the Oasys blockchain. Square Enix is one of the most established integrated entertainment companies in the world and is best known as the publisher of many iconic video game franchises.
Square Enix has noted that a major strategic theme for the company going forward would be to explore the development of decentralised games, with tokenised economies built on the blockchain and launched its own Blockchain Entertainment Business division on April, 2022.
