Square Enixβs Symbiogenesis Web3 game was slated to be discontinued in July 2025, but Sony said the game will now expand to Sonyβs Soneium blockchain.
The moves brings the first Web3 game from a major publisher to Sonyβs fledgling Soneium blockchain. Sony said that game studios and entertainment giants are choosing Soneium as a channel to collaborate, distribute, and connect with a new generation of builders. As more IP-driven titles enter the ecosystem, theyβre not just launching onchain, theyβre choosing a place where cross-game collaboration, interoperability, and creative ownership are part of the foundation, Sony said.
But itβs not clear how much Symbiogenesis will be expanded with new content, as the content hasnβt proven that popular so far. Sony is also connecting the game with others, offering rewards and status to players who complete the Symbiogenesis experience. Those who complete it will be greenlit to participate in the EvermoonΒ andΒ Sleepagotchi games that are also on Soneium.
This initiative begins in the expansive world ofΒ Symbiogenesis, the blockchain-based narrative game from Square Enix.Β
Sony called Symbiogenesis the flagship Web3 entertainment project, blending interactive storytelling, non-fungible token (NFT) ownership, and game progression into a single immersive experience. Gamers can collect unique character NFTs, unlock episodes, and shape the gameβs story. But so far, only hundreds of fans have collected the NFTs.
This initiative involving the three distinct gaming worlds offers players a shared quest, collectible rewards, and a new way to engage through blockchain gaming on Soneium.
Now, players who complete a limited-time quest in Symbiogenesis will receive a commemorative NFT collectible on Soneium, which opens the door to additional in-game benefits in Evermoon and Sleepagotchi.
Symbiogenesis has a sprawling narrative told through 10,000 character NFTs, six chapters, and over 1.1 million words of interactive storytelling. Every NFT unlocks new story content and choices that shape the game world. The chapters one to four of this seasonβs quest is the key to entering the crossover.
Evermoon
The onchain MOBA, Evermoon, leads onchain interactive entertainment with fast-paced 5v5 battles, interoperable NFTs, and DeFi rewardsβbuilt on Soneium. The Evermoon x Symbiogenesis collection introduces limited-edition digital stickers with perks like profile customization and rewards for gamers.
Sleepagotchi
Sleepagotchi LITE launches a hit mini-app on LINE in collaboration with Soneium, after topping charts on Telegram with over a million users in its first month. It rewards daily engagement through light gameplayβand in this initiative, players can unlock theΒ Epic Rarity One-Horned Dragon, exclusive to Symbiogenesis quest participants.
Why it matters for Soneium
On Soneium, everyone is a creator.Β This initiative captures the spirit of collaboration that defines the ecosystem. Symbiogenesis brings IP and story. Evermoon brings competitive depth. Sleepagotchi brings daily habit loops and mobile-native simplicity. Soneium brings the infrastructure to make these experiences interoperable, onchain, and meaningful.
Square Enix is the example of top game publishers choosing Soneium to build a new kind of entertainment layer of the internet, where characters, rewards, and narratives travel across games, communities, and apps.
