MetalCore's open beta is coming in a few months.

Studio369 readies beta of Web3 multiplayer mech combat game MetalCore

The mechs are coming to the blockchain.

Studio369 is preparing to launch MetalCore, an open world player-versus-player mech combat game that combines the engagement of high-quality traditional gaming with true asset ownership via Web3.

In the works for about three years, the game is expected to hit an open beta test within a few months and a closed beta much sooner. It’s coming from a stellar team of creatives from the likes of LucasFilm, Disney, Activision, and others. Meanwhile, it’s starting a closed beta today dubbed “Call to Arms,” an invite-only playtest that provides early fans a first-hand look at the updated game build.
