Ubisoft's Stealth NFT Game Launch: Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E.
Ubisoft quietly introduced Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E., a new NFT-based game requiring players to purchase a digital collectible to participate. This article delves into the details of this intriguing release.
A New Chapter in the Captain Laserhawk Universe
As reported by Eurogamer on December 20th, Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E. is a top-down multiplayer arcade shooter. Unlike traditional games, access is granted through cryptocurrency transactions. The game expands on the universe established by Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, the Netflix series, incorporating familiar Ubisoft franchises such as Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed.
The game's competitive multiplayer mode is limited to 10,000 players. Entry requires purchasing a Citizen ID Card NFT, a digital asset tracking player stats, achievements, and seasonal rankings. These cards dynamically evolve based on in-game performance.
NFT Access and In-Game Economy
Acquiring a Citizen ID Card necessitates owning a crypto wallet and purchasing a Niji Warrior ID card from Ubisoft's dedicated claim page for $25.63. Card ownership grants early access to the game, and players can later relinquish their citizenship and sell their IDs on the secondary market, potentially increasing their value based on in-game achievements.
Ubisoft's Magic Eden page indicates a full game launch in Q1 2025, with early access for those who secured IDs early.
A Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon Legacy
The Netflix series, Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, serves as the inspiration, acting as an animated spin-off of Far Cry 3's Blood Dragon expansion. Set in an alternate 1992, the series depicts a dystopian United States ruled by the megacorporation Eden. The story follows Dolph Laserhawk, a supersoldier, his betrayal, and his subsequent mission to thwart his former ally's plans.
While Ubisoft hasn't disclosed the game's narrative specifics, it's confirmed to share the same universe, casting players as citizens under Eden's control. Player actions, including mission completion and community involvement, will influence the game's storyline and leaderboard rankings.
