METABORA GAMES Forms Strategic Web3 Game Partnership with Baligames
New Hybrid Title to Combine Casual Match-3 Puzzle Mechanics with RPG Progression Elements
Game to Feature BORA Token Payments and Gas Abstraction for Seamless User Transactions
SEOUL, South Korea, July 23, 2025 /CNW/ -- METABORA GAMES (CEO Choi Se-hoon), a leading blockchain game developer, announced today that it has signed a Web3 game co-development partnership with Baligames (CEO Kim Young-woo) to release a new title on LINE NEXT's Dapp Portal.
Baligames is a rising Korean game studio founded by core developers behind global hits like the Anipang series. With extensive experience in mobile game development and live operations, the studio became the first in Korea to secure strategic investment from Sky Mavis, the creators of Axie Infinity, a leading title in the global Web3 game space. Leveraging this partnership, Baligames launched Axie Champions and Puzzle Champions, two casual Web3 games based on the Axie IP.
Through this partnership, METABORA GAMES and Baligames will collaborate to launch a new Web3 title on LINE NEXT's Dapp Portal. Baligames will lead development and live operations for a hybrid game that combines casual match-3 puzzle mechanics with RPG-style progression. METABORA GAMES will support the project with tokenomics design optimized for LINE NEXT's Mini Dapp ecosystem, along with Web3-focused marketing.
The Dapp Portal is a platform within the Kaia ecosystem that allows users to access a variety of Mini Dapps—such as games and social apps—directly within LINE Messenger, without the need for separate installations.
The upcoming game will support in-app purchases using BORA tokens, enabling players to buy in-game items. Additionally, the game will be the first to implement a Gas Abstraction feature, allowing users to cover gas fees using BORA even if they do not hold Kaia tokens.
This announcement follows METABORA's recently signed Web3 distribution partnership with LINE NEXT on July 14, under which METABORA joined as a core partner for Web3 game publishing on the LINE NEXT's Dapp Portal.
A METABORA representative commented, "Starting with our co-development partnership with Baligames, we plan to bring a lineup of competitive Web3 titles to the Dapp Portal. Through this effort, we aim to expand our game portfolio and further strengthen the BORA tokenomics."

Temu Partners with Leading Korean Testing Institute to Bolster Product Quality and Consumer Trust
SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 8, 2025 /CNW/ -- Temu, the global e-commerce platform, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the FITI Testing & Research Institute as part of its ongoing efforts to strengthen product quality oversight. Under the agreement, FITI will provide third-party testing services for textile and apparel products offered on Temu. This collaboration adds an additional layer of independent verification to Temu's existing quality assurance framework, helping ensure compliance with technical standards and supporting sellers in improving product consistency and reliability. FITI joins a growing network of global testing and certification partners supporting Temu in verifying that products sold on the platform meet relevant safety and regulatory standards. The collaboration also reflects Temu's commitment to deepening trust among Korean consumers. "Through this collaboration with Temu, FITI's expertise in testing and certification is expected to play a key role in ensuring consumer safety and product reliability throughout the global distribution process," said Yoon Joo-kyung, President of FITI Testing & Research Institute. "We will continue to provide independent and fair testing and certification services that meet international standards, contributing to a safer consumer environment for customers in Korea and beyond." Founded in 1965, FITI is Korea's first internationally accredited testing agency under KOLAS, the national accreditation body recognized by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy. The institute has long provided testing, inspection, and certification services across a wide range of sectors including textiles, consumer goods, and the environment—in Korea as well as in markets such as China and Vietnam. This partnership between Temu and FITI has been ongoing since last year, and is now been officially announced following the establishment of practical, multi-faceted cooperation measures. It reflects Temu's ongoing efforts to build a robust quality management system through strategic partnerships with leading Korean testing and certification institutions. "Our collaboration with FITI represents another step forward in reinforcing our quality control system and creating a trustworthy e-commerce environment," said a Temu spokesperson. "We will continue expanding partnerships with credible institutions to ensure that Korean consumers—and consumers around the world—can shop with confidence at affordable prices." Since launching in Korea in July 2023, Temu has provided access to a broad selection of competitively priced merchandise across more than 600 categories, offered by independent third-party sellers through its platform. In May 2024, Temu also voluntarily entered into a Product Safety Agreement with the Korea Fair Trade Commission, demonstrating its strong commitment to consumer protection. The company's growing presence in Korea reflects its mission to widen consumer access to quality products at affordable prices through a trusted online marketplace. Earlier this year, Temu fully opened its platform to local sellers in Korea, offering them a low-cost, scalable channel to reach millions of new customers. Temu is a global e-commerce platform connecting consumers with millions of manufacturers, brands, and business partners. Operating in more than 90 markets worldwide, Temu is committed to providing affordable, high-quality products that enable customers to live better lives.

METABORA GAMES Integrates BORA Ecosystem with Kaia CL Protocol
- Enhancing BORA tokenomics by establishing a joint liquidity pool and applying a burn mechanism - Adopting a gas abstraction model, enabling BORA tokens to be used as a substitute for Kaia transaction fees SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 6, 2025 /CNW/ -- METABORA GAMES (CEO Choi Se-hoon), a leading blockchain game developer, announced today that it has completed the integration of the 'Consensus Liquidity (CL) Protocol' of the blockchain platform Kaia into the BORA ecosystem. The 'CL' is an innovative infrastructure protocol based on the Kaia chain that enables simultaneous participation in validator staking and liquidity provision. By integrating Kaia's CL technology into the BORA ecosystem, METABORA GAMES will begin full-scale connectivity with external chains through the establishment of a joint liquidity pool, the introduction of a 'gas abstraction' model (which enables transaction fees to be paid on behalf of users), and the implementation of a fee-burning mechanism. With the completion of the CL integration, METABORA GAMES and the Kaia Foundation established a joint liquidity provision plan and provided approximately $2 million in liquidity as of August 5. The partners plan to further boost the BORA ecosystem and enhance the token's value through additional phased liquidity injections. Additionally, a burn mechanism will be applied to the fee revenue generated from the joint liquidity pool. A certain portion of BORA-denominated profits will be burned, reinforcing the ecosystem's deflationary tokenomics. The burn rate and frequency will be adjusted flexibly in accordance with market conditions and revenue scale. The integration will also introduce a 'gas abstraction' feature, allowing users to pay transaction fees on the Kaia mainnet using BORA tokens. This enables users to cover transaction fees with BORA tokens even if they do not hold any Kaia tokens. A METABORA GAMES representative stated, "The integration of the CL Protocol marks the first step for the BORA chain in achieving functional flexibility and scalability by structurally connecting with external public infrastructure. This signifies a transition and expansion from an independent BORA mainnet model to an interactive structure that engages with external ecosystems." They added, "Starting with the launch of mini Dapps based on LINE Messenger and onboarding on Kaia, we will further strengthen BORA's tokenomics by expanding external utility and operating an organic burn mechanism that functions seamlessly across multiple chains."
