Oasys and GMO Media Join Forces to Introduce a New Verse on Oasys

In an exciting development for the blockchain gaming industry, Oasys, the game-focused blockchain platform, has announced a strategic collaboration with GMO Media, a subsidiary of the Japanese internet giant GMO Internet Group. The partnership aims to bring forth a groundbreaking venture known as “GESOTEN Verse” (tentative name) within the Oasys ecosystem. Moreover, three thrilling titles have been confirmed for release in December 2023, coinciding with the unveiling of this new Verse.

GMO Media entered the cryptocurrency arena back in 2014, and since then, it has been actively involved in technical developments using smart contracts, offering IEO (Initial Exchange Offering) support, and providing various other crypto-related services. The forthcoming “GESOTEN Verse” represents a significant step forward as it will enable users of the “GESOTEN by GMO” gaming platform to effortlessly engage with blockchain games while utilizing their existing platform IDs.

Unlocking the Future of Gaming

“GESOTEN by GMO” has previously established partnerships with numerous domestic point services and e-commerce platforms. It is now setting the stage for a novel ecosystem where gamers can earn cryptocurrencies and various rewards points while enjoying their favorite games. The initial lineup of titles set to be released in conjunction with “GESOTEN Verse” includes the following:

It also seamlessly integrates with GMO Media-operated services like “Point Town by GMO,” providing players with the ability to accumulate points while enjoying their gaming experiences.

Oasys, on the other hand, is a blockchain project with a laser focus on the gaming industry. Operating under the mantra of “Blockchain for Games,” Oasys boasts a network of over 20 validators, including prominent gaming companies such as Bandai Namco Research and Web3 innovators.

Oasys utilizes a PoS (Proof of Stake) consensus mechanism that factors in environmental sustainability.
