At EthCC in Cannes, Web3 gaming platform Somnia unveiled a strategic partnership with Google Cloud to bring AI agents and advanced security to blockchain-based games.
This collaboration combines Google Cloud’s AI and security tools with Somnia’s high-performance Layer 1 chain, designed to support massive-scale gaming. With sub-second finality and over 1 million TPS, Somnia’s testnet has already processed 1 billion transactions and attracted more than 60 game projects.
Key aspects of the partnership include:
- Google Cloud as a validator on the Somnia network
- Access to tools like BigQuery, AI agents, and live blockchain data
- Mandiant threat intelligence to counter Web3-specific risks
- AI-powered NPCs and in-game economies using Google’s A2A and ADK
“Partnering with Google Cloud brings us closer to a truly intelligent and decentralized internet,” said Paul Thomas, Somnia’s founder.
The rollout begins this summer, inviting developers to build the next generation of on-chain AI gaming.
