Studio369, developer of mech shooter MetalCore, announced its transition to the Solana blockchain to improve gameplay performance and accessibility.
The migration is expected to speed up in-game transactions and reduce costs, providing a streamlined experience for both new and existing players.
It also integrates with Solana Labs’ GameShift platform to further support in-game purchases and help provide a smoother entry point for users less familiar with blockchain technology.

Solana was chosen because of its high-throughput network that supports fast blockchain transactions.
This capacity allows MetalCore players to experience faster in-game actions and interactions that require blockchain processing. Additionally, Solana’s infrastructure is designed to provide lower costs per transaction, making gameplay more cost-effective.
“We are excited to bring MetalCore to Solana and leverage its infrastructure to enhance the on-chain user experience and leverage Solana’s unique strengths,” said Matt Candler, CEO of Studio369. “Metalcore has won multiple awards for best web3 game, and we want to provide our players with the best infrastructure so they can enjoy the game in the most convenient and seamless way.”
Integration with Solana Labs’ GameShift platform enables a unified in-game store and simplified payment options, benefiting both web2 and web3 users by improving transaction efficiency and overall accessibility.
