Ubisoft has a history of experimenting with Non-Fungible Tokens in gaming, and the company is set to further explore NFT gaming space with a new release. The Paris-based publisher, that makes popular triple-A titles like Assassin's Creed and Far Cry, launched Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles, a new free-to-play turn-based RPG with NFT integrations, on Wednesday. The competitive multiplayer title brings together traditional gaming and elements of Web3 to Ubisoft's player network on PC. Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles is now available to download via the Ubisoft Connect launcher.
Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles is a multiplayer tactical RPG set in the dark fantasy world of Grimoria. In the NFT-integrated game, players build teams of digital collectible “Champions” that come with unique abilities. With their Champions, players can take part in strategic, turn-based battles against other players online. Champions are NFTs and can thus be sold or traded on the marketplace. Players can also combine two existing Champions to create a new one by paying a crafting fee.
“Champions are magical playable figurines in the dark world of Grimoria. Each one of them is a living relic, an intricately crafted embodiment of Grimoria's history, a testament to the legendary Champions who once shaped its fate,” the official website of the game said, explaining the premise of the game.
The wait is over, Champions Tactics is live!
