It seems like 2024 has just begun, but we’re already three months in! This means only one thing. It’s time for a recap! Let’s look at some of the highlights from the Myria ecosystem from the first quarter of 2024.

Game Updates

Metarush

The beginning of 2024 was for Metarush. In February, the first game by Myria Studios finally got its website, providing players with a dedicated spot on the internet for all things Metarush.

By visiting the Metarush website, players can find more information about the game, its mechanics, and behind-the-scenes content. In addition to the new website, Metarush now also has its separate Medium page.

At the end of February, the Myria Head of Blockchain sat down with Myria’s Game Design Director to discuss the Metarush economy. You can find the full recording of the chat between Brendan and Ivan on Twitter.

Later in March, community members had the opportunity to participate in the first Metarush Alpha Playtest for 2024. Users who made the cut into the event received access to a special channel on Discord, giving them a chance to communicate with the team behind Metarush, get exclusive behind-the-scenes information about the game, and experience the title firsthand.

If you missed the Metarush Alpha Playtest, you can still make it in time for the next one. Stay tuned for further announcements in the weeks to come.

Ecosystem Updates

Myria Site Rework

Starting with January, the biggest event in the month was the complete rework of the official Myria website. The Myria page received a complete makeover with new sections, new functions, more information about Myria Nodes, and better performance than ever before.

Haven’s Compass is set to launch later in 2024.

Backpack Legends

Backpack Legends is a roguelike that turns your backpack into a weapon.

The title features different classes and a complex crafting system, allowing for hundreds of strategies that players can utilize.

Blockchain & Token Updates

Myria Send Function

In March, the Myria ecosystem received another upgrade. Moving forward, users can send ERC-20 token values on Myria’s L2 network at no gas cost, helping users to move their tokens from one Myria Wallet to another as quickly as possible. This means you can freely transfer ETH or MYRIA tokens between different Myria wallets. The feature can be accessed through the “Send” function, found in the Myria L2 wallet.

Currently, users can make up to three transfers per 24 hours.

Myria Wallet History

The Myria Layer 2 Wallet received an additional feature with the “History” tab. Extra details regarding all your transactions with the Myria Wallet, including the exact date they occurred, can now be easily accessed.

Node Updates

Myria Nodes received some behind-the-scenes improvements related to Node reward distributions that will minimize any failures related to the distribution of rewards.

Myria continues to grow and 2024 has only just begun but what does the future hold? Throughout the rest of the year, you can expect to see more community events, new partnerships, big reveals, and some long-anticipated releases. Big things are on the way.
