Xertra is excited to announce the next phase of the Xertra ecosystem.

Beginning Wednesday 11th March, Xertra will roll out three major product releases across digital ownership, Web3 gaming and scalable rollup infrastructure. Xertraverse launches first, followed by Xertra Play and then Xertra Deploy.

These releases represent a co-ordinated expansion of the Xertra tech-stack. Each layer builds upon the previous one, forming a cohesive ecosystem spanning digital ownership, gaming infrastructure, and scalable blockchain deployment.

It all starts March 11th.

Xertraverse

Native NFT Infrastructure on Xertra - Launching Wednesday 11th March

Xertraverse is Xertra’s native NFT marketplace, built directly on the Xertra network. It has been architected as a foundational ecosystem component rather than an external integration. The marketplace operates with low transaction costs, efficient indexing, and seamless wallet interaction across the Xertra stack.

At launch, Xertraverse enables creators to mint individual NFTs and structured collections, with royalty configuration embedded directly into the minting process. Fixed-price listings will be live from day one, allowing assets to circulate immediately within the marketplace.

Solplex Launch Collection

To mark the launch of Xertraverse, Xertra will release a limited collection of Solplex artwork available exclusively on the marketplace.

All proceeds from the Solplex collection will be permanently burned. The objective is not short-term revenue, but long-term network value through supply reduction and aligned incentives.

In the weeks following launch, Xertraverse will expand with additional marketplace functionality, improved discovery mechanisms, and deeper integration with other Xertra products. It serves as the ownership layer for digital assets across the ecosystem.

Xertra Play

The Foundation of a Web3 Gaming Hub - Launching Wednesday 18th March

Xertra Play introduces the gaming infrastructure layer of the ecosystem. At launch, it will feature a selection of integrated games, marking the first phase in a broader strategy to develop Xertra Play into a Web3 gaming hub.

The vision is to create a unified environment where games, players, digital assets, and on-chain rewards operate within a structured and interconnected framework. Xertra Play is not simply a launcher. It is being built as an extensible infrastructure layer capable of supporting ecosystem-native titles and, over time, third-party integrations.

Players authenticate once and interact across supported games. Wallet integration is embedded directly into the platform, enabling on-chain reward distribution tied to gameplay participation. The experience is designed to reduce friction while preserving blockchain-native mechanics.

A core economic component of Xertra Play is its burn model. Each play requires the burning of 1 STRAX. This creates a direct link between user engagement and token supply reduction, ensuring that participation contributes to network utility and broader ecosystem economics.

The initial release introduces the core dashboard, integrated games, wallet connectivity, and leaderboard tracking functionality. Subsequent releases will progressively expand features, deepen integration with Xertraverse, and strengthen the foundation required to support a scalable Web3 gaming hub.

Xertra Deploy

Turnkey zkSync Era Rollups on Xertra Layer 1 - Launching Wednesday 25th March

Xertra Deploy is a turnkey application designed to simplify the deployment of a zkSync Era chain that rolls up directly to the Xertra Layer 1 blockchain.

Rather than requiring deep protocol expertise or complex manual setup, Xertra Deploy abstracts the process into a guided workflow. Through a structured deployment wizard, users are guided step by step through configuring, provisioning, and launching their own zkSync Era-based rollup environment secured by Xertra.

This architecture enables scalable Layer 2 environments that inherit security from Xertra Layer 1 while providing high-throughput, cost-efficient execution tailored to specific applications.

The initial release focuses on simplifying deployment through guided flows, clear environment configuration, and basic network visibility. The emphasis is on accessibility and clarity, allowing users to launch rollups without unnecessary operational complexity.

Structured Weekly Releases

Beginning Wednesday 11th March, Xertra will operate on a consistent weekly release schedule. Each Wednesday will introduce tangible updates across one or more ecosystem products.

This schedule provides steady execution and visible progress while enabling tighter integration between Xertraverse, Xertra Play, and Xertra Deploy over time.

A Unified Ecosystem

• Xertraverse establishes digital ownership.

• Xertra Play drives engagement and token utility.

• Xertra Deploy enables scalable rollup infrastructure secured by Xertra Layer 1.

Assets minted within Xertraverse can integrate directly into games operating through Xertra Play. Games and applications deployed via Xertra Deploy can leverage native NFT functionality and burn-driven token mechanics from inception. Player engagement contributes to token supply reduction, while deployed zkSync Era chains roll up to Xertra’s base layer for settlement and security.

The ecosystem operates as an interconnected system rather than isolated components.

Release Timeline

Wednesday 11th March – Xertraverse (including the Solplex Launch Collection)

Wednesday 18th March – Xertra Play

Wednesday 25th March – Xertra Deploy

Xertraverse, Xertra Play, and Xertra Deploy represent three interconnected layers of the ecosystem — ownership, engagement, and scalable infrastructure. Each release strengthens the foundation and expands what can be built on Xertra.

The weeks ahead will focus on refinement, iteration, and integration. As these products mature, further updates will follow in line with ecosystem priorities and community feedback.

March 11th is not a single launch moment. It is the start of continued execution across the Xertra stack.

Solplex Development Update

Built on XertraEVM, Xertra’s flagship strategy MMO now demonstrates the power of scalable EVM infrastructure operating inside a live game environment.

This update outlines what has changed, how the system functions, how to deposit and withdraw tokens, and how players can move assets through Xertra with the ability to withdraw to STRAX.

This marks a foundational step toward a fully connected on-chain economy.

What This Update Introduces

Token earning mechanics remain unchanged. Players continue to generate value through

• Selling resources on the marketplace.

• Auctioning artefacts.

• Strategic market positioning.

• Completing quest systems.

Core gameplay remains intact.

What has evolved is the underlying infrastructure.

Powered by XertraEVM, players can now deposit and withdraw tokens on-chain. The SolPlex economy is no longer confined to the game client. Tokens can move beyond the game environment and connect into the wider Xertra ecosystem, including withdrawals to STRAX.

What This Means for SolPlex

SolPlex remains a standalone strategy MMO.

Token integration enhances the economy — it does not replace gameplay.

This test phase enables Xertra to:

• Stress test live infrastructure powered by XertraEVM.

• Observe real economic behaviour.

• Balance long-term progression mechanics.

• Prepare for the production server environment.

Testing at this stage ensures long-term stability across both game systems and on-chain infrastructure. It allows SolPlex to remain player-focused while reinforcing Xertra’s role as the underlying settlement and infrastructure layer.

The In-Game Token Panel

A dedicated Token Integration panel is now available inside SolPlex.

From within the game you can:

• View your token balance.

• Review full transaction history.

• Deposit tokens.

• Withdraw tokens (once you have unlocked a second colony).

Each player is automatically assigned a unique deposit address.

Withdrawals become available after establishing a second colony, reinforcing in-game progression before enabling external token movement.

The Website Token Hub

A dedicated token page is now live on the SolPlex website.

This hub allows players to:

• Add the Xertra network to their wallet

• Add supported tokens including USDC and tSPX

• Access the Xertra Wormhole bridge

• Access the decentralised exchange.

The objective is to centralise the entire token flow in a single structured location.

Tutorials & Walkthroughs

Full step-by-step walkthroughs are available covering deposits, withdrawals, bridging, and swapping.

An official deep dive is available from the Game Director, alongside community walkthroughs from April Zoe, Sky Gaming, and Enissay.

These guides cover the entire process from wallet setup through to in-game deposits.

Step Into the Economy

This integration marks an important milestone for both SolPlex and the wider Xertra ecosystem.

With live infrastructure, on-chain token movement, and STRAX withdrawals now active, the foundation is in place for scalable growth and eventual production deployment.

Available Platforms

SolPlex is currently available on Windows and macOS through the official SolPlex launcher and on the Epic Games Store.

Mobile versions for iOS and Android are coming soon.
