Arbitrum Foundation and Ubisoft have announced that web3 shooter Captain Laserhawk: The GAME will launch on December 18.
Captain Laserhawk: The GAME is a multiplayer shooter inspired by the Netflix animated series Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix. The game will launch on Arbitrum (ARB) and will integrate the web3 Sequence wallet solution.
The Sequence team is backed by notable sponsors such as Take-Two Interactive, Brevan Howard, Ubisoft, and Coinbase.
Free Mint nft at Magic Eden
Ahead of launch, Arbitrum and Ubisoft have partnered with Magic Eden to release a free Niji Warrior non-fungible token collection coin. This nft collection, which became available on December 11, offers exclusive perks to players, including early access, VIP community channels, and unique rewards.
Niji Warrior nfts will help with the game's onboarding experience, the platforms said in a Press release.
“Today's minting and next week's release will be a pivotal moment as we look to the future of game development and the player experience. Players have always followed the stories, character arcs, and game designs they were given. Now that changes,” said Nina Rong, head of partnerships at the Arbitrum Foundation.
Ubisoft, a leading publisher of AAA games, is known for its globally successful franchises including Assassin's Creed, Brawlhalla and Tom Clancy series such as Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six and The Division.
The company's investments in blockchain gaming include partnerships with Immutable, Cronos, and Hedera.
In October, Ubisoft announced the debut of its web3 game Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles on Oasys. This came months after the game's publisher revealed plans for a gaming partnership with Arbitrum: Captain Laserhawk: The GAME's initial announcement on Arbitrum was on August 6, 2024.
