Claynosaurz, a digital entertainment IP originally launched on the Solana blockchain, has announced its expansion to the Sui blockchain developed by Mysten Labs. The move was officially revealed during the Sui Basecamp event in Dubai. This development includes a new NFT collection, a user engagement-based reward system, and preparations for a forthcoming mobile game. The expansion is designed to extend the project’s reach and functionality without abandoning its roots on Solana.

What is Claynosaurz?

The Claynosaurz brand, which launched in 2022, is known for its collection of over 10,000 dinosaur-themed digital collectibles (NFTs). Originally conceived as digital assets, the characters have since evolved into a vibrant brand supported by a strong social media presence. According to Claynosaurz, their community spans several hundred thousand followers across multiple platforms. The company’s goal is to continue expanding its reach into other forms of entertainment, with the upcoming mobile game being one of its latest ventures.

Web3 Technology and Infrastructure

As part of this transition, the Claynosaurz team, led by CEO Andrew Pelekis, has confirmed the integration of Mysten Labs’ web3 backend technology, Walrus. This partnership aims to enhance the technical infrastructure supporting the project’s growing ecosystem. According to the team, the adoption of Sui’s capabilities is expected to support a more scalable and interactive experience for users engaging with the IP through NFTs and gaming.

Mobile Game Launch Planned for 2025

Claynosaurz previously announced its collaboration with game developer Gameloft on a mobile role-playing game based on the Claynosaurz universe. The game is scheduled for release in late 2025 on both iOS and Android platforms. In addition to mobile platforms, the game will also be available on Sui’s PC gaming handheld device, SuiPlay0X1. This multi-platform approach reflects the project’s broader strategy to increase accessibility and audience engagement across different devices.

Reward System to Launch Before Game Release

Ahead of the mobile game launch, Claynosaurz will introduce a new reward system on the Sui blockchain. This system will incentivize users based on their participation in NFT collecting, gameplay, and other community contributions. It will also feature staking mechanisms that allow users to earn rewards using their assets on both Solana and Sui. The reward system is designed to deepen user involvement while maintaining cross-chain support, reinforcing the project’s commitment to its original user base.

First Sui NFT Collection: Popkins Unleashed

Later in May, the team plans to mint its first NFT collection on Sui, titled Popkins Unleashed. This collection will include booster packs that may contain Popkins, a new character introduced to the Claynosaurz IP. Some packs will instead offer in-game cosmetics or discount items for the Claynosaurz ecosystem. The structure of the collection reflects the project’s continued focus on digital collectibles as a core component of its strategy.

Continued Support for Solana Blockchain

The Claynosaurz team has clarified that the expansion to Sui does not represent a migration. Existing NFTs minted on Solana will remain on their original blockchain and will be compatible with upcoming features developed for Sui. This approach ensures that long-term supporters of the project are not excluded from future updates and benefits.

Other Upcoming Announcements

Further details regarding the expansion and the Popkins Unleashed collection will be shared during a live Spaces session on X, scheduled for Tuesday, May 6. The session is expected to provide additional insight into the project’s direction and upcoming milestones. With the integration of Sui’s web3 technology, a new reward system, and plans for a cross-platform game release, Claynosaurz is positioning itself for continued growth within the blockchain-based digital entertainment space.
