Japanese video game company Square Enix has announced its NFT (non-fungible token) project in partnership with Enjin, an NFT company that will store Square Enix\u2019s tokens on its Efinity blockchain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A digital collection of cards celebrating the 25th anniversary of Final Fantasy 7 will be released on the cross-chain network Efinity and available to those who purchase items from the physical collection, expected to launch in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consumers can now pre-order a physical action figure that comes with a code redeemable for a digital NFT. There will also be physical trading cards that similarly have a digital NFT component available for pre-order later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Enjin states it is a “destination for eco-conscious blockchain [users]”, that it “provides environmentally-friendly solutions for building decentralised gaming products”, and that it is “committed to carbon-neutral NFTs” (by 2030).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“This partnership marks a coming-of-age phase for digital assets and entertainment; Square Enix, an esteemed developer with iconic intellectual property, is paving the way for the industry,\u201d Enjin executive Witek Radomski said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The NFT collection follows an address from Square Enix president Yosuke Matsuda at the start of the year where he expressed hope that NFTs and blockchain technology would become a “major trend” in gaming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
