Xterio, a leading Web3 games publisher and platform, and AltLayer, an open and decentralized protocol for running native and ZK rollup stacks, announced the launch of a gaming-focused restaking rollup designed specifically for Web3 games.
Xterio is a Web3 gaming ecosystem and infrastructure that distinguishes itself as a game publisher with leading development technology, unparalleled distribution expertise, and over $80 million raised in ecosystem funding. With five AAA games and over 45 gaming partners, Xterio has amassed a gaming community of over 2 million users worldwide and developed the most successful gaming NFT launchpad. Co-founded by industry veterans such as Michael Tong, former COO of NetEase and CSO of FunPlus, and Jeremy Horn, former VP of Jam City, Xterio is dedicated to integrating Web3 technology into games and onboarding billions of gamers.
The Xterio chain is run and managed by AltLayer. It operates as a layer 2 settlement on Ethereum and uses EigenDA as the data availability (DA) layer, leveraging the OP stack as a roll-up framework. Unlike traditional rollups, the Xterio chain takes the form of a “restaked rollup,” a framework pioneered by AltLayer. As a re-stake rollup, the Xterio chain comes with MACH, an Actively Validated Services (AVS) that leverages EigenLayer’s re-staking mechanism to provide faster finality with economic security. Rollup will focus on web3 and AI-based games, with plans to build an on-chain ecosystem around AAA games leveraging the $XTER token.
In addition to being integrated into multiple Xterio titles, the Xterio Chain will serve as the backbone of the Xterio ecosystem, providing a gateway to a vibrant gaming ecosystem and allowing players to easily collect, own, and trade digital assets in a safe and accessible environment. Empowers developers to seamlessly create, deploy, and manage millions of assets. Together with the comprehensive Xterio technology platform, the chain plans to make the on-chain element virtually invisible thanks to account abstraction wallets, seamless off-chain and on-chain systems, low-cost transactions, one-click purchases, flexible payment marketplaces, and launchpads. more. In addition to facilitating transactions, the Xterio Marketplace and NFT Launchpad adopt the Xterio token as an accepted versatile payment method for both purchases and gas fees, ensuring a seamless and convenient user experience.
In the future, the Xterio Chain will open the door to game developers looking for sophisticated yet user-friendly solutions to power their creations. The Xterio Chain gives developers access to the broadest catalog of first-party games on Web3 and leverages a current and rapidly growing user base of over 2 million users.
Promising easy integration and cutting-edge features, the Xterio Chain is ready to drive the future of gaming.
Yaoqi Jia, CEO of AltLayer, said: “Xterio serves as a strong and respected platform for numerous highly regarded content partners in the gaming space. As the nature of games evolves and the need for higher-performance game mechanics, game economies, and in-game transactions increases, we are pleased that Xterio is adopting Rollup to strengthen the technical capabilities of its products. With MACH, AltLayer’s new re-staking rollup product, Xterio will enjoy much faster final features and the security built using EigenLayer’s re-staking mechanism, ultimately enabling a better gaming experience for both developers and players.”
Michael Tong, CEO of Xterio, said: “Through our collaboration with AltLayer, Xterio is leading the development of a cutting-edge blockchain infrastructure to facilitate Web3 gaming titles and expand their availability to partners and collaborators. By leveraging the extensive ETH ecosystem and solving critical user issues such as gas fees and fast transaction finality, Xterio is poised to emerge as a leader in high-quality Web3 and beyond.”
