Eden Games to Launch Blockchain-Integrated Cosmic Royale in Animoca Brands’ Motorverse

Eden Games Introduces Cosmic Royale

Game development studio Eden Games, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands known for its legendary racing titles like Gear.Club and V-Rally, has announced the launch of Cosmic Royale, a new Web3 party royale kart racing game. This announcement marks the studio's first fully blockchain-integrated project.

Cosmic Royale is part of Animoca Brands’ Motorverse, a global ecosystem centered around digital vehicle ownership, racing games, and motorsport culture. The game is presented by Mocaverse and will serve as the pilot gaming experience for Mocaverse’s new social gamification platform, Cosmic Club.

Gameplay and Features

Cosmic Royale offers an exhilarating gameplay experience featuring 40-player matches across multiple rounds of racing and obstacle navigation, culminating in a survival finale. The core gameplay revolves around the Cosmic Tournament, a head-to-head multiplayer event where players compete to be the last racer standing.

The game promises to deliver a unique experience as players race through several rounds, qualifying for successive races until only one contestant remains. Moca NFT holders can integrate their unique NFTs into the game, using them as personalized kart drivers and unlocking special karts and parts.

Exclusive Access and Rewards

Moca ID holders will gain exclusive beta access to Cosmic Royale and can earn Realm Points (RP) by playing the game. These points qualify them for airdrops of MOCA Coin, provided they meet other criteria. Additionally, players can use RPs on the Cosmic Club website to participate in a special daily leaderboard with more RP rewards.

David Nadal, creative director at Eden Games, expressed his excitement, stating, “We’re tremendously excited to finally unveil Cosmic Royale and welcome hundreds of thousands of players to participate in the Cosmic Tournament and earn exciting rewards.”

Future Launch

While the beta version of Cosmic Royale is accessible only to Moca NFT and ID holders, the full launch version of the game will be available to all players for free in Q4 2024 on the Epic Games Store. This inclusive approach ensures that players do not need specific NFTs or fungible tokens to participate.

Kenneth Shek, project lead for Mocaverse, added, “Moca Network has built Cosmic Club to empower social interaction amongst users via gamification. Cosmic Royale is a highly engaged multiplayer game with strong social and competitive elements. We are very excited to work with Eden Games to anchor Cosmic Club with Cosmic Royale.”
