You have probably already heard about it but I was surprised that many still aren't aware of one of the most anticipated games on ImmutableX. Unlike other blockchain games that are currently released, Guild of Guardians will focus on creating a really enjoyable gameplay first and the earning aspect will be the cherry on top. This is crucial for building a sustainable model. The game is not yet released but from my experience, the best thing you can do is get in as early as possible. If I’ve caught your attention, continue reading below!
What is Guild of Guardians?
Guild of Guardians is undoubtedly one of the biggest projects in GameFi with more than 500,000 community members across social media platforms & a pre-registration list. If you’re familiar with the NFT gaming space, you have most likely heard of GoG. It will be a free-to-play mobile fantasy RPG game heavily focused on action and guild mechanics. Built on the dominant Ethereum network with ImmutableX as the layer 2 scaling solution. This promises instant and most importantly gas FREE transactions.
The goal will be to build a strategic team with your guildmates and venture into dungeons to complete challenges where strategy will be as important as skill. The team composition, synergies and play styles matter as well as timing and fast reflexes to dodge. Using the newly acquired experience and items players will be able to progressively enter harder dungeons and earn better NFTs. Not only that but guild raids, PVP, land gameplay, Esports and etc. I believe at this point you already know why Guild of Guardians has such a massive following, but there is more.
Guilds
As you can probably guess by the name, Guild of Guardians will heavily focus on the guild component. If you want to potentially earn money, be competitive and enjoy the game to the fullest you definitely have to join a guild! To create a guild you will be required to hold a guild token. They are of different rarities and prices of course. The guild tokens sale quickly sold out so the only way to get one right now is on the secondary market. Now would be the perfect time to buy an Adventurers/Warriors Guild (Which is the cheapest and smallest one) because of the current market conditions. The bigger guild tokens (Legends and Mythic) haven’t seen much of a drop and are holding their price but they are for serious investors (Apes). They start from $100,000 for Legendary and 2,6 million for Mythic ones.
How can you earn
There will be multiple ways for you to earn. The first and probably most used one will be guild crafting. For your guild to craft, you will need to play together and loot the necessary materials. Planning and diversity in your heroes is important here because some materials will only drop for heroes of certain factions. Guild crafting will be the only way to create new NFT items in the game so you would want to find a guild as soon as possible.
The second way to earn, which will be really pleasing to free-to-play fans, is by merging heroes. Players will be able to earn common heroes (non-NFT) which can then be merged into Rare ones (NFT) and then play them to start earning more. You can even work your way up to owning a Legendary hero with merging. The cheapest founder Legendary hero as of today is $720.
Apart from that, there will be daily token rewards that can be earned by progressing milestones, completing daily quests and etc. Leaderboard prizes, NFT drops from Guild Raids and Guild wars are also in the planning.
When can I play?
According to the updated roadmap released by the team, the pre-alpha demo will be released in the first half of 2022, although the team has stated they are on track for the first quarter of 2022. The Testnet alpha will be launched in the second half of 2022, release on main-net is planned for the first half of 2023 and the full polished game is set to be released during the second half of 2023. Yes, it is a long wait but in the GameFi world the earlier you join the better. There will be more events, contests and hopefully sales before the release and prices will only go up the closer we get to release.
I am looking forward to seeing where this project takes blockchain gaming and am sure it will be one of the first to start disrupting the current gaming industry. I tried covering most of the key points but please let me know if I missed something. Will be answering all questions in the comments
