In a world where gaming is often confined to screens, MetaShot is blurring the lines, bringing the physical thrill of sports into digital arenas. Launched by Prince Thomas, Ranjit Kumar Behera, and Ajith Sunny, the startup is redefining immersive gameplay with its flagship product: the MetaShot Smart Bat, a cricket bat that translates real-world shots into in-game action.
With strong early traction and global expansion already underway, MetaShot partnered with Done Deal to fast-track their capital raise to match their ambitious roadmap.
Done Deal Edge
Done Deal enabled MetaShot to engage with a curated network of strategic investors -ranging from early-stage VCs to operators in the sports and gaming space. Multiple conversations were initiated with parties aligned on MetaShot’s vision of building an entirely new form of active gaming.
Among the participating investors, Sharrp Ventures came through Done Deal, aligning early with MetaShot’s vision of blending physical sports with digital gameplay. Done Deal facilitated strategic conversations, helping drive momentum toward closure as MetaShot finalized its ₹11 crore fundraise.
The Journey to Funding
The ₹11 crore round raised through a mix of equity and venture debt will help MetaShot expand its team, invest in R&D, and deepen its international footprint. With product availability across e-commerce, Q-commerce & offline retail, MetaShot is now gearing up for a U.S. launch.
This funding also supports the company’s long-term vision of evolving into a gaming platform where multiple physical sports can be virtually played starting with cricket, but not stopping there.
