Boost for Sui as Animoca and Gumi announce new games Darktimes and Brave Frontier Versus
Japanese mobile game developer Gumi is partnering up with Sui Foundation for its forthcoming game Brave Frontier Versus, which is expected to launch in 2025. Leveraging Gumi’s popular web2 IP Brave Frontiers, the game will take inspiration from card games and features a battle system including classic pixel art characters from the Brave Frontier series.
Development will be funded and carried out by Gumi’s subsidiary gC Games with contributions from the Sui Foundation. In addition, the game will be published by OSHI3, which is Gumi’s web3 fan activity platform that’s powered by the OSHI token. The token is currently undergoing a partial migration from Polygon to Sui.
On the heels of the Gumi and Sui announcement, Animoca Brands’ game studio Blowfish also unveiled its new web3 game Darktimes will deploy to Mysten Labs’ L1 blockchain.
Described as a multiplayer brawler royale, Darktimes is inspired by Nordic medieval dark-fantasy. Leveraging Sui, it hopes to create a seamless onboarding and user experience that allows players to focus on fun instead of tech.
Not one of the biggest gaming blockchains in terms of number of games, Sui joined forces with web3 tech provider Stardust earlier this year, followed by the announcement of web3 native handheld gaming console SuiPlay0X1.
Furthermore, South Korean developer NDUS Interactive also announced its high-end third-person shooter Xociety is launching on Sui.
As for Sui Foundation’s SUI token, it’s up 55% in the past year and currently ranks 45 of all cryptocurrencies.
