Getting Started and migrating to Elysium with Metamask

What is Metamask?

Metamask is a popular Ethereum-based wallet that acts as a bridge between users and blockchain networks. It allows you to securely store your digital assets, interact with decentralized applications, and manage your transactions, all within a user-friendly interface.

Setting Up Metamask

Option 1: You already have a Metamask wallet

Our recommendation is to create a new account in your existing Metamask. This new account (with a new wallet address) will be used for the Elysium Network only.

The steps are fairly straight forward:

Step 1. Open your Metamask using the extension and click on the wallet avatar on the top-right

To get started, install the Metamask extension in your preferred web browser. Once installed, you have two options: You can create a new wallet or add an existing wallet to Metamask by following the simple setup process. Ensure you securely backup your wallet’s seed phrase to prevent any loss of funds. Our recommendation is to spend the time to watch the video below and follow the steps carefully.

Final Steps for Migrating to Elysium with Metamask

We have just covered the first step of our transition to Elysium.

The next major step is linking your Metamask wallet to your Vulcan Forged account (My Forge) so that all your current NFTs can be seamlessly transitioned. This process will take place in the last week of June, and you will receive an automatic prompt to do so when you log into My Forge. Once completed, you will be able to view your NFTs as usual in My Forge and access VulcanVerse and other games that require NFTs to play.

Please note that adding your Metamask wallet will be essential after the transition to Elysium in order to play VulcanVerse or view your NFTs in Berserk.

We are thrilled about this significant transition of migrating to Elysium with Metamask, and our team is working diligently behind the scenes to ensure a smooth process. While we anticipate a few minor issues along the way, we kindly ask for your patience.

Expected Milestones

  • Current user and player sets his/her Metamask wallet | June 21st – July 3rd
  • My Forge transitions to Elysium: User add their Metamask wallet on My Forge | Tentative July 3rd
