AMGI’s My Pet Hooligan will launch on new gaming blockchain Studio Chain

Studio Chain, a new blockchain optimized for gaming is preparing for launch.

Created through a strategic collaboration between Arbitrum Foundation and the Karrat Foundation, Studio Chain will be underpinned by Karrat Fundation’s KARRAT coin. 

Although no release date has been announced, the inaugural flagship game frontlining Studio Chain will be My Pet Hooligan from AMGI Studios. With 500,000 downloads via Epic Games Store since its early access launch, and forthcoming expansions to Xbox and additional PC game launchers, AMGI will also contribute with its expertise in advanced AI integration, and the intersection of gaming, AI and other entertainment sectors. 

Studio Chain will also benefit from AMGI’s strategic partnerships with industry leaders including Nvidia, Palantir, Epic Games, and Eleven Labs. 

“This partnership exemplifies Arbitrum’s commitment to powering the next generation of web3 gaming and entertainment. Studio Chain and the My Pet Hooligan franchise bring with them a rich source of content and culture that we’re thrilled to add to the Arbitrum ecosystem,” commented partnerships manager at Offchain Labs Jack Fitzpatrick. 

In 2024, Arbitrum launched its $220 million gaming catalyst program to accelerate gaming on the network. 

“By leveraging Arbitrum’s powerful infrastructure, we’re able to create gaming experiences that were previously impossible,” said AMGI co-founder and COO Luke Paglia.

“My Pet Hooligan is just the beginning – this collaboration enables seamless in-game asset ownership, true player-driven interactive extensions, and enhanced interoperability that will transform how audiences engage with entertainment.”
