Oasys, launched in 2022 by a consortium including Bandai Namco, Sega, and Ubisoft, is an EVM-compatible blockchain originally aimed at high-speed, micro-payment on-chain games. To broaden use cases, it combines a Layer1 hub with app-specific Layer2 Verse buses, maintaining a game-centric focus while expanding into real-world asset (RWA) and IP tokenization. The platform delivers about 1,500 TPS and a gasless UX; its hub-and-bus structure supports customized enterprise chains in Asia’s complex regulatory landscape.
Strategic partnerships with SBI Holdings, Rakuten, and Animoca Brands have helped establish a springboard in Japan’s regulatory market, enabling tokenization of real estate, music, and animation assets. With pilots of RWA in Singapore and Hong Kong and a Tokyo real estate tokenization pilot worth approximately $75 million, Oasys aims to tokenize assets exceeding $200 billion on-chain. The platform also enables consumer access by allowing Rakuten Points to be converted into OAS tokens. This approach aligns with Asia’s IP-centric industries and the metaverse-savvy user base, while on-chain records and royalty automation with Animoca help address AI-era IP misuse.
Oasys’s infrastructure supports expanding into animation, music, film, and gaming IP, leveraging its existing game infrastructure and user experience. Emphasizing an Asia-first regulatory stance and strong collaborations with SBC and Rakuten, the project is strengthening its compliance posture and developer-friendly features, including EVM compatibility and Arbitrum Orbit integration, to support a wide range of applications from games to NFTs and IP tokenization.
