Mythical Games joins Oasys as initial validator to accelerate blockchain gaming adoption

SINGAPORE — 27 JULY, 2022 — Oasys, an eco-friendly blockchain optimized for the gaming community, has announced that Mythical Games, a next-generation game technology studio, has joined the Oasys ecosystem as one of 21 initial node validators on its platform.

As part of this initiative, Oasys and Mythical Games will work together towards scalable and sustainable growth in blockchain gaming, as well as explore further opportunities for collaboration on game development projects.

Oasys seeks to further increase mainstream adoption of blockchain through gaming by building a future-proofed and interoperable ecosystem with strong industry partners. Oasys’ strategic collaboration with Mythical Games comes on the back of its recent partnership with ConsenSys, as well as a USD20 million Private Sale Round led by Republic Capital, with participation from other industry heavyweights such as Jump Crypto, Crypto.com, Huobi, Kucoin, Gate.io, bitbank and Mirana Ventures.

Founded by a team of veteran game and platform developers, Mythical Games has since created the Mythical Platform, a full-service system for developers to integrate blockchain-based play-to-earn economies into their games. With its belief that true ownership of digital assets will spawn a new generation of games, Mythical Games is strongly aligned with Oasys’ mission to revolutionize blockchain gaming experiences.

Rudy Koch, Co-Founder of Mythical Games, said: “We are thrilled to be joining the Oasys community as a node validator for the Oasys protocol. We are continuing our expansion into APAC by aligning with strategic partners in the region. Our collective focus on bringing Web3 to games makes this an exciting partnership for us, and we look forward to supporting the Oasys team and community.”

Daiki Moriyama, Director at Oasys, said: “Following our successful private token sale round, it is extremely encouraging for us to also announce the support of a visionary partner such as Mythical Games. We are thrilled to be working alongside a team of experienced and passionate game developers who share the same ambition as us in bringing blockchain gaming to the masses.”

Alongside Mythical Games, Oasys boasts strong institutional backing and some of the other initial validators on its blockchain include the likes of Bandai Namco Research, SEGA, Ubisoft, Netmarble, Wemade, Com2uS and Yield Guild Games. With the support of significant players in the industry, Oasys will continue to focus on building better experiences and shaping the future of blockchain gaming.
