Another NFT Game from Ubisoft: Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E.

As reported by Eurogamer on December 20th, Ubisoft's Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E. is a top-down multiplayer arcade shooter with a cryptocurrency-based entry system. According to Eden Online, this game expands the universe of Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, the Netflix series. Expect to see familiar faces and elements from popular Ubisoft franchises like Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed.

This competitive multiplayer experience is limited to 10,000 players. Access requires purchasing a Citizen ID Card NFT, acting as a player's digital passport, tracking rankings, achievements, and accolades. These cards dynamically evolve based on in-game performance.

To obtain a card, players need a crypto wallet and must purchase a Niji Warrior ID card NFT from Ubisoft's dedicated claim page for $25.63. ID holders can also relinquish their citizenship and resell their cards, potentially increasing their value based on in-game achievements.

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

The Netflix series, Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, serves as an animated spin-off of Far Cry 3’s Blood Dragon expansion. Set in an alternate 1992 where the US is Eden, a megacorporation-controlled technocracy, the series follows Dolph Laserhawk, a supersoldier who defects, engages in heists, and ultimately faces betrayal before being forced to work against his former partner.

While Ubisoft hasn't detailed the game's storyline, it's set within this same universe. Players assume the role of Eden citizens, influencing the narrative through mission completion, leaderboard rankings, and community engagement.
