biggest news
X Empire Airdrop: Telegram's tap-to-earn game X Empire has completed its latest mining phase, shutting down the game ahead of the launch of X tokens on The Open Network (TON) this Thursday. Formerly known as Musk Empire, the game's brief “chill phase” will last just over two weeks, giving players one last chance to earn more tokens ahead of the October 24th airdrop. I was able to get it.
This isn't the first time X Empire has gone through this process. The game will complete its initial multi-month mining phase on September 30th, with the launch of X tokens expected to follow soon after. However, it was revived two days later and resumed a “chill phase” that provided players with an additional 5% of the total token supply.
However, not everyone is excited about the airdrop's rollout. After the game revealed airdrop allocations to players on Friday, many complained that they were completely left out. And the game's creator revealed that out of a total of over 50 million players, only 6 million will be eligible.
Some players took to Twitter to complain to Elon Musk…but despite his original name and a cartoonish avatar with his likeness, he didn't actually know what the game was about. There is no relationship.
Hamster Combat Season 2: We knew the second season of Telegram's hit crypto game Hamster Kombat was coming later this month, but on Thursday the developer revealed its theme. And that's a major overhaul.
Instead of a hamster CEO running your own crypto exchange, you decide to start and expand your own development studio, create games, strengthen your team, and launch a platform for such games. It will be. A quick teaser shows development work that could take several days to complete, but also shows the return of tap gameplay, familiar daily combos, and more.
Moonray on PS5: The makers of Ethereum-based combat arena game Moonray have announced that they will release the free-to-play title on PlayStation 5 next year. However, citing Sony policy, the game will launch on consoles without Web3 functionality.
On PC, the game already has a Play-to-Airdrop campaign, and the upcoming mobile autobattler game has similar plans for its release next year. But this isn't the case with the PS5 version of the arena combat game, at least to begin with. This is due to Sony's “rules and conditions” restricting the game.
Still, big question marks remain about the future of Off the Grid. Off the Grid is currently in early access on PS5, and there are no directly integrated crypto features available to players. Off the Grid developer Gunzilla Games has yet to reveal its cryptocurrency integration plans for consoles. decryptionThis is your inquiry.
Off the grid goes viral: Avalanche battle royale shooter Off the Grid was released two weeks ago to much buzz and excitement. That hype continued into last week, with tons of clips going viral and it's easy to see why the game has quickly become the most popular free-to-play title on the Epic Games Store.
From Fortnite's legendary ninja showing off his 'Slam Fist' Cyberlimb powers to popular streamer TimTheTatman snipe the last man standing in the air, viewers are loving the game That was clear. Not only that, but it seems that some traditional gamers are also starting to come up with the idea of NFTs. Will this open the door for crypto gaming to enter the mainstream?
