- First 2,000 Operator NFT will have a private sale followed by public mint on June 9.
- Shrapnel aims to become the Roblox for adult gamers, with a buildable environment.
Shrapnel, an upcoming game on the Avalanche network, is preparing for its public mint this June 9. The game will offer an AAA-grade experience, while also building its own comic universe and offer exclusive perks.
Shrapnel to Become the Roblox for Adults
Shrapnel aims to become an engaging game for the 30+ gamer crew, offering an immersive experience. The game is one of the few with a goal of creating a 3D first-person shooter, similar to the feat of Undead Blocks.
While Undead Blocks uses NFT mostly for weapons and centers its mints around new weapon models, Shrapnel has four major types of NFT. Players can reserve their call signs on the blockchain. They can also own land in the game’s metaverse. Equipment also comes as NFT, as well as craftable items from resources, to upgrade gear. There will also be vanity or cosmetic tools to alter gear and the environment.
Shrapnel is one of the partners of Rainmaker Games, which adds some of the top blockchain and earnings offers to its hub, with the potential to reach out to more potential players.
Shrapnel will have a single-token economy based on SHRAP, an Avalanche-based token. The game will also build its own subnet for low latency. SHRAP will be staked to avoid the incentive to sell, and can also grant rewards for rare cosmetic items or metaverse land plots.
What is the Operators Collection
Shrapnel will first sell its Operators collection, featuring the main game characters. The total NFT mint will encompass 10,000 items, with variations on the main players and their gear and look.
The game will offer a whitelisting period starting from June 7, before the final NFT distribution. Additional events will distribute other Operators.
The game is still quite far from launching its main gameplay, and the utility of the initial NFT may be limited. On the positive side, the collection has secured an OpenSea listing and will grow the game’s prominence.
