Ubisoft’s first blockchain game (Champion Tactics) is launched on 10/23

French gaming giant Ubisoft has recently been mired in "excessive political correctness", resulting in poor reviews for its new game (Assassin's Creed: Shadowbringers) before it was released, and it is also facing a massive strike by its employees.

Although there has been a lot of negative news recently, Ubisoft is still gradually promoting new works in other fields, such as the first blockchain game (Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, tentative translation) announced as early as last year, and recently targeting ( Captain Laser Hawk: The G.A.M.E.) game launched a plan to issue NFT.

According to currency circle foreign media (Decrypt), Ubisoft recently announced that (Champion Tactics) will be officially listed on the Home Verse, the Layer 2 platform of the Oasys blockchain, on October 23.

(Champions Tactics) is an RPG strategy game in which players can control characters called "Champions", which are digital collectibles with unique abilities, and engage in PvP battles with other players.

It officially provides 75,000 champion characters that can be minted for free, and includes a crafting system called "The Forge" where players can combine existing champions to create new champions with different characteristics.

(Champion Tactics) game executive producer Sylvain Loe-Mie said that this game is not "GameFi", but provides pure, immersive gameplay. Not only does it attract players, it also gives them the freedom to own their own game assets and jointly shape the future of gaming.

(Champion Tactics) Preview of game features and gameplay

1. Game settings and main gameplay

What kind of game is (Champion Tactics)?

According to the blockchain game foreign media (GAM3S.GG), in (Champion Tactics), the game not only provides strategic battles, but also a rich narrative experience. The "Chronicles" in the title hints at a storyline that may be shaped by player actions, potentially affecting the history and lore of the game world.

The core gameplay of (Champion Tactics) is turn-based combat. Players take turns choosing actions for their champion character, who need to focus on anticipating, coordinating and outsmarting their opponents. This design requires players to be alert, adapt quickly, and utilize every tool at their disposal to outwit their opponents.

The game’s casting phase, where players select a championship team based on their NFTs, adds a layer of unpredictability and excitement, as you must choose your team while anticipating your opponent’s selection. This gameplay is similar to classic strategy games such as (XCOM) and (Fire Emblem), which emphasize thoughtful decision-making.

2. Game settings and storyline

Qorpo World, a one-stop platform for Web3 games, introduced the story background of (Champion Tactics) in detail.

In Champions Tactics, Ubisoft has created a world filled with mystery and strategic warfare. Grimoria is a dark, mysterious realm where each champion has his or her own legendary past and where they engage in fierce battles.

The game's storyline is rooted in ancient legends, and a power struggle between mysterious forces sets the stage for players to engage in strategic combat. As players travel across Grimoria, they build a team of champions, each representing a part of the realm's history.

The storyline is built on a rich backstory involving ancient conflicts and forgotten powers, making players feel like they are part of the ongoing narrative. From small skirmishes to large-scale tactical operations, every action feels like it's uncovering Grimoria's hidden history.

3. Game characters and content

(Champions Tactics)'s champion characters all have their own skills, abilities and legends. Players assemble a team of three champions, carefully selecting based on strengths and weaknesses to complement their tactical approach. Each champion has a unique trait—some may be a magical warrior, a ferocious knight, or a cunning assassin—who provide both narrative depth and strategic value.

In addition to differences in skills, champion characters also differ in their usefulness in the game. Players are encouraged to think strategically when building their team, creating synergies between characters to turn the tide in battle.

Officials will also introduce seasonal updates and new champion characters, adding complexity and excitement to the gameplay.

4. Game asset management

Qorpo World pointed out that (Champion Tactics) features an asset management system based on blockchain technology. Not only do players control champions, they can also own them in the form of NFTs (non-fungible tokens).

This ownership provides multiple levels of participation, with champions able to be traded, sold, or upgraded, transforming the game from a mere strategy RPG into an asset-driven ecosystem where every decision has financial implications.

Each champion is crafted using Bloodstone, a unique NFT that increases in value as players progress through the game, gain abilities, or unlock rarer versions. The official marketplace provided by Ubisoft, which allows players to buy, sell or trade champions, mirrors real-world asset management.

This system increases the immersion of the game, because players must not only be familiar with strategies and tactics, but also pursue maximizing the value of the champion character.

5. Earn while playing mechanism

(Champion Tactics)'s earn-while-playing system provides players with the opportunity to cash out and make money. Players have the opportunity to earn $WOAS tokens, which are a wrapped version (Wrap) of the Oasys blockchain token $OAS.

By participating in battles, completing missions, and appearing in seasonal events, players will have the opportunity to earn in-game tokens and rare NFTs.

The charm of the earn-while-playing mechanism lies not only in accumulating profits, but also in helping players understand the market. Taking the gaming experience far beyond a typical Web2 game, players will face a dynamic economy where every in-game decision matters.

How to join the game?

According to (Decrypt) reports, in addition to the 75,000 championship NFTs open to minting on Oasys, Ubisoft is also launching 9,999 free NFT avatars in 2023, known as The Warlords.

Players who own Warlord NFT can gain early access to championship casting rights, VIP community status, and exclusive in-game privileges, increasing the stickiness of early participants to the game, and they are often the key to being willing to promote the game to other players.
