Pioneering decentralized and dynamic NFTs incorporated into gaming 

[Paris, France] Aleph.im, a cross-blockchain decentralized storage and computing network, has been selected as the technology partner, offering decentralized storage for dynamic NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) on Ubisoft’s new blockchain-powered platformUbisoft Quartz. Players will be able to acquire dynamic NFTs called Digits on Quartz that will be used in Ubisoft’s AAA game, Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Breakpoint. For the first time in a mainstream video game, 

players will be able to claim playable NFTs that represent in-game assets such as weapons, equipment, and more, that combine the fun of playing with AAA quality Ubisoft in-game items and the thrill of owning a unique, collectible piece of Ubisoft’s game worlds. These Digits are meant to be played with in-game but they also enable players to put them on sale when they choose to on Rarible and Objkt for other eligible players to buy. 

The global video gaming industry has continued to explode, with the industry expected to grow by 50% up to$268.8 billionin 2025. As the industry continues to boom, video game developers have become increasingly interested in blockchain gaming as a way to open up more possibilities for their players to engage with their favorite games. Blockchain gaming with integrated NFTs are opening doors to new opportunities for players and developers alike, unlocking new potential to own, and trade their own assets. 

As a technology partner, aleph.im will offer a decentralized storage solution for Ubisoft Quartz. The NFT metadata will be stored on aleph.im’s fully decentralized storage system of over 70 nodes, while all NFT ownership will be tracked on the Tezos blockchain. Through its microVMs, aleph.im will be able to securely store and generate the metadata of these NFTs, such as current and previous owners’ names, item description, and attached video of the object at play. This will also allow anyone to check the history of the item metadata in a trustful manner which will be incredibly useful for Rarible and Objkt. 

“The incorporation of NFTs into a mainstream game is a revolutionary moment for NFTs.Dynamic NFTs have never been done before and this marks the first time NFTs will evolve overtime as various players use them in-game. Aleph.im is proud to be at the forefront of this newera where blockchain technology and decentralized solutions for NFTs play a pivotal role intraditional gaming,” said Jonathan Schemoul, aleph.im Founder and CEO. 

By eliminating reliance on centralized entities, NFT-backed digital assets become more efficient, secure, and private, making them less prone to hacks and other cyber-attacks. While traditional NFTs have been mostly static and won’t change attributes based on each ownership transfer, aleph.im’s evolutionary technology has changed the game by enabling the creation of Dynamic NFTs with metadata that evolve as they transfer from player to player. Aleph.im’s technology will allow players to see information on which players have previously owned the items they have retrieved, including player names and achievements.

“With Ubisoft Quartz, we’re taking the first step to leverage blockchain’s decentralized approachto open new opportunities for our players by making them true stakeholders of our games.”explains Didier Genevois, Blockchain Technical Director at Ubisoft. “To fulfill thetechnology’s promise, we needed players to actually own their Digit and be able to leave theirmark in their favorite game. Aleph.im’s role was key in building this experiment by allowing us todecentralize the storage of the Digits’ video asset and metadata.” 

This large-scale experiment is the next step in Ubisoft’s four-year exploration of blockchaintechnology through in-house research and development and close collaboration with renownedspecialists within the startup ecosystem. Earlier this year, Ubisoft establisheda core channel node on the aleph.im decentralized computer network, as the decentralized storage of the valuable metadata appears to Ubisoft as a determining factor to enable blockchain to fulfill its promise.
