Catheon Gaming and Polygon Announce Preferred Blockchain Gaming Partnership

Polygon to support the launch of Catheon Gaming game titles Onigiri and Cosmic Break onto their network

Catheon Gaming (“Catheon”), the world’s fastest-growing integrated blockchain gaming and entertainment platform, and Polygon Studios, the leading Ethereum layer-2 scaling solution, announce a preferred blockchain gaming partnership. The partnership combines Catheon’s world-class blockchain gaming and metaverse expertise with Polygon’s revolutionary blockchain technology to enable developers to build scalable user-friendly dApps with low transaction fees without the need to sacrifice on security.

Through this partnership Polygon will support the launch of Catheon Gaming game titles, Onigiri and Cosmic Break, onto their network. Both Cosmic Break and Onigiri are successful anime franchises in their own right in their native Japan. However, anime’s popularity with an international audience has grown, particularly with the gaming community. Leveraging on this, Catheon Gaming is able to bring millions of players onto Polygon’s Web3 ecosystem.

“Catheon Gaming is focused on evolving gaming experiences into a Web3 format from Web2, which fosters a player-first economy. At the heart of this lies development quality, where the success in blockchain gaming truly lies”
