Parasol and Jokers to Bring Classic Gaming IP to Sui with SEGA-Licensed CODE OF JOKER: EVOLUTIONS
Mysten Labs subsidiary welcomes first of its lineup of gaming partners to Sui ecosystem.
Parasol, an end-to-end platform enabling game developers to seamlessly integrate blockchain infrastructure into their games, and recently announced subsidiary of Mysten Labs, has confirmed SEGA-licensed CODE OF JOKER: EVOLUTIONS by Jokers Incorporated is coming to Sui.
CODE OF JOKER: EVOLUTIONS by Jokers Inc. is the newest release in the CODE OF JOKER series, a popular digital trading card game released by SEGA Corporation in 2013. Now powered by Sui, CODE OF JOKER: EVOLUTIONS is bringing its digital trading cards onchain showcasing the series’ IP along with forthcoming collaborations to be announced. Players will be able to prove digital ownership, trade, and showcase their collections thanks to Sui’s underlying infrastructure. Code of Joker: Evolutions will be released on iOS, Android, and Web at the end of summer of 2025.
“From our first conversation on what a digital experience of CODE OF JOKER: EVOLUTIONS would look like, we knew that we wanted to match the physical feeling of opening a new card pack,” said Takashi “Gin” Mizouka, Co-founder of Jokers Inc. “Sui was the only blockchain that could make this vision a reality, and we are thrilled to be working alongside the Parasol team on the first of many collaborations. Jokers has already secured multiple licensing agreements with major Japanese character IPs, and we’re excited to bring them onto Sui, further expanding the Web3 gaming landscape.”
“When we met the Parasol team a year ago, it quickly became clear that they shared our belief that gaming will be at the forefront of Web3 transformation, and that gamers will be among the first to adopt the decentralized economy,” said Evan Cheng, CEO and Co-Founder of Mysten Labs. “With its wide span of SEGA Corporation IPs, CODE OF JOKERS: EVOLUTIONS is the perfect first collaboration between classic gaming IP and blockchain-powered gaming.”
“Our work with CODE OF JOKER: EVOLUTIONS is a labor of love from a team that grew up on classic Japanese gaming,” said Kai Chen, CEO of Parasol. “Sui is the only blockchain capable of providing the technical support our gaming partners are looking for, and we’re very grateful for Jokers Inc.'s and Sega’s support in our flagship endeavor. There’s much more to come.”
The Sui ecosystem’s commitment to games leveraging blockchain technology has grown exponentially since the mainnet launch of Sui, demonstrated through support for a wide variety of games, from independent AAA games such as XOCIETY to Mysten Labs’ development of the forthcoming SuiPlay0X1, the first hardware device capable of playing Web2 and Web3-powered games, in partnership with Playtron OS.
