The second most active blockchain, Telos, has announced partnerships with three gaming companies on Apr 28, bringing blockchain features to games on the Unity and Steam platforms.

Telos' partnership with Blockbastards will run into the network host the company'south upcoming Qudo platform, along with providing marketing and technical back up.

Qudo is a token-based advantage mechanism revolving around proof-of-gameplay that can be integrated into whatever game built using the Unity platform. Users can be rewarded for achieving certain goals, or simply for racking up hours of play.

According to Unity's own figures, over 3.3 billion devices have run games built on the platform in the past year, so Qudo could potentially see a massive audience exposed to cryptocurrency rewards.

The platform allows developers to focus on the gameplay experience, adding cryptocurrency rewards without a need for prior blockchain feel. According to Blockbastards managing director João Abrantes:

"In traditional gaming, we've seen that in-game credit systems tend to make the most money, and now we can offer this aforementioned experience on-chain with Qudo, running on the Telos network."

Farm Game and Expanse X add a competitive element

The other 2 partnerships announced by Telos are with Farm Game and Expanse X.

The Farm Game platform enables betting on games such as Counter Strike, DOTA two and others on the Steam service. Sponsors tin can also create competition matches online by offering Telos (TLOS) tokens as prizes.

Every bit of 2022, the Steam platform supported over 34,000 games and over 95 million monthly agile users.

Area 10 is a social network of free HTML 5 games, built on the Telos blockchain and application prizes in TLOS and other tokens. Area Ten also holds tournaments whereby players pay a small entry fee in the hope of winning more than tokens.

Telos Foundation CEO Suvi Rinkinen expressed the company's desire to support the development of blockchain-based games, stating, "There are numerous benefits to integrating blockchain applied science into games, and we look forrad to working with Qudo, Area X, and Farm Game to ensure Telos helps them maximize their functioning."

However, Telos isn't purely gaming-focused. Equally Cointelegraph reported, the company recently teamed upwards with Genobank to launch an app helping people to access anonymous COVID-19 testing.
