METABORA SG, the Web3 gaming arm of South Korean gaming giant Kakao Games, has joined forces with blockchain-focused gaming platform Oasys, unveiling a strategic collaboration aimed at reshaping the landscape of blockchain gaming.
The partnership between METABORA SG and Oasys is poised to introduce cutting-edge gaming experiences fused with eco-friendly technology, targeting Japanese gamers. This joint endeavor seeks to foster innovation, enhance gaming interactions, and establish new benchmarks within the industry.
With a keen focus on Japan, METABORA SG plans to capitalize on Oasys’ robust presence and expansive regional network to drive its expansion initiatives forward. Japan, renowned as a global gaming hub with projected revenues of US$44.41 billion in 2023 and an anticipated surge in gaming enthusiasts reaching 48.2% by 2028, presents a lucrative opportunity for METABORA SG. Leveraging Oasys’ partnerships with major Japanese gaming entities, the collaboration aims to provide strategic guidance to navigate this competitive market terrain.
Vincent Lim, Chief Business Officer of METABORA SG, emphasized the shared vision between his company and Oasys. “Our partnership with Oasys signifies a convergence of like-minded entities committed to propelling the Web3 gaming ecosystem to new heights,” Lim remarked. “Together, we strive to deliver seamless and captivating experiences for players worldwide, many of whom are yet to explore the realm of blockchain-powered gaming.”
Oasys, renowned for its active engagement within the Web3 gaming sphere, boasts partnerships with prominent Asian gaming and technology firms, including Com2uS and Kakao’s blockchain subsidiary, GroundX. These alliances have facilitated the introduction of groundbreaking initiatives such as a digital asset wallet by GroundX and the expansion of its game portfolio with titles like Summoners War: Chronicles and The Walking Dead: All-Stars.
Dominic Jang, Head of Business Development and Head of Korea at Oasys, expressed optimism about the collaboration with METABORA SG. “Our partnership with METABORA SG, facilitated by Kakao Games, represents a significant milestone in our journey towards expanding our business networks in the region,” Jang noted.
Moreover, underscoring its pivotal role in the Web3 gaming arena, Oasys recently engaged in discussions with representatives from the Japanese government to explore avenues for advancing blockchain gaming initiatives. These deliberations focused on assessing the current landscape and unlocking the untapped potential of the blockchain gaming sector.
