Ethereum Game The Machines Arena to Expand Without Blockchain on Steam and PS5

Ethereum-based game The Machines Arena is launching on Steam (January 14) and PlayStation 5 in 2025, but due to platform restrictions, it will not have blockchain elements. Players can earn TMA tokens on PC via the Epic Games Store and Android and trade NFT skins on Ronin, features absent in the Steam version. Directive Games’ David Gracia emphasized the goal of expanding the player base while complying with platform policies. Discussions with Sony continue regarding potential blockchain features for the PS5 version, but their inclusion remains uncertain amidst restrictive crypto policies.
