As a result of the new partnership, the game DeFi Kingdoms will introduce PvP battles in a new Coliseum zone on the Metis blockchain. The collaboration will lead to the launch of 3v3 turn-based PvP battles in three stages, starting with private matches, followed by an automated tournament system, and the ability for players to organize their own competitions.
DeFi Kingdoms announced the partnership with Metis Labs at the ETH Denver event, which will result in the launch of the Coliseum with PvP battles on the Metis blockchain. Thanks to this partnership, the new DFK Coliseum zone will be exclusively launched on the Layer 2 network. The launch of the 3v3 battle arena will take place in three phases. In the first phase, players will be able to engage in private matches with customizable options such as bets and battle requirements. This will be followed by the second phase, which will introduce an automated tournament system, allowing developers to host various tournaments with "enticing" prize pools. Finally, the third phase will enable anyone to set up their own tournament, adding their own prizes and participation requirements.
The PvP gameplay will consist of the same 3v3 turn-based battles used for Mad Boar and the recently launched Bad Motherclucker Void Hunt.
Metis is a Layer 2 network based on Ethereum with optimistic rollup, launched in May 2021, which will soon enable native staking, becoming the first Ethereum L2 to decentralize its sequencer, according to the announcement. With Metis Labs aiming to expand beyond its DeFi ecosystem by exploring the gaming sector, both parties were able to find common ground, leading to this collaboration on the upcoming new PvP gameplay. Metis Labs will support the marketing, development, and launch of PvP battles, while DeFi Kingdoms will provide exclusivity to each new feature for one year post-release.
