Game development is in collaboration with the Arbitrum Foundation and Sequence, the crypto game development company that raised $40 million in funding from Ubisoft.
Ubisoft, developer and publisher of games like Assassin’s Creed and Just Dance, announced that they are working on a new game built on top of the Ethereum layer 2 scaling network Arbitrum.
What’s the Significance: Players can earn rewards while engaging with a familiar storyline inspired by Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon.
What is Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E?
Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E. (General Assignment Mandatory Entertainment) will be based in the same universe as the Netflix animated series “Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix.”
- Game Characters: The game will feature characters from other franchises, including Assassin’s Creed, Rayman, and Beyond Good & Evil, as clarified by Ubisoft.
- The Ubisoft Ecosystem Involvement: The game publisher also stressed that players can make progress by “overcoming challenges across various channels inside and outside Ubisoft’s ecosystem.”
- Community-Centric Goal: The players will also be part of a web3 governance system so they can decide about the possible plot of the game.
Key Quote:
“As the story unfolds, the entire community will have the opportunity to influence the plot and participate in key decision-making moments by unlocking, creating, and sharing content. This experience stands out for its unprecedented level of player influence over the game’s development, empowering the community to help craft its evolution.”
The Ubisoft Team
Why Arbitrum? Ubisoft Labs VP Nicolas Pouard said they chose to develop Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E. on the Arbitrum because they believe that the network can enable their community-centric goal.
- The goal is not just the community creating the story, but even in gameplay and side experiences.
- For Pouard, achieving their community-centric goal “fosters transparency and shared creation, paving the way for a truly collaborative future for Captain Laserhawk.”
Zoom out: Aside from Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E., Ubisoft is also developing Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, an upcoming PvP tactical RPG on Oasys Network.
