Mysten Labs, the developer of the Sui public chain, launched the first Web3 native handheld game console SuiPlay0x1 today (3rd). Pre-orders are now open and it is expected to be shipped in the first half of 2025.
Pre-order price is $599, payment must be made in cryptocurrency
The official website states that SuiPlay0x1 is currently priced at $599 (originally priced at $649), with prices ranging between 512GB and 1TB Steam Decks. It should be noted that if you are interested in pre-ordering, you can currently only use Sui, Ethereum or Solana for payment. Legal currency payments are not currently accepted.
Officials stated that SuiPlay0X1 will be compatible with multiple mainstream game platforms after its launch, including games on Epic Games and Steam platforms. Adeniyi Abiodun, chief product officer at Mysten Labs, said in a statement:
SuiPlay0X1 will demonstrate that games that seamlessly incorporate blockchain technology look and feel no different than traditional web2 games - and will show gamers around the world that, with blockchain technology, player ownership can provide deeper, more A more engaging gaming experience without compromising their fun.
Can I get airdrops if I buy a handheld console?
In addition, the official said that the first 1,000 pre-orders will also receive the soul-bound NFT "Eternal", which will provide special rewards and benefits. Purchases are limited to 10 units per person, and shipments are scheduled to occur in the first half of 2025.
Since pre-ordering SuiPlay0x1 can also get a soul-bound NFT airdrop, the community speculates that there may be the possibility of airdrops in the future. After all, the Saga mobile phone launched by Solana has received widespread market attention due to the wealth explosion caused by airdrops.
As for why develop a handheld game console? Mysten Labs says that everyone already has a phone, and many people don’t want to give up their phone to buy one with better encryption, so they are more optimistic about a handheld game console that can play any game.
