Pebble City, Mobile Web3 Social Casino Game, Launches on Sui

Pebble City, the highly anticipated social casino game, has officially launched on Sui. Developed by NHN Corporation’s Web3 division, Pebble City redefines the social gaming experience by combining high-quality gameplay with community-driven interactions, which will all be powered by Sui’s high-performance technology. Pebble City offers a frictionless gaming experience that merges the best of traditional gaming on mobile with the benefits of web3 – without requiring users to have prior blockchain knowledge. This launch follows the successful beta launch which was previously announced in March 2024.

During the game, players can utilize their Casino Membership NFTs to explore an immersive digital environment where they can walk through various virtual casinos, engage in exclusive community games, and earn premium in-game rewards. Players can use their chips to play high-quality slots and compete in other types of casino games, with every game offering a chance to win Stars, which can either be used in the exclusive Star Casino or converted into STBL tokens. Pebble City integrates blockchain in an intuitive way, introducing existing Web3 concepts to traditional gamers while maintaining an enjoyable user experience made possible by Sui.

This launch marks a significant step for both Sui and NHN, showcasing how Sui’s infrastructure can support large-scale gaming ecosystems. With sub-second finality and high transaction throughput, Sui ensures that Pebble City operates just as smoothly as a Web2 mobile game, offering a high-speed, user-friendly experience. The game also leverages zkLogin and Sui Kiosk, simplifying how players can interact with blockchain-enabled features, and removing the unfamiliar hurdles of Web3 onboarding.

“Pebble City is a great example of the ways Sui can enhance gaming without disrupting the player experience, delivering a real-world application of blockchain technology,” said Adeniyi Abiodun, CPO and Co-Founder of Mysten Labs, the original contributor to Sui. “By utilizing Sui primitives like zkLogin and Kiosk, the game offers a seamless, engaging, and scalable experience that feels just like traditional gaming but with all the benefits of blockchain ownership, which is what Sui is all about.”

As a leading publicly traded company with over 37 million registered players, NHN brings extensive expertise in gaming and is well-positioned to help drive forward Sui’s broader mission of mass adoption. With Pebble City now live on Sui, this partnership sets the stage for more games that leverage Sui as the Web3 gaming vertical continues to grow.

“We’re thrilled to bring Pebble City to life on Sui, combining our experience with game development with Sui's cutting-edge technology,” said Ujin Chung, CEO of NHN Corporation. “Our goal has always been to create games that provide meaningful engagement and value to players, and through today’s launch, we’re able to deliver a next-level gaming experience that is built to impress. As blockchain adoption continues to grow, we see this as a pivotal moment to redefine how companies like ours engage with decentralized ecosystems.”
