When it comes to tech innovation, gaming serves as a sandbox for developers to explore new technologies. Christian Thompson, the chief information security officer at Mysten Labs, shared insights during the Future Blockchain Summit in Dubai about the company’s upcoming hardware gaming device, “SuiPlay0X1.”
Thompson emphasized that gaming is a vital playground for technologists to delve into the Web3 space, which integrates technologies like artificial intelligence, decentralized finance, and non-fungible tokens. He stated that gaming allows Mysten Labs to experiment and implement these cutting-edge technologies, making it more than just a recreational activity.
At the summit, Mysten Labs announced the launch of the SuiPlay0X1, a hardware Web3 handheld gaming device set to be released in 2025. This device will enable users to enjoy games built on the Sui blockchain and PC games, offering a seamless gaming experience.
