Blockchain gaming gets a boost as Oasys teams up with KDDI for integration
In a groundbreaking move, Oasys, a blockchain platform focused on gaming, and KDDI Corp., a leading Japanese telecommunications company, have joined forces to drive the widespread adoption of blockchain gaming to new heights.
This collaboration aims to strengthen both brands' positions in the growing world of blockchain games and decentralized applications (dApps). Oasys, with its goal of creating a world where anyone can be a creator, utilizes KDDI's expertise in combining new technologies and communication to create experiences with 5G communication and AR/MR technologies.
As part of their broader Web3 efforts, KDDI has become a network validator for Oasys. This means that KDDI provides the infrastructure necessary for the Oasys blockchain to function smoothly. In addition, KDDI offers content-related partnerships to support Oasys' growth.
One of the key integrations between the two companies is the connection between Oasys and KDDI's "αU market," an NFT marketplace, and "αU Wallet," a crypto asset wallet. This allows users to sell NFTs on Oasys through the "αU market" and manage their NFTs on Oasys using the "αU wallet." Users can also transfer and store OAS tokens, the platform's native cryptocurrency.
The partnership between Oasys and KDDI is an extension of KDDI's broader Web3 efforts, including the launch of their metaverse and Web3 service called "αU (Alpha You)" in March. The collaboration was further solidified during Oasys' HACKJAM hackathon in Tokyo from June to July this year, where KDDI took part as judges.
Representatives from both Oasys and KDDI discussed the partnership in an interview for Mugenlabo magazine, emphasizing the importance of incorporating a Web3-style service into a blockchain that isn't tied to any specific game. Both companies share a passion for blockchain and Web3 technology and are committed to exploring new opportunities in this field.
This collaboration is expected to benefit both brands and their users, opening up access to KDDI's extensive user base for developers building on Oasys. It's a significant step towards realizing Oasys' vision of a world where anyone can be a creator in the exciting realm of blockchain gaming.
