Ubisoft, renowned for blockbuster franchises like Assassin’s Creed and Just Dance, is making waves in the blockchain gaming realm. This week, it's launching a free NFT mint for its debut blockchain title, Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles.

The Details of the Mint

Scheduled on Oasys, a dedicated gaming network, the mint allows players to collect 75,000 in-game champion figurines. Notably, there are no gas fees, making it accessible to all. Holders of Ubisoft’s Warlords NFTs will have priority, enabling them to claim up to five champions initially.

Starting July 18, players without Warlords NFTs can also participate. The process requires a Ubisoft account, an Oasys wallet, and participants must be at least 18 years old.

Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles marks Ubisoft's venture into blockchain-based strategy games, first announced last summer. With the closed beta launched recently, Ubisoft is gearing up for a full-scale release later this year.

Collaborative Efforts with Aleph.im

Ubisoft collaborates with Aleph.im, leveraging their decentralized cloud computing capabilities. Aleph.im's "verifiable random function" ensures fair distribution during the minting process, enhancing transparency for users claiming these digital assets.

Warlords NFTs, originally distributed for free, now hold significant secondary market value, averaging around $210 worth of ETH. The project has generated substantial trading volume, highlighting growing interest and engagement within the gaming NFT space.

As Ubisoft continues to innovate in blockchain gaming, the launch of Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles and its associated NFT mint represents a pivotal step. The integration of blockchain technology not only introduces new revenue streams but also enhances player engagement through ownership of digital assets within the game.

Final Thoughts

Ubisoft’s initiative underscores its commitment to merging traditional gaming with blockchain innovation. The introduction of free NFT mints for Champions Tactics on Oasys reflects a broader industry trend towards decentralized gaming experiences. With collaborations like Aleph.im, Ubisoft aims to pioneer fair and accessible blockchain gaming ecosystems, fostering community involvement and digital ownership among players worldwide.
