One of the biggest names in gaming, Square Enix ($SQXNF) (Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Quest, Tactics Ogre, etc.), partnered with SBI Holdings to purchase the crypto gaming company Gumi – a deal worth $53 million.
The move is another step in Square Enix’s new forward-focused mission to introduce user-created content and NFTs into play-to-earn and collaborate-to-earn business models.
SBI says they are considering creating a blockchain gaming platform. In the meantime, the Gumi-created tokens/NFTs will be hosted on Bitpoint Japan and SBI VC Trade exchanges. ⚔️
