Sui Gears Up to Launch Web3 Gaming Device, Slated For 2025 Release

SuiPlay0x1 is an upcoming handheld device that will let you play crypto games, following in the footsteps of the Solana Saga smartphone as a network-branded device but with more of a gaming focus. Entering a market with competitors like the Steam Deck and Nintendo Switch, gaming startup Playtronis looking to shake up the game by bringing “seamless” Web3 functionality.

The price point hasn’t been announced, but Decrypt‘s GG was told that it’ll be an “incredibly good price” with it possibly even being subsidized with incentives to bring players in. But what is there to know about the device? We’ve got you covered. Here’s everything we’ve learned so far.

The child of a collaboration between Playtron and Mysten Labs, the creators of the Sui blockchain, the SuiPlay0x1 is the first handheld gaming device that has “native Web3 capabilities” built in while also running traditional PC games.
Slated for worldwide release sometime in 2025, the device will integrate the Sui blockchain into the device’s account system. While crypto gaming is a prominent focus, the developers promise that gamers will still be able to boot up non-crypto titles across a range of PC storefronts.
No specific titles have been confirmed for the SuiPlay0x1 yet. But it’s safe to assume a large amount (if not all) of the Sui games will be available on the device.

Some of the most notable games on the Sui network are the PvP tank brawler Panzerdogs, third-person competitive shooter Bushi, and community party platform Byte City.
