BLOCKLORDS Chooses Leading Layer 2 Scaling Solution Immutable X To Power Its Medieval Metaverse on Ethereum

SYDNEY, May 19, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- BLOCKLORDS, an upcoming asset powered economy game built by gamers for gamers, today announced they have chosen Immutable X, the leading Layer 2 scaling solution for NFTs on Ethereum, to hyper-scale its medieval metaverse with fully gas-free and carbon-neutral NFTs. The partnership will ensure BLOCKLORDS' player community will have a robust NFT experience while immersing themselves in a fun and dynamic game that will stand the test of time.

BLOCKLORDS is led by its creator, David Johansson, who has previously built successful titles in the gaming world, such as Liberators and Seascape Network. It's operated by a growing team of artists, designers, and developers from highly reputable gaming studios like EA, Ubisoft, Paradox, and Creative Assembly.

The multiplayer game is built for ambitious strategy players looking to have a more exciting and innovative experience in a shared universe, allowing players to earn and make a living whilst having fun. BLOCKLORDS will offer in-game heroes as economic assets, with the earnings being used for rental, lending, and trading.

The partnership with Immutable X is crucial in BLOCKLORDS' long term growth plan to scale mainstream adoption. Immutable X was built by Immutable, who founded the successful, and Ethereum's first, trading card game Gods Unchained, with StarkWare's bleeding-edge zk-rollup technology. The Layer 2 protocol will ensure that all NFT activities within BLOCKLORDS' medieval metaverse are entirely gas-free and carbon neutral. Plus, BLOCKLORDS will be able to enjoy an astounding transaction speed of 9,000 TPS without compromising its players' digital assets with Ethereum's battle-tested security.

""There's a lot of noise, buzzwords, and companies taking advantage of web3. For us, gamers are our priority, which is why it's our mission to set an example, educating newcomers and inspiring others to adopt new technology with community in mind. It's this exact reason that we've chosen to partner with IMX, being mindful of a sustainable future where gamers always come first." Said BLOCKLORDS CEO David Johansson.

"We're excited about our new partnership with BLOCKLORDS to power the NFT experience within their innovative and new medieval metaverse," said Robbie Ferguson, Co-Founder and President of Immutable. "BLOCKLORDS is the perfect use case for Immutable's fast, gas-free and carbon-neutral Immutable X protocol, and we look forward to supporting them on their journey to mainstream adoption."
