MetaKing Studios partners with Polygon Labs on Blocklords game

MetaKing Studios announced today that it is partnering with Polygon Labs for the launch of Blocklords, its upcoming medieval strategy game, in the metaverse. The latter’s Ethereum Layer-2 scaling solutions will power the game’s player economy, where players can become rich rulers and warlords through tactical battles. MetaKing plans to launch the game sometime later this year.

Blocklords is a strategy game similar to Age of Empires or Crusader Kings. Players begin as characters of varying social backgrounds and build their fortunes via war with their neighbors or from collecting taxes. It also has a dynastic inheritance system where characters’ traits pass to their children. At the time of writing, it has 265,000 users registered to play.
