The partnership is a manifesto of our commitment to bridging the Southeast Asia developer talent into Web3 and attracting global Web3 talent into the region. It’s going to be a game-changer in the Web3 world of Southeast Asia.

Partnership to boost SEA Web3 gaming development

ThunderCore is a blockchain platform that provides a scalable and fast infrastructure for decentralized applications (DApps). YGG SEA, on the other hand, is a gaming guild that has evolved into a community-driven ecosystem player, establishing a strong grassroots presence, and connecting and engaging a deep relationship with their community members in the SEA market. For developers, YGG SEA’s massive reach in the region and ThunderCore’s strong user retention skills offer the perfect tools to enter the SEA market as effectively as possible.

The developer program is expected to help YGG SEA open opportunities beyond ‘just playing’ games to its community of gamers & creators within the metaverse; and at the same time, provide go-to-market access for ThunderCore and Blockchain game developers into the region. 

As YGG SEA continues to grow its user base in Southeast Asia, YGG SEA has partnered with over 80 games and has more than 175 K community members, and deployed more than 20,000 scholarships to date. In line with YGG SEA’s efforts to be the friendly gateway into the metaverse for ANYONE, YGG SEA provides language-specific support on its platform. It has a stellar track record of helping games establish a market presence in SEA and features some of the biggest success stories in blockchain gaming to date. 

Southeast Asia is a key market for global economic growth and will be a key driver for Web3 community growth as pioneered in 2021/2022 by Axie Infinity, the region’s home-grown blockchain game. 

Thanks to its battle-tested fast and secure infrastructure, ThunderCore is perfectly positioned to support the development of high-performance Dapps required for blockchain gaming. It excels at acquiring and retaining new users, frequently clocking over 100,000 daily active users (DAU) according to DappRadar due to its entertainment-first approach to growing its ecosystem. This proven ecosystem retention mechanism will help developers retain users and build a strong community around their projects in the long term.
