Ronin, known for powering Axie Infinity on its Ethereum scaling network, is set to revolutionize Web3 gaming with the introduction of sponsored transactions. This update, part of the Neo (v2.7.1) upgrade and Miko hardfork scheduled for February 26th, will significantly ease the way players interact with games on Ronin by enabling game developers to cover gas fees for their players.
With the upcoming update at block 32367400, Ronin aims to make Web3 gaming more user-friendly. The sponsored transactions feature will simplify the gaming experience, allowing participants to play without the hassle of gas fees. This move is expected to benefit both players and game developers by facilitating smoother transactions and encouraging more users to join the Ronin ecosystem.
The introduction of sponsored transactions, where one address can perform a transaction and another pays the fee, has been anticipated by the community. This feature, which has been a part of Axie Infinity, will now become available across various games on the Ronin network.
The Miko hardfork, in particular, is designed to encourage game studios to support their players by covering transaction costs. This could lead to innovative reward systems and improved player onboarding processes, further contributing to the growth of the Ronin network.
Ronin, developed by Sky Mavis, hosts several top-tier games beyond Axie Infinity, including Pixels, The Machines Arena, and Battle Bears Heroes.
