Gala Games, the leading pioneer in web3 entertainment and blockchain gaming, today announced that Spider Tanks, the first Web3 PvP esports brawler, will launch on October 31, 2022 as the debut game on Project GYRI, Gala Games’ proprietary games-first blockchain. In anticipation of the launch, starting today Gala is kicking off a limited time sale for its Spider Tanks Planetary Nodes.
Planetary Nodes will be operated by community members who have purchased licenses in this sale. In return for using their computing resources to power the decentralized Spider Tanks ecosystem, Node operator-owners will earn regular rewards. More information about Planetary Nodes can be found at Gala.Games.
Developed by award-winning Netherlands-based GAMEDIA, this futuristic esports tank game is free to play, but also incorporates a variety of play-to-earn mechanics that center around skill-based competition, resource collection, and a player-driven upgrade cycle to earn real rewards.
In Spider Tanks, players create their own unique crawly contender by assembling tank bodies and weapons in their garage. Once their «Spider Tank» is complete, it’s on to mech mayhem as the mechanical monsters battle it out in Spider Tanks arena maps.
This esports brawler lets you play with a close group of friends or test your skills in high-stakes competition. Almost 25,000 players participated weekly in a recent public playtest, which resulted in a total of more than 600,000 matches. Fully tradable and upgradeable weapons, tanks and bodies can be found in the Spider Tanks store.
«Yet again we are ushering in new firsts in gaming as we get set to launch the first Web PvP esports brawler with earnings. Both players who play for free and those who choose to make purchases can be rewarded for their efforts,» said John Osvald, President of Games at Gala Games. «The launch of this game, coupled with that of our own blockchain, is further cementing our commitment to empowering gamers through ownership.»
Gala Games has recently released information on new game features including:
- Build Your Army
Experiment with unique combinations of tank bodies, weapons and special items in the battle arena. There are more than 30 hero tanks, 45 weapons, and 45 bodies in different levels of rarity to mix and match
- Upgrade Your Army
With each level upgrade, the tanks part’s power increase will vary depending on a random chance. Players can grind out upgrades that increase the scarcity and value of their Spider Tanks. The levels of the
upgraded items are random making each item unique and special in its own way while the chances for a fully optimized item are slim making it very attractive and valuable.
- Game Modes
There will be more game modes coming to the game.
Team Deathmatch: In this all-out brawl style match, the team with the most kills gets the victory.
Capture the Chicken: Your team’s goal is to capture as many moving chickens as possible.
Capture the Flag: There is only one flag, and the team who holds it in their possession the longest will be victorious in this match.
- Ways to Play
There are a number of ways to play:
Pilot – Jump in and control your Spider Tank directly, to fight in the PvP Maps, engaging in exciting moment-to-moment combat.
Captain – Build out your own army of Spider Tank pilots that fight for YOU on the PvP Maps.
Baron – Own a PvP Map and receive rewards from the battles that take place in your map.
- Ways to Earn
The game’s blockchain reward token system allows participants to earn Victory Points in a number of ways including winning matches, owning maps/land that host battles, and running Nodes.
- Choose Your Battleground
There are currently six maps including a safe haven with old mines, trepidatious tracks and rickety boardwalks, a jungle temple with wild and ancient ruins, a death canyon for a wild west showdown and a subzero arctic base. There will be more maps available when the game is launched.
