Cantina Royale — WEB3 Games for the next Billion (Giveaway details)
Cantina Royale is a free-to-play cross-platform tactical action shooter. It’s beautiful graphics and addictive gameplay are already enough to earn it a place at the top of its genre immediately after its July launch.
But what will make it even better is the integration of Elrond blockchain technology. Characters and items become upgradeable NFTs. Players are able to buy, sell or lend them. The game has its own economy, based on the $CRT token, which players are buying to pay for upgrades and new items, and earn as rewards for winning PvE or PvP games.
The lending element will be essential for onboarding free-to-play users. Think of it as an owner lending his racing car to a talented driver, and sharing race prizes.
Here, the drivers are free-to-play users, and the car owners are NFT owners. Owning an NFT is essential for engaging with play-to-earn mechanics. But unlike other blockchain games, owning an NFT is not mandatory, which means more people can start playing immediately.
Perhaps most importantly, the interaction is so seamless and rewarding that new players won’t have to know about the blockchain components but they will be able to explore the full benefits they bring.
Cantina Royale is the first in a new breed of games, experiences, and economies. Perhaps this will be the wave that will carry blockchain gaming outside of its current niche and into the mainstream.
Enabling users all over the world to create new economies and grow them alongside friends is extraordinary. Being able to do so via Elrond as one of the most advanced blockchains in the space is even better.
Incorporating all these features while making them invisible and seamless for players to interact with. This is the crucial advantage where Cantina Royale opens a new and remarkable path.
Experiences, achievements and assets that will be transportable between virtual realms will likely become the norm in all video games. And perhaps in business, productivity, social and other platforms too.
One thing is clear: true ownership of income generating assets that are transportable between games will transform the space.
And allowing players to engage in a partnership relationship with developers, to co-own and jointly drive its evolution will vastly augment its economic footprint.
There are, of course, obstacles. And paradigm shifts cannot happen overnight. But Cantina Royale brings a new model. One that could undoubtedly reshape the gaming space.
