Promoting Blockchain Game Development

The partnership will provide critical funding and infrastructure to game developers, expanding the Oasys ecosystem in Japan. By extending liquidity for its native OAS tokens, Oasys hopes to make them more accessible to investors and gamers, fostering a thriving community. Oasys’ Representative Director, Ryo Matsubara, emphasized that the backing of a financial giant like SBI Holdings is pivotal for the success of their partner games and the broader ecosystem.

This move is part of Oasys’ broader Asian expansion strategy, which includes previous cooperation with big gaming firms like Sega and Ubisoft, as well as agreements with South Korean corporations like Metabora SG and Com2uS. The agreement with SBI Holdings places Oasys as a crucial player in Asia’s rapidly rising blockchain gaming business, as the OAS token is on a significant upward trend.

Since its beginning, Oasys has attracted large gaming firms as validation and collaboration partners. With the fresh capital from SBI Group, Oasys will expand its ecosystem and improve synergies with content and game tokens on its blockchain. Previously, Oasys and SBI Group worked together on several projects, including listing OAS tokens on SBI VC Trade in May 2023 and integrating with SBINFT Market.

SBI Holdings CEO Yoshitaka Kitao expressed delight for the collaboration, highlighting the possibility of extending blockchain use cases. Oasys Representative Director Ryo Matsubara underlined the need to secure money and liquidity ahead of the game’s release, citing SBI Group’s backing as critical to the project’s success.

SBI Group has a history of aiding blockchain and cryptocurrency companies, helping them scale and thrive. The collaboration with Oasys is expected to help Japanese Web3 content reach a global audience.
