Deadrop, the highly anticipated NFT shooter game by DrDisrespect has finally launched its pre-alpha access after a long wait. The launch included an exciting gameplay showcase and reveal, which included participation from esports stars and other professional players in Arlington, Texas. 

Deadrop is a unique web3 game that has both PVP(Player vs Player) and PVE(Player vs Environment) elements, similar to popular games web3 games such as Warzone and Apex Legends. The game features a retro aesthetic, describing itself as a world where the 80s never ended. Additionally, Deadrop also has a unique "teaming" element to the extraction FPS genre, with developers encouraging gamers to team up in an otherwise win-by-yourself survival genre.

The showcase event attracted a huge audience, with approximately 22,000 viewers and a substantial in-person crowd at the venue. DrDisrespect announced development for Deadrop last year and has since then worked closely with his web3 game studio, MidnightSociety, into developing a gamer-friendly blockchain-based shooter with mass appeal.

DrDisrespect has been a vocal supporter of NFT games, and he recently doubled down on his support for them. However, Deadrop's 10,000 Founders Pass NFTs do not directly affect gameplay. Instead, they offer added benefits such as voting rights, exclusive merchandise, and more access. This allows a friendlier on-boarding process for traditional gamers to try out the game since it assures that premium players won’t have a significant advantage in-game using paid features.

The launch of Deadrop's pre-alpha access has been highly anticipated and is looking to live up to the hype as established by fans and multiple web3 content creators. Players can join the limited early access by owning Deadrop’s NFT, for now. As developers have stated, the full game release will be entirely free to play.

Final Thoughts

Midnight Society has done an excellent job with the pre-alpha launch, and they have set high expectations for the game's official release. Considering the NFT game’s massive hurdles towards mass adoption, Deadrop is one of the few iconic titles that can likely turn heads toward web3 gaming.

It will be exciting to see how it evolves and grows in the coming months. If you want to learn more about Deadrop, you can visit this page for more information.
