Ubisoft the renowned publisher behind gaming hits like Assassin’s Creed and Rainbow Six: Siege, is making a new entry in the blockchain space as it joins WeMade’s Wemix blockchain node council.
This strategic partnership positions Ubisoft among the 40 influential partners overseeing validator nodes for the newly launched “Wemix 3.0” network, which has seamlessly transitioned from the Klaytn mainnet and aptly rebranded the older chain and token as “Wemix Classic.“
Distinguished by its Ethereum-compatible EVM blockchain, the Wemix 3.0 operates on a proof-of-stake authority consensus algorithm, blending the principles of a proof-of-stake structure with a proof-of-authority model.
Essential to Wemix’s functionality, blockchain nodes—computers running the blockchain’s software to verify transactions—are diligently operated by partners. Ubisoft, assuming the 26th position in the Node Council Partners (NCP), is affectionately referred to as a “Wonder” by the Wemix team, which plans to enlist a total of 40 such partners.
Ubisoft’s proactive venture into the blockchain gaming landscape, especially in comparison to other major Western publishers, remains steadfast. In 2021, the company stirred controversy by introducing in-game NFTs to Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint, sparking criticism from gamers.
