DOS Labs Launches Subnet Built for an Alliance of Gaming Studios

Validated Project

DOS Labs, a gaming studio with over 400k daily active players and a large network of Web3 game developers, has launched its Avalanche Subnet today.

On this Subnet, DOS Labs is forming a rich ecosystem for both players and game developers. The DOS Labs Subnet will support an exchange, asset management tools, and far more. For instance, DOS Subnet will provide game developers with SDKs (Unity, Unreal, and others) to quickly and affordably integrate Web3 features into games, lowering the barrier to Web3 game creation.

A team of gaming studios has already started building the next generation of Web3 games on this Subnet. DOS Labs has formed a Vietnam Game Developer Association with help from 11 studios and publishers. The alliance includes Heroes & Empires, Suga, Imba Games and many other notable game studios, all commiting to bringing games to DOS Subnet.

The alliance’s forthcoming games will all be represented by unique characters and backstories in DOS Labs’ upcoming Battle Royale game, MetaDOS.

MetaDOS is a free, innovative Battle Royale game aiming to launch on the Subnet this June. MetaDOS players will battle with up to 200 players per match. Additionally, MetaDOS brings the “Time-as-currency concept” into a Battle Royale game. Each player will have a certain amount of Time when joining the game. As they run out, they are eliminated. Players will have to fight and loot Time inside the game to become the last one standing and earn rewards.

Anh Le, co-founder of DOS Labs said this about why they chose Avalanche:

“Providing the best experience for onboarding Web2 players to Web3 gaming is our first mission. Currently, it takes over 20 steps for a player to be able to play an NFT game, and we aim to reduce them into 3 steps. We strongly believe in the long-term potential of the Avalanche network and DOS Subnet, where all game developers and players can benefit by utilizing our ecosystem. MetaDOS and Heroes & Empires will be the first movers on DOS Subnet”.

Ed Chang, head of gaming at Ava Labs, commented:

“This Subnet represents an opportunity for DOS Labs and the Vietnam Game Developer Association to build an entire gaming platform, with new revenue streams and partnership opportunities that don’t exist elsewhere.”

  • Sources: Saudi Arabia Plans to Expand Oil Pipeline to Red Sea, Increasing Capacity by 2 Million Barrels Daily to Bypass Strait of Hormuz

    On July 7, five informed sources revealed that Saudi Arabia is considering expanding the crude oil pipeline capacity to its western coast on the Red Sea, allowing Saudi Arabia and its neighbors to transport more oil without passing through the Strait of Hormuz. This east-west pipeline, built in the early 1980s, has gained strategic importance since the outbreak of the Iran war in February and the disruption of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. The pipeline can deliver up to 7 million barrels of crude oil per day to the Red Sea port. The CEO of Saudi Aramco stated in May that approximately 2 million barrels are supplied to west coast refineries, while about 5 million barrels are for export. Sources indicate that Saudi Arabia is in preliminary discussions with some neighboring countries regarding the pipeline expansion, aiming to add about 2 million barrels of pipeline capacity per day. It remains unclear whether Aramco's planned expansion involves upgrading existing infrastructure or constructing new pipelines. One source mentioned that the expansion plan also includes a smaller refined oil pipeline. Two sources indicated that the expansion scale could range from 1 million to 2 million barrels per day, with refined oil also being considered. Another source stated that the project would take several years and cost billions of dollars, requiring adjustments to Saudi crude pricing mechanisms.
