SKALE Partners with PGA TOUR, NODE Foundation, and Solis Interactive to Bring PGA TOUR RISE Onchain

SKALE is excited to partner with the PGA TOUR, NODE Foundation, and Solis Interactive to bring PGA TOUR RISE to mobile devices on SKALE.

PGA TOUR RISE is a free-to-play, strategy-first golf empire-building game. It breaks from traditional golf titles by focusing on building and managing your own golf operation, competing for resources, and growing premier courses over time. Players will also have the opportunity to earn real-world rewards as the game evolves.

The rollout begins with minigames, followed by the full game planned for 2026.

Strategy gameplay built for long-term progression

PGA TOUR RISE is designed around building, upgrading, and smart decision-making in a live global environment. Players will:

• Build premier golf courses and develop them over time
• Manage resources and compete in a real-time global environment
• Acquire better clubs, balls, and apparel to improve performance
• Buy, sell, and trade items through an integrated marketplace

True digital ownership powered by SKALE

In-game items will be minted as crypto digital assets on SKALE, giving players true ownership of their digital items. Because PGA TOUR RISE is built around constant trading and upgrading, the onchain experience needs to feel seamless. SKALE’s gas-free design supports high-frequency activity without the typical transaction fees that can disrupt gameplay.

As Jack O’Holleran, CEO and co-founder of SKALE Labs, shared:

“We’re incredibly proud to support the launch of this innovative golf game, developed in partnership with the PGA TOUR and Solis Interactive. This collaboration showcases how blockchain can elevate gaming and sports experience by combining the prestige of the PGA TOUR with true ownership through crypto digital assets. With the PGA Tour’s popularity, we view this as an opportunity to onboard the next 10 million users into Web3 gaming.”

PGA TOUR RISE will be the first major application deployed to SKALE on Base

PGA TOUR RISE will also be the first major application deployed to SKALE on Base, bringing SKALE’s gas-free performance into one of the fastest-growing onchain ecosystems.

Luca Curran, Head of AI and DePIN Business Development at Base, noted:

“It is incredibly exciting to see PGA Tour and SKALE partner with Solis to bring this game into the Base ecosystem. SKALE’s new Base deployment brings the power of SKALE into Base, and takes advantage of Base’s L2 technology stack. This game and its partnership with the PGA Tour is a phenomenal way for SKALE to introduce themselves to the Base community.”

Seamless onboarding for players

While PGA TOUR RISE is free-to-play, players will be able to deposit money to purchase clubs, apparel, and additional marketplace items using credit cards or crypto deposits, creating an accessible onboarding path for both crypto natives and golf enthusiasts.

Connecting gameplay to real-world benefits

PGA TOUR RISE is planning a unique connection between digital progression and real-world benefits. Through planned partnerships with leading golf equipment manufacturers, players will be able to earn tangible rewards such as discount codes and exclusive merchandise. These benefits are planned for a later phase and are not expected to be available immediately at launch.
