🖼 Gaming Giant Bandai Namco Launches AI Virtual Pet NFT Game
Major video game creator Bandai Namco has teamed up with Oasys, a gaming-centric blockchain network, to create an AI-powered virtual pet game around a series of NFT-based digital creatures known as RYU. Developed by Bandai Namco Research alongside Japanese startup Attructure, and published by Double Jump.Tokyo, the RYUZO game launched Wednesday. In advance of the release, 10,000 digital NFT eggs (or MARYU) were airdropped to holders of Oasys’ first series of NFTs in the “Oasyx” project. Upon hatching, the RYU will then transform into a soulbound token, a type of token that is locked to its original wallet and cannot be transferred or sold. Similar in approach to the classic Tamagotchi virtual pet game, the RYU will develop a personality and unlock different abilities based on user engagement. It can be fed and raced, too. According to Oasys, the creatures learn new capabilities thanks to artificial intelligence, delivering a potentially more advanced virtual pet experience than past efforts. Players will also be able to create further generations of MARYU within the application. As it stands, the nurturing phase of the game experience is scheduled to end in a year's time, but the creatures will remain active beyond that.
