VIVID GAMES BECOMES SBARTER’S FIRST STUDIO PARTNER FOR LAUNCH

Sbarter, the protocol that enables players and creators to launch their own competitive events within the games they already play, today announced a strategic partnership with Vivid Games, the Polish developer and publisher behind the acclaimed Real Boxing franchise. Vivid Games will be the first studio to join Sbarter, with Real Boxing 3 integrating the protocol for the Closed Alpha launch in January 2026.

Sbarter connects to existing games through a lightweight API, allowing players and creators to create and join challenges without altering the gameplay or the game’s economy. Once the connection goes live, Real Boxing 3 players will be able to launch their own one-on-one duels, creator-led events, or community tournaments, all while playing the game exactly as they normally do. Match outcomes will be verified directly by Vivid Games’ servers, guaranteeing fairness, transparency, and integrity. This partnership introduces what Sbarter calls User-Generated Events – a natural extension of User-Generated Content, shifting the community’s creativity from making content to shaping competitive moments within the game’s existing structure.

For Vivid Games, the connection with Sbarter offers a new way to help maintain player interest and engagement in Real Boxing 3 over time. Sbarter provides a revenue model aligned directly with real community activity, allowing the studio to earn from challenges it confirms, without developing additional content. This approach enhances retention by adding social and competitive dynamics that naturally encourage players and creators to return more often. Vivid Games will also take an early governance role in shaping the long-term evolution of the protocol and how User-Generated Events expand across the industry.

“Players have always added friendly stakes to competition, whether it’s a game of pool or a match online,” said Alessandro Fried, Chairman of Sbarter. “Sbarter brings that spirit into video games in a fair, transparent, and player-controlled way. Having Vivid Games as our first partner shows how strongly this resonates with studios who want to give their communities moments that truly matter.”

Piotr Gamracy, CEO of Vivid Games, added: “Our players love proving themselves. Sbarter offers a simple and fair way to make each match more exciting, without changing the fundamentals of the game. It’s a natural extension of what Real Boxing has always stood for: skill, rivalry and community.”

Dominique Cor, Chief Marketing Officer at Sbarter, said: “Sbarter brings more energy and more reasons for players to return. Optional stakes make competitive moments more intense and more memorable.”

The integration of Sbarter into Real Boxing 3 will begin rolling out in January 2026 across regions where both products are live and compliant.
