We had previously talked about Symbiogenesis when Square Enix filed a trademark regarding the project in October 2022, and multiple whispers spread across the industry for a potential “Parasite Eve” return.
Of course, these whispers were rejected by Square Enix, saying that Symbiogenesis was not related to the 1998 action RPG.
It was yesterday 15th of February, when Square Enix, the company behind popular gaming titles such as Final Fantasy and Rise of the Tomb Raider, announced full details about Symbiogenesis. This new art project will leverage the Polygon network to offer players fast, secure, and highly sustainable transactions!
Symbiogenesis will offer a unique experience built around digital collectible art that is tied to a storyline players will unfold in a self-contained world. The story evolves with each strategic move a player makes. The project is set on a mysterious floating continent where unique storylines unravel based on information obtained by holding digital collectible arts that represent different characters. Players can unlock numerous engaging stories about this secretive world and its inhabitants by holding or trading digital collectible arts and can earn them by completing various missions.
Talking about the collaboration with Square Enix: “Our latest collaboration just goes to show that Web3 is decisively getting more and more traction among the world’s largest developers, proving yet again that this innovative stack of technologies and the benefits they bestow have massive potential when it comes to gaming,” said Urvit Goel, Vice President of Global Games and Platform Business Development at Polygon Labs
Talking about the dynamic Web3 experience: “Symbiogenesis was designed from the ground up on the blockchain and is designed to provide an exceptional experience for both community building and trading,” said Symbiogenesis producer, Naoyuki Tamate, Square Enix
