Xterio collaborates with BNB Chain and AltLayer to launch L2, expanding the scale of Web3 gaming and artificial intelligence

Web3 premium game publisher Xterio and BNB Chain are proud to announce their collaboration to launch a brand new game-centric L2 chain, which will utilize BNB as the Gas Token and contribute to the infrastructure of the BNB Chain ecosystem. AltLayer will also support this initiative by providing key technical expertise.

This collaboration further strengthens the strategic relationship between Xterio and BNB, opening the door to the immense potential of leveraging the BNB ecosystem. It enables Xterio and BNB Chain to work together to provide millions of BNB users with rich AI-driven immersive gaming experiences, enhanced through digital ownership. Additionally, BNB Chain will provide significant marketing support to Xterio through joint events and end-user referral programs.

Xterio stands at the forefront of the Web3 gaming ecosystem, possessing top-notch development skills and unparalleled publishing expertise. With five AAA games and a network of over 45 game partners, Xterio has cultivated a global gaming community of over 2 million users. Founded by industry veterans Michael Tong and Jeremy Horn, Xterio is dedicated to integrating Web3 technology into gaming to attract billions of gamers worldwide.

The Xterio chain will be executed and managed by AltLayer. It will serve as a Layer 2 settlement execution on BNB Chain, utilizing the OP Stack as the rollup architecture, with EigenDA acting as the data availability (DA) layer. This rollup technology will focus on Web3 and AI-driven games, planning to establish an on-chain ecosystem around AAA games using the $XTER token.

In addition to integrating multiple Xterio games, the Xterio chain will serve as the backbone of the Xterio ecosystem, providing an entry point to a vibrant gaming ecosystem that allows players to effortlessly collect, own, and trade digital assets in a secure and accessible environment, while enabling developers to seamlessly mint, distribute, and manage millions of assets. Together with the comprehensive Xterio technology platform, the chain aims to make on-chain elements nearly invisible through features like account abstract wallets, seamless off-chain and on-chain systems, low-cost transactions, one-click purchases, flexible payment markets, and launchpads. Besides facilitating transactions, the Xterio marketplace and NFT launchpad platform will use Xterio tokens as a versatile payment method, usable for both purchases and gas fees, ensuring a smooth and convenient user experience.

Looking ahead, the Xterio chain will open doors for game developers, providing them with a complex yet user-friendly solution for their creations. Through the Xterio chain, developers will gain access to the broadest first-party game catalog in Web3 and establish connections with its user base of over 2 million, which is currently expanding rapidly. The Xterio chain promises convenient integration and cutting-edge features, ready to drive the future of gaming.

The core development team of BNB Chain stated: "The strategic collaboration between BNB Chain and the recognized leader in Web3 gaming and AI, Xterio, will strengthen the BNB Chain ecosystem, bringing an exceptional on-chain experience driven by digital ownership to millions of users worldwide. Xterio's pioneering OPRollUp technology on BNB Chain sets a benchmark for excellence, with commendable scalable transaction volumes per second and robust security supported by EigenLayer's innovative re-staking feature. We look forward to further collaboration with Xterio and its gaming partners."

Xterio's Executive Director Michael Tong added: "Xterio is committed to occupying a prominent position in the BNB Chain ecosystem and becoming the most important chain and platform globally, setting the gold standard for on-chain gaming. BNB is a globally recognized mature chain, and our strategic collaboration with BNB will undoubtedly redefine the application prospects of BNB, fostering a thriving ecosystem that attracts users from all corners of the globe. By harnessing the power of BNB and combining it with Xterio's vision and expertise, we aim to establish Xterio as the undisputed leader in the BNB Chain space."
