Xterio to Launch Gaming-Oriented Blockchain in Collaboration with AltLayer, aiming for Wider Web3 Gaming Adoption

Xterio, a leading Web3 gaming publisher and platform, and AltLayer, an open and decentralized protocol for launching native and ZK rollup stacks, have announced the launch of a game-focused restaked rollup designed specifically for Web3 games.
Xterio is a Web3 gaming ecosystem & infrastructure, distinguishing itself as a gaming publisher with top-notch development skills, unparalleled distribution expertise, and over $80M raised in ecosystem funding. With five AAA games and over 45 gaming partners, Xterio has amassed a gaming community of over two million users worldwide and developed the most successful gaming NFT launchpad. Co-founded by industry veterans like Michael Tong, former COO of NetEase and CSO of FunPlus, and Jeremy Horn, former Vice President of Jam City, Xterio is committed to accelerating the integration of Web3 technology into gaming and onboarding billions of gamers.
The Xterio chain will be run and managed by AltLayer. It will operate as a Layer 2 settling on Ethereum and utilize the OP Stack as the rollup framework with EigenDA as the Data Availability (DA) layer. Unlike a classical rollup, Xterio chain will instead take the form of a “restaked rollup”, a framework pioneered by AltLayer. As a restaked rollup, the Xterio chain will come with MACH – an Actively Validated Services (AVS) offering faster finality with economic security by leveraging EigenLayer’s restaking mechanism. The rollup will focus on web3 and AI-powered games, with plans to build an on-chain ecosystem around AAA games leveraging the $XTER token.
