Metalcore Foundation, Studio 369 Reveal Blockchain-Powered Mech Battle Game
A game development team behind an organization called the Metalcore Foundation and video game developer Studio 369, announced a new multiplayer mechanized combat blockchain-powered video game title called Metalcore. The game is being built with Unreal Engine 4 and is a first-person combat game located in an open world.
“Players can engage in 100-person PvP mega-battles, smaller-scale cooperative PvE fights, and faction-based, open-world clashes,” the Metalcore team’s announcement detailed.
The game is being developed by a team with experience stemming from well known firms like Lucas Films, Midway, Activision, and Disney. Hugo Award-winning concept artist Stephan Martiniere is also working with the team. Martiniere’s art can be seen on projects like Gods of War, Magic the Gathering, Fallout, and Elder Scrolls.
The upcoming NFT-powered mechanized combat video game will be different from traditional free-to-play gaming worlds.
“Metalcore combines the engagement of traditional gaming with the growing blockchain economy,” the team’s announcement details. “Unlike traditional free-to-play games where players buy digital items with no inherent value, Metalcore builds a solid core economy and puts ownership into the player’s hands. Metalcore will have a private Alpha for selected players on PC in spring 2022, with its first NFTs available for presale in January 2022.”
