About Eternals Pew Pew
Eternals Pew Pew is a free 2D browser shooter set in the world of Eternia. Players take control of the Holy Cat, a sky defender who fights off waves of airborne enemies. Each mission is short and uses limited ammunition. Players must react fast, manage resources, and focus on accuracy.
Enemy patterns are randomized, so each session feels different. The game stays fresh for new and returning players. There are 3 difficulty modes. Easy is beginner-friendly. Normal and Hard introduce stronger enemies, faster attacks, and boss battles. Players who choose higher challenges gain more Shooting EXP, which helps improve their leaderboard rankings. Missions end when players defeat the required number of enemies before the timer runs out. Optional bonus objectives may appear and completing them gives extra rewards.
Eternals Pew Pew runs directly in a browser on PC. Players can sign in using email, Google, Apple, or Facebook accounts. Those interested in web3 features can connect wallets such as Coin98 Wallet or Ramper Wallet. The game runs on the Viction blockchain and supports zero gas transactions, making in-game actions simple and cost-free.
The team has tested and refined the game through several development stages. The Alpha Playtest introduced the core shooting experience. The Open Beta expanded the features, added new systems, and improved user experience. Important additions include opening Boxes and Chests, crafting with formulas, and trading items on the Marketplace. Players now have more long-term goals to pursue beyond mission clearing.

Features Introduced in the Open Beta
The Open Beta brought large changes compared to the Alpha phase. Box and Chest systems were added. Boxes contain crafting materials, and their rarity determines the rarity of materials. Chests reward players with guns or leaderboard points. When the seasonal leaderboard is inactive, Chests instead return gold.
Crafting lets players combine materials with formulas to create new Chests. This system gives players an extra option for progression and increases the value of every mission reward.
The Marketplace is another major feature. Players can trade items using Space Stones, the premium in-game currency. Guns, Chests, Boxes, and crafting materials are tradable if they are epic rarity or higher. This keeps supply balanced and maintains value for strong equipment. With the Marketplace active, players can sell unused items and buy missing ones to strengthen their progression strategy.
The Open Beta also runs on a structured cycle system. Each cycle has a weekly leaderboard, while the seasonal leaderboard tracks performance across all cycles. Rewards come in ETER and are distributed through Coin98 Vault.
Cycle 3 is the final chapter before the season ends. Players now have a last window to enter the Top 50 and secure seasonal rewards. The team also released clarifications on reward distribution and added the special $200 bonus from Holy Cat. A Rate Snapshot Day for the token is scheduled for December 8.

How to Play and Progress in Cycle 3
To join Cycle 3, players visit the official website and sign in. Missions require Energy, which regenerates over time and can also be purchased with Space Stones. During missions, players destroy enemies and try to avoid damage. Successful missions reward gold, Shooting EXP, and Boxes. Shooting EXP is crucial because it drives leaderboard placement.
Crafting is a key system in Cycle 3. Players use materials from Boxes to create Chests, which may generate weapons or leaderboard points. This supports progress in both the Shooting and Crafting rankings. Stronger weapons improve performance in boss fights and allow more efficient EXP gains, creating a clear upgrade loop.
Players can also trade during Cycle 3. The Marketplace helps fill inventory gaps when certain materials or weapons are needed. Smart trading can make a real difference in the final push for leaderboard placement.
