Sanko GameCorp to Shut Down Mainnet, Shift Focus to SankoQuest

In Brief:

• Sanko GameCorp will shut down its Sanko Mainnet by February 2026 to refocus efforts on developing SankoQuest, its primary game.
• Users must migrate their digital assets before February 27, 2026, to ensure they can be recovered through the Arbitrum One network.
• SankoQuest, a browser-based RPG, will benefit from the full attention of the development team, aiming to improve gameplay and user engagement.

Mainnet Shutdown
Sanko GameCorp has announced the planned closure of its Sanko Mainnet, aiming to redirect its focus toward the enhancement of SankoQuest, their flagship onchain RPG. The wind-down process will culminate with the cessation of mainnet operations at the end of February 2026. Users on the platform have been directed to transfer their digital assets off the Sanko L3 network promptly. The final deadline to complete all asset migration is set for 23:00 UTC on February 27, 2026, past which point the network will not support new transactions, rendering any untransferred assets potentially irrecoverable.

Migration Steps and Support Tools
To accommodate the transition, Sanko GameCorp outlined necessary steps for asset transfer, including the withdrawal or unbonding of DMT from the SankoPets Farm and Buns from the SankoPets FoxxBunn Factory. Unbonding these assets before the deadline will avail their recovery on the Arbitrum One network. SankoTV users have also been urged to export their wallets at the earliest. To aid users in migrating NFTs and tokens from Sudoswap liquidity pools, the team will release a dedicated web tool.

Focus on SankoQuest
The decommissioning of the Layer 3 infrastructure marks a strategic pivot towards prioritizing SankoQuest. Sanko GameCorp has expressed its gratitude for the support from technical partners such as Caldera and Arbitrum throughout their Layer 3 project. The future development of SankoQuest is set to benefit significantly from this consolidated effort. The game itself offers a rich tapestry of environments and social interaction capabilities, set in a vibrant 3D world with a unique “Casual Degen” aesthetic.

Gameplay and Ecosystem Evolution
SankoQuest’s gameplay involves questing, combat, and social interaction across various elaborate settings. Players can collect unique items and customize their avatars with different equipment to enhance their capabilities and unlock new abilities. With the asset migration to the Arbitrum One network, the game’s items will tap into enhanced security and liquidity, promising a stable and engaging environment for users. The Sanko team committed to providing continued support through the migration phase to ensure a seamless user experience.
