Square Enix wants to put in the future increasingly on NFTs, blockchain and the metaver

New Year message and -letters have let pass in review the past year, as a rule, draw lessons and give us a positive view of the coming twelve months. Whether Yoke Matsuda, president of Square Enix, which has managed, may be doubted.

In his New Year's greeting is little mention of traditional video games. Instead, it is about NFT, Block Chain Games, XR and the met averse. How little can inspire the respective communities for such concepts already other publishers had experienced.

Square Enix wants to open 2,022 new business models

Square Enix actually stands for grandiose titles, especially in the RPG genre. Final Fantasy 16 or For spoken, the next big Highlights the publisher is missing from the New Year's letter but each track. The issues are much more abstract:

The Met averse: The renaming of Facebook in Meta looks Matsuda as a sign that it is in the met averse is not just a slogan, but a valid business model. But what exactly is meant by that? Primarily it comes to the combination of different services and technologies. In the letter, the cloud, I, the blockchain and XR are 5G (Extended Reality — that VR, AR, etc.) mentioned as investment opportunities. Matsuda also hopes that the met averse also have influences on the gaming industry is.

NFTs: Matsuda designated 2022 as NFTs: Year One. It should be the year in which creates the technology's breakthrough, and is profitable for publishers such as Square Enix. Despite some negative examples (like the speculative trading NFTs regardless of the value of the goods) he believes to NFTs that establish in the coming years in the company and be equated with physical goods. It is important by its own account, the value of the goods NFT corresponds to its true value.

What are NFTs? NFT stands for Non-Fungible token, a digital property that is unique by an individual identification. The unchangeable Link a NFT serves as a transaction evidencing, deed and certificate of authenticity. During the same items in games so far had the same code, created by NFTs unique digital items that can be traded.

Ubisoft NFTs wants to sell for games — but what does that really mean?

Block Chain Games: Game development is a two-way street more be loud Square. Until now produce Studios games that we could play afterwards. However, the publisher wants active player inside, wishing to participate in the process. Here, the NFTs play a role, because through them, we can actually make money in games. This is intended to grow by themselves titles. Matsuda called decentralized Gaming.

So far, games are targeted only to people who want to have fun. But Matsuda believes that there were people who wanted to contribute to games to make more exciting. Meant could here about mods for PC games to be. Until now, these people would have but no additional motivation to create up to such inconsistent personal feelings of good will and a sense of voluntarism.

How the fans react to the announcements from Square Enix?

As mentioned at the outset, there was so far not good when a publisher or developer studio NFTs wanted to integrate into its games. In the case of Stalker 2: Heart of Chernobyl had those responsible discard their plans even to the Shit storm curb.

More surprising is Matsuda's assessment of the situation. According to him NFTs were accepted with an unmistakable enthusiasm before, but he speaks at least about concerns of the players who are out for fun. Also on Reddit, many users have negatively commented on the New Year's letter. So the message from a user called depressing, while another complained that playing now probably will take over the work of the development team, instead of playing for fun.
