Gaming giant Bandai Namco has partnered with blockchain network Oasys to launch an AI-powered virtual pet game called RYUZO. The game features NFT-based digital creatures known as RYU, which hatch from digital NFT eggs. Similar to Tamagotchi, the RYU develop personalities and unlock abilities based on user engagement. The creatures can be fed, raced, and will learn new capabilities through artificial intelligence. Players can also create further generations of digital creatures within the game. Bandai Namco is known for popular franchises like Pac-Man and Tekken, and this is their latest venture into the NFT gaming space.
