Moonlit Games' action RPG, Rogue Nation, is making a strategic move by joining Merit Circle's Avalanche subnet Beam. Rogue Nation offers a free-to-play mobile-centric cross-platform Rogue-lite Action RPG experience. Players can create and collect distinct characters, pets, weapons, and more to tackle challenging dungeons, raids, and compete against other players. At the booth, the team invited players to partake in their immersive world through playable demos - showcasing how their game emphasizes multiplayer and competitive play, while ensuring a delicate balance between risk and reward to constantly fine-tune player strategies.

This news coincides with the notable announcement made last week between Merit Circle DAO and Immutable. The Merit Circle DAO, one of the largest gaming-focused DAOs, revealed a strategic partnership with gaming platform Immutable to expand and enhance the DAO’s ecosystem, which comprises open-source blockchain network Beam and native digital asset marketplace Sphere, by harnessing Immutable's innovative platform and technology. "This strategic alliance with Merit Circle DAO and commitment from Beam aligns perfectly with our mission to bring digital ownership to every gamer in the world. Immutable’s robust ecosystem and cutting-edge technology combined with Merit Circle’s web3 gaming expertise allow us to enrich the gaming experience for millions of players worldwide," noted James Ferguson, Co-founder, and CEO of Immutable. 

The integration of Immutable's technology with Merit Circle's web3 gaming expertise is anticipated to enhance the gaming experience for a broader audience. Beam is an open-source, multi-chain platform, tailored to meet the specific needs of gaming studios. Its emphasis on simplifying game development complexities and prioritizing user experience makes it a noteworthy addition to the gaming landscape. Previously exclusive to Avalanche, Beam will now launch on Immutable zkEVM, a groundbreaking scaling solution powered by Polygon. Beam will also incorporate Immutable’s next-gen web3 solutions, such as Immutable Orderbook and Immutable Passport, to help studios and content creators increase their revenue and liquidity by sharing in-game digital asset orders across the world’s leading marketplaces whilst also providing web3 game developers with the robust tools needed to instantly onboard players through passwordless sign-on and automated wallet creation.

Moonlit Games' CEO, Patrick McGrath, shed light on news, stating: "We want to be where the builders are." Regarding the Merit Circle partnership, McGrath sees it as a significant step in redefining the gaming landscape, emphasizing the blend of creative game development with cutting-edge blockchain technology. As Rogue Nation transitions to the Avalanche subnet Beam, gamers can expect a convergence of creative game development and innovative blockchain technology, promising an enhanced gaming experience. The collaboration between Moonlit Games, Merit Circle DAO, and Immutable sets the stage for a new era in web3 gaming, where digital ownership and immersive experiences take precedence.
