We intend to work with WAYE extensively for in-game functionality to make MetalCore the best web3 game yet through even greater immersion and gameplay.”

Through innovative market-making solutions and community-driven initiatives, $MCG will serve as a foundational asset within the game’s evolving ecosystem, offering players, fans, and investors new ways to engage with the ecosystem.

“We see blockchain gaming as the ideal environment to showcase the transformative power of agentic AI,” said Dane Hamer, Co-CEO of WAYE.ai. “MetalCore’s vision aligns perfectly with ours, and we’re excited to build the future of gaming together.”

A Shared Vision for the Future. This partnership underscores a shared commitment to a player-first approach in gaming innovation.
