The Machines Arena will release on Steam and PlayStation 5, but will face platform restrictions limiting its blockchain features. On Steam, the game will be crypto-free, unlike its more feature-rich Epic Games Store version. Discussions with Sony for the PlayStation continue, leaving possibilities open.

The goal is to recruit a broader audience and enhance cross-platform accessibility, removing restrictions on Steam and potentially allowing crypto elements on PlayStation. This strategy aims to unify players across platforms in a blockchain-inclusive or exclusive environment, according to player preference.
