Ubisoft's Stealth NFT Game Launch: Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E.

Ubisoft quietly unveiled its latest NFT-based game, Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E., requiring players to purchase an NFT to participate. This article delves into the details of this intriguing release.
A New Chapter in the Captain Laserhawk Universe

As reported by Eurogamer on December 20th, Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E. is a top-down multiplayer arcade shooter with a crypto-centric twist. According to Eden Online, the game expands upon the Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix Netflix series, incorporating familiar Ubisoft franchises like Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed.
Limited Access and Evolving NFTs
The game's competitive multiplayer experience is limited to 10,000 players. Access requires purchasing a Citizen ID Card NFT, which tracks in-game achievements and rankings. These cards dynamically evolve based on player performance. The card, priced at $25.63, can be acquired through Ubisoft's claim page, requiring a crypto wallet. Players also have the option to relinquish their citizenship and resell their IDs, potentially increasing their value based on in-game success.
Launch and Early Access
Ubisoft's Magic Eden page indicates a full launch in Q1 2025. However, early access is granted to those who have already secured their Citizen ID Cards.
A Far Cry Blood Dragon Legacy

The Netflix series, Captain Laserhawk: A Blood Dragon Remix, serves as the game's inspiration. It's a spin-off of Far Cry 3's Blood Dragon expansion, set in an alternate 1992 where the US is a megacorporation-controlled technocracy called Eden. The series follows Dolph Laserhawk, a supersoldier turned defector, and his complex relationship with his former partner.
Gameplay and Narrative Influence
While Ubisoft hasn't detailed the game's storyline, it's confirmed to be set within the same universe, with players assuming the role of Eden citizens. Player actions, missions, leaderboard rankings, and community involvement directly influence the game's narrative progression.
