Blockchain and gamification technologies are increasingly intertwined and Ubisoft presents Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, a project that combines classic gaming elements with innovative Web3 technologies.
Meet Champions Tactics
Ubisoft, creator of Assassin’s Creed, announced Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, its first project on blockchain, in July 2023. This PvP tactical RPG for PC is being developed using the Oasys blockchain, backed by major publishers such as Square Enix, Wemade and SEGA. At the time, details of the game’s NFT implementation were not yet revealed, but exciting gameplay and story were promised.
Free Ethereum NFTs
In November 2023, Ubisoft took the next step by announcing free Ethereum NFTs for Champions Tactics. This move followed the integration of NFT Tezos into the Ghost Recon Breakpoint game in 2021. The company planned to mine NFTs for the PFP Champions Tactics series on Oasys. The collection of NFTs, called ‘Warlords PFPs’, included 9,999 unique items with retro designs reminiscent of classic video games. Owning these NFTs promised early access to mint Champions figures in the game, also free.
Inside Grimoria: Unique Factions and Powerful Warlords
Champions Tactics opens the doors to the mystical world of Grimoria, a place where mythology and tactical battles merge into one. This amazing place is brought to life through seven unique factions, each with their own unique values, culture, and strategic goals. These factions not only enrich the game universe, but also add complexity to tactical decision making, as each offers a unique approach to the game.
The main feature of Grimoria is its Champions — not just game figures, but colourful embodiments of the history and mythology of the world. Each Champion has unique abilities and characteristics, making each game unique. Players face the exciting challenge of assembling a team of three Champions, where each choice can dramatically change the battle and strategy of the game.
Roadmap and the Future of Champions Tactics
The development and release of Champions Tactics is divided into several phases, starting with the Q4 2023 launch of the Warlords collection. This event is a key moment in the game’s development, ushering in an era of new possibilities for players.
The next phase will be the mint of Champions, which will not only expand the game experience, but also allow players to delve deeper into the world of Grimoria, enriching it with new characters and features. The peak of development will be the full release of the game in Phase 4, when the world of Grimoria will reveal all its secrets and possibilities to players.
The year 2024 promises to be full of exciting updates and new opportunities for player engagement. The developers of Champions Tactics plan not only to keep the game interesting, but also to constantly expand its capabilities by adding new elements, events and characters so that players can constantly find something new and interesting in the game.
Conclusion
Champions Tactics is more than a game; it is a synthesis of strategy and storytelling. Players are invited to create their own legends in the magical world of Grimoria. Stay tuned for the latest news and updates on Champions Tactics, which promises to redefine the boundaries of traditional gameplay by introducing elements of blockchain and Web3 technologies.
