The Web3 gaming industry has entered a full-fledged growth trajectory with the introduction of stablecoins.

Blockchain Game Alliance(BGA) recently released the ‘2025 Blockchain Gaming Industry Report,’ stating that stablecoins have emerged as a key catalyst for the growth of Web3 gaming infrastructure.

The report emphasizes that the blockchain gaming industry is rapidly evolving, focusing on building a solid foundation, efficient infrastructure, and player-centric experiences. It explains that the industry has shifted from relying on overly promotional game projects to prioritizing sustainability.

According to a related survey, the launch of high-quality games drove 29.5% of Web3 gaming growth, followed by the development of proprietary revenue models at 27.5%. The adoption of stablecoins also contributed 27.3% to the growth of Web3 gaming, indicating that developers are focusing more on operational resilience and economic practicality rather than external evaluations.

Stablecoins are establishing themselves as practical payment methods for the global gaming economy by combining the stability of traditional currencies with the speed of blockchain. The report highlights that stablecoins provide players with fast, inexpensive, borderless payments and simplify the payment experience without exposure to volatility.

Regulatory clarity has also been identified as a factor promoting stablecoin adoption. The Trump administration passed the ‘Genius Acts(GENIUS Acts),’ which recognizes stablecoins and enhances transparency in issuance and usage regulations.

Sebastian Borje, co-chair of BGA and co-founder of The Sandbox, stated, “The Web3 industry is becoming more global and systematic, now focusing on creating tangible in-game value.”

Meanwhile, traditional gaming companies are also exploring Web3 integration. There are increasing rumors that GTA6 may adopt a P2E(Play-to-Earn) mechanism, and Sony plans to launch a dollar-pegged stablecoin in the United States in 2026 for gaming and digital subscription payments.
