Blizzard new works:Web 3 version of StarCraft
2021-12-27
In 1997, the real-time strategy game StarCraft released by Blizzard Entertainment was popular all over the world, and it also ignited the flames of future space wars.
The wheel of history is rolling forward, and the pendulum of time will stop in 2021. With the advent of digital civilization, more popular games have been popular. The wave of blockchain games led by Axie infinity has eclipsed the traditional game giants.
We can see that the various limitations of Web 2.0 have restricted the space for gamers and a new batch of digital worlds, resulting in a certain negative experience.
So, under the concept of Web3, is it possible for traditional games to be improved and given new vitality?
The answer is yes. The Blizzard team is exploring and using the underlying technology of Crypto culture and blockchain to create a new version of StarCraft to make the classic StarCraft game more interesting.
StarCraft was released on BSC. It is a real-time strategy game based on blockchain. It is the blockchain game version of StarCraft, because the core team of the project includes Blizzard, the original developer of StarCraft.
Game system
The new version of StarCraft tells the story of the struggle for supremacy in the Coplu star field at the center of the galaxy in the early 31st century. Different from the previous three races, this time we mainly focus on the two races of humans and Zerg (evolved Zerg). Every planet is working hard to resist the Zerg attack and become stronger.
1. Planetary civilizationAfter entering the game, players can purchase planets to build civilizations, upgrade planetary civilization levels, and have corresponding level attributes. The planet has three attributes: energy value/defense value/offensive value. Energy value represents mining ability, defense value represents defense ability when encountering external attacks, and offensive value represents combat power when actively attacking other civilizations.
After upgrading to level 5 civilization, the planet can launch external attacks. Level 6 civilization can use α-level equipment, and level 7 civilization can use β-level equipment.
2. Combat mechanism
PVP battle:Players can match each other and win tokens as rewards
Ladder system:In order to encourage players to participate in the game, the system will rank the players, and the players with high ranking will receive treasure chest rewards
multiplayer game:In the future, we will start multiplayer team mode in the more difficult Galaxy. Only multiplayer games can win the final victory in the more difficult galaxy.
When the offensive attribute of planet A is higher than the defensive attribute of planet B, the offensive team wins and the winning player gets a reward. The greater the difference in attribute values, the higher the reward.
Every time the planet civilization is upgraded, the player can use the 6 attributes obtained to increase the three attributes of the planet, increase the corresponding attack or defense capabilities, and help win the battle.
3. Game revenuePlanet mining obtains SCT tokens, and the income is proportional to the planet level and equipment
Invite friends to participate in planet mining to get extra rewards
Winners of PVP battles can get SCT tokens
Raise your rank to get treasure chest rewards
If you win the Galactic Adventure, you can get treasure chests and rare materials
Featured gameplay
1. Limited Planetary LotteryPlayers can use 1000 SCTs to participate in the advanced planet lottery each time, and only 1000 advanced planets can be drawn. After the planet lottery is over, users can directly buy planets, but the purchased planets start from level 1.
2. Equip the blind boxPlayers can use the SCT to extract the blind box of the device. The function of the blind box will always exist for every 1000 SCTs consumed. Of course, the blind box is not only the only way to obtain equipment, players can also forge their own equipment through SCT.
3. Galactic AdventurePlanets of level 3 or higher can take a galaxy adventure every 24 hours. Win the battle with the Zerg and you will get treasure chests, experience points and material fragments. Advanced galaxies may require players to have higher levels and treasure chests. The key can be opened.
4. Auction HouseThe autonomy of Web3 and the asset confirmation of the NFT are used to help StarCraft make greater innovations, and players can obtain ownership of the digital assets they purchase in the game. In StarCraft, players can control their identity (planet), data and assets created. Planets, equipment, material fragments, drawings, etc. are all unique NFTs, which means players can directly buy what they need from the auction house. Things that can improve the attributes of your planet.
