The Spark (ep. #33)

Hello and welcome to the episode #33 of “The Spark“ newsletter!

Here you can find everything you need to stay up-to-date with upcoming and existing NFT projects and web3 games.

Now let’s dive into the info

Episode structure:

[Early alpha] section:

1. BRAWL3RS (5180 followers)

• AI-powered autobattler game, built on Unreal Engine 5

• Part of Balthazar ecosystem, backed by Animoca Brands

• F2P alpha version launch with real money prizes is coming soon

My take:

As I understand, this game is kind of like AI Arena (other project), but in a visually better setting, since Brawl3rs is being built on UE 5.

The main difference to other fighting games: usage of real-time data and AI to determine fight outcomes. Gameplay depends not only on personal skill, but also on strategy.

Upcoming alpha test will be free-to-join, with some monetary rewards on top of that. Native token will be launched at a later date.

I’m not sure if they’ll be launching a NFT collection anytime soon, but I’d keep an eye on their further development, since the idea is still fairly fresh.
