The Beacon game uses the Ethereum Layer-2 network called Arbitrum One. Arbitrum One allows us to provide users a quicker and cheaper experience when interfacing with the blockchain.

For users to be able to use Arbitrum One with their MetaMask, they will first need to add the Arbitrum One network details into their MetaMask network settings.

Steps

  1. In MetaMask, click the profile icon in the upper-right to expand the options, and then click “Settings”.
