Sony’s Layer-2 blockchain Soneium has partnered with Japanese social media platform LINE to deliver four gaming functions on-chain. This collaboration comes two months after Soneium went live in January.
The mini-apps will be launched on the Soneium blockchain in the coming months, according to an official statement. The partnership opens new opportunities for wider Web3 reach in regions where LINE has a strong foothold.
The two companies noted that the collaboration would deliver an enhanced user experience with “smoother, scalable and accessible blockchain interactions.”
“LINE has built a strong presence and integrating successful mini-apps into the Soneium ecosystem is a next step towards making Soneium more accessible,” said Jun Watanabe, Chairman of Sony Block Solutions Labs. “We believe this collaboration will drive engagement and adoption in ways that were previously difficult to achieve.”

Fast Rise of Blockchain Mini-Games
Blockchain-based mini-games allow the combination of social interactions with entertainment with the prospect of crypto rewards and incentives for players.
Trending social media, including Facebook, Telegram, WeChat and TikTok, already provide access to mini-games, reaching millions of global users.
The recent partnership aligns with the evolution of digital experiences, given LINE’s reach in countries including Japan, Taiwan and Thailand.
Early this year, LINE launched dApps (decentralized apps) and a dApp portal, aiming to drive large-scale Web3 adoption in Asia.
