Developed by Gunzilla Games, Off the Grid introduces a new dimension to the Battle Royale genre by integrating blockchain technology.
Although the game's full functionality is not yet available, this early release offers players a preview of its unique gameplay mechanics and blockchain-based economy.
What is off-grid?
Off the Grid is a dystopian battle royale shooter that places players on a large city map where teams must outlast each other to survive.
The game has similarities to popular titles such as Apex Legends and fortnite, but introduces a unique mechanic where players can equip and swap robotic limbs during a match, offering new abilities and tactical options.
The game also aims to stand out for its narrative approach, with more than 60 hours of story content planned, developed under the direction of co-founder Neill Blomkamp, director and screenwriter of popular films. District 9 and My uncle.
What can we expect from early access?
The early access version of the game includes a large city map and a 60-player mode called “Extraction Royale,” where teams of three compete against each other. Players can earn GUN tokens by completing in-game objectives, although the full blockchain economy is not yet active.
The GUN token, which is based on Gunzilla's Avalanche subnet, is expected to boost the in-game economy once it is fully launched, enabling the minting and trading of nfts such as weapons and equipment. At this stage, players can only access a limited set of features, and full blockchain integration is planned for future updates.
As Off the Grid moves into its early access phase, Gunzilla Games plans to expand its content, including new game modes, maps, and the full implementation of the GUN token on the Avalanche mainnet.
