Leading Ethereum wallet MetaMask now offers the ability to launch games directly from its MetaMask Portfolio interface via a new integration with crypto gaming store HyperPlay.

The team-up puts a dedicated games directory within MetaMask Portfolio, a decentralized app (dapp) that lets you manage the assets in your wallet and interact with other apps. That makes it easy for users to access and play MetaMask-compatible blockchain games that are available via HyperPlay.

This latest development builds on HyperPlay’s previous integrations with MetaMask, including a wallet overlay and support for non-Ethereum blockchains like Solana and Sui through MetaMask Snaps—a feature that lets users add community-developed functionality.

“We are thrilled to further our relationship with MetaMask in our collective mission to reshape the Web3 experience to fit the gaming world’s evolving economy,” said HyperPlay’s pseudonymous founder JacobC.eth, in a statement.

HyperPlay is a leading digital game store and launcher that’s focused on blockchain games. It features notable titles like Shrapnel, The Sandbox, Apeiron, and Square Enix’s Symbiogenesis. Square Enix, the maker of the popular Final Fantasy franchise, is an investor in HyperPlay alongside MetaMask parent company Consensys and others.
“Our continued collaboration with HyperPlay underscores the importance of streamlining wallet interactions for players and game developers alike,” said Kai Huang, Senior Product Manager at MetaMask, in a release. “With HyperPlay’s games directory available through the MetaMask Portfolio, users have a convenient platform for purchasing games and making in-game transactions using their existing cryptocy holdings.”
