Line\u2019s US-based web3 venture, Line Next, is partnering up with Sega to develop a blockchain game using one of Sega\u2019s classic game IPs, which is as-yet unannounced. <\/p>\n

As part of its plans to make web3 gaming mainstream,\u00a0Line Next will bring the game to its native web3 game platform Game Dosi, as well as support NFT production, tokenomics and marketing. Earlier in July, Game Dosi launched its first web3 roguelite game Frame Arms Girl: Dream Stadium<\/em> in 180 countries and it\u2019s working on in-house title Project GD<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThrough this partnership, Game Dosi will provide web3 content that anyone can easily enjoy, including Sega fans,\u201d said Line Next\u2019s CEO Youngsu Ko.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This deal should be seen in light of the headlines recently surrounding Sega, based on an interview in Bloomberg with co-COO Shuji Utsumi, who said \u201cThe action in play-to-earn games is boring. What\u2019s the point if games are no fun?\u201d. <\/p>\n

Despite play-to-earn games not being the same as blockchain games, Utsumi was reported by multiple journalists to have given web3 games a bashing, and claimed that Sega was backing away from the industry.<\/p>\n

As is evident however, not only through the signing with Line Next, is the contrary; Sega remains open to further involvement in web3 gaming. The Japanese game developer continues to be a validator for the Oasys blockchain, it\u2019s licensing its Sangokushi Taisen<\/em> IP to one of Double Jump.Tokyo\u2019s forthcoming TCG\u2019s Battle of Three Kingdoms<\/em> and is currently working with other unannounced developers.<\/p>\n

In fact, Utsumi expresses a hopeful outlook on the power of blockchain, saying \u201cFor the majority of people in the video game industry, what blockchain advocates say may sound a bit extreme, but that\u2019s how the first penguin has always been (\u2026) We should never underestimate them\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
