Atari, a legendary name in the gaming industry, has announced a partnership with Coinbase to bring its classic games, Asteroids and Breakout, to the blockchain. This collaboration will be part of Onchain Summer and the new Onchain Arcade, allowing players to compete for leaderboard positions and earn rewards. Proceeds from minting these games will go directly to the creators involved in their development.

Atari and Coinbase emphasized the need for an update to today’s internet, criticizing the current corporate internet for imposing arbitrary rules, censorship, digital theft, middlemen, and transaction fees.

This initiative will bring beloved Atari classics to the blockchain, offering a new way for players to engage with these games.
