First Look at Kiraverse: New Shooter on Immutable X

Kiraverse, a new third-person shooter built with Unreal Engine 5, is soon releasing its Open Beta version on the Immutable X blockchain! Players can count on being able to use NFTs from other collections, cross-platform gameplay, and an AAA-quality game. Its community is already large and a partnership with GameStop was already made.

Kiraverse is being developed by Param Labs and has been in a private alpha since Q3 of 2022. The next phase is the public alpha and the ‘Season 1: Training Grounds’, which will be initially available for NFT holders in Q4 of 2022. Initially, there will be two main game modes available:

  • Battle Royale – Solos, duos, trios, squads
  • Elimination – 1vs1 up to 10vs10

Then each game mode will be playable in three different extensions:

  • Free Extension – just for fun
  • Wager Extension – survive to win cash prizes
  • Earn per Kill Extension – each kill equals higher rewards

Both last extensions are more competitive and players will be rewarded if they are successful in outplaying their opponents. Another interesting feature is vehicles, the team mentioned on their tweeter that players will have access to Motorcycles, hoverboards, flying cars, and armored trucks. Besides vehicles, the team also showed intentions of bringing Kiraverse to the Esports world.

This is the type of fast-paced action game where players will need to develop fast reflexes to survive. It will be easy to kill and even easier to get killed in Kiraverse’s game modes.

KIRA, NFTs and Play-and-Earn

Many titles are choosing Immutable X as their ecosystem, and Kiraverse is no exception. By interacting with Immutable X and partnering up with GameStop, Kiraverse’s NFTs will be available on both marketplaces. When it comes to this project’s NFT collection there is a total supply of 10,001 characters that can be used in-game and they have the following utility:

  • More KIRA tokens when playing
  • Renting
  • Staking to earn KIRA
  • Free matches
  • Free in-game skins
  • Purchase/earn all characters and weapons
  • NFT integrate as an in-game avatar

You can check out the collection on the GameStop NFT marketplace.

NFTs from other collections will also be used as in-game avatars like Meta Boy, Pudgy Penguins, and BAYC.

Then there is KIRA, which is an in-game token and not a cryptocurrency. KIRA can be purchased with FIAT and will be used to buy NFTs from Kira’s marketplace. Players will not be able to trade KIRA, but they will be able to sell the NFTs they buy with KIRA.

Even though this is a Web3 Play-and-Earn game it is completely free to play. Every player will be able to access all the content of Kiraverse without any cost.
