MetaCene has launched a new gaming experience, MetaCene: Gold Rush, on the Ethereum Layer 2 platform Mantle. This release builds on the strategic partnership established in March 2024 between MetaCene, a Singapore-based blockchain MMORPG developer, and Mantle.
Their previous collaboration involved the xMetaCene mini-game, which saw significant engagement. The Gold Rush experience offers players various in-game rewards and integrates Mantle’s technology. This partnership aligns with MetaCene’s plans to advance blockchain gaming through both current and future projects.

Set in a dystopian future, MetaCene is an advanced MMORPG that is a blockchain hub for a vast global player base. Recently launched in alpha phase III, the game leads in player-generated content, governance, and creativity, offering complex PVE and PVP Play-to-Earn experiences with a prize pool amassing $1 million.
MetaCene is dedicated to revolutionizing gaming in a multi-chain environment. At the core of its technical advancement is the adoption of Unreal Engine 5, which facilitates compatibility with various platforms like PC, iOS, Android, and cloud-based services.
In a significant move within the blockchain gaming sector, MetaCene has launched a new gaming experience titled MetaCene: Gold Rush on the Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain Mantle. This development follows a strategic partnership between Mantle and MetaCene, announced subsequent to their initial investment in March 2024.
Previously collaborating on the browser-based xMetaCene play-to-earn mini-game, which garnered participation from over 450,000 wallets, the two entities have expanded their partnership with the introduction of MetaCene: Gold Rush. This PC and mobile-based game offers players non-tradable in-game items along with a substantial reward pool of $3 million worth of upcoming MUD and MAK tokens.
Adventure is Calling
MetaCene's CEO, Alan Tan, emphasized the necessity for a high-performance network to facilitate complex interactions between players and assets in gaming environments. He expressed enthusiasm about leveraging Mantle's advanced modular Layer 2 technology and robust ecosystem to enhance the blockchain gaming experience.
“As with any serious gaming venture, computing-intensive interactions between players and assets require a highly performant network to support seamless gameplay.”
While MetaCene: Gold Rush currently operates on Mantle, the long-term vision includes launching MetaCene's primary game, MetaCene: The Genesis of Fire, on the Ranger Protocol as part of a broader multi-chain strategy.
