Ubisoft's Latest NFT Offering

Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E. Unveiled

As reported by Eurogamer on December 20th, Ubisoft quietly launched Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E., a top-down multiplayer arcade shooter. Gameplay necessitates the use of cryptocurrency.

According to Eden Online, the game expands the universe of Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, the Netflix series. The game and series will feature familiar Ubisoft IPs, including Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed.

Limited to 10,000 players, access is granted via a Citizen ID Card NFT. This card tracks player achievements and rankings, evolving based on in-game performance.

Acquiring Citizenship

To obtain a Citizen ID Card, players must possess a crypto wallet and purchase an NFT Niji Warrior ID card from Ubisoft's dedicated claim page for $25.63. Citizens can relinquish their citizenship and resell their IDs, potentially increasing their value based on in-game success.

Ubisoft's Magic Eden page indicates a full launch in Q1 2025, with early access for those who have already secured an ID.

A Netflix Series Inspired by Far Cry 3's DLC

Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, the Netflix series, is an animated spin-off of Far Cry 3's Blood Dragon expansion. Set in an alternate 1992, the United States is Eden, a technocracy ruled by a single megacorporation.

The series follows Dolph Laserhawk, a supersoldier who defects and later becomes a member of The Ghosts, tasked with thwarting his former partner's plans.

While Ubisoft hasn't detailed the game's storyline, it shares the same universe, placing players as citizens under Eden's control. Player actions, including mission completion and community involvement, influence the game's narrative.
