The Machines Arena, a top-down shooter on the Ethereum gaming network Ronin, is set to launch on Steam on January 14 and will also come to PlayStation 5 in 2025. However, the game will not include any crypto features on these platforms due to their restrictive policies. While the PC and direct download versions allow players to earn TMA tokens and utilize NFTs, these elements will not be present in the Steam version. Directive Games’ Design Manager David Gracia emphasized the importance of expanding the player base while adhering to platform guidelines. Discussions are ongoing with Sony regarding the PlayStation 5 version to explore possible blockchain elements, though specific details remain unclear. Despite these variations, players across different platforms will be able to join the same game lobbies, aiming for a unified gaming experience without blockchain elements for some users.
