Nova Battles is an offshoot of love for Web2 games like League of Legends, Dota 2, and Pokemon Unite. The founder of Nova Battles, having played and enjoyed these mentioned games, decided to create something similar but on blockchain technology.
Furthermore, the concept had to go beyond what he was passionate about to something that will be community-driven. So even after bringing together a team, with a vision, the needs of a community of gamers who love such games were meant to be part of the pillars of the vision of Nova battles.
What is Nova Battles?
Nova Battles is a community-based play-to-earn (P2E) mobile multiplayer online arena game powered by Ethereum blockchain. The game is designed to provide easy onboarding for gamers who love such genres and to grant access to earn while playing.
It was first conceived in 2019 and has been undergoing several designs and tests to meet up with the required standards for end-users. Nova Battles, being focused on community, will give access to other gaming communities to participate in their ecosystem creating a larger environment for sharing, playing, and earning. So it’s called “The People’s Game” depicting the vision.
How Does Nova Battles Work
To participate in Nova Battles, players are required to select one of many Champions (avatars in form of NFTs) which are free. And then compete with others using any game mode and a Map.
These Champions have specific skills and attributes that make them unique and awesome for battles. Amongst the Champions are Support Champions that help the main champion during a fight. The fighting modes can be PVP or PVE
For each fight, there are Battle Rewards given to players for their activities. Nova Soul in Nova Battles is the main driver of the ecosystem. Players consume this energy resource while fighting. They can be purchased in the Marketplace, during pre-sale and through other means.
Apart from consuming Nova Souls, they can be Rented and Leased from the Marketplace. They can also be Crafted.
This Crafting process is open to anyone, and the community. For instance, “our integration of SHIBOSHIS to customize the avatar of the players’ NoVa Soul NFT to create a brand new NFT artwork and design,” says the team on inter-community collaboration.
Challenges & the Road Map of Nova Battles
DCD Ecosystem, WidiLand, DeFi Kingdom, Animalia are some of the major contenders in the same market segment Nova Battles is targeting. Competition is the first challenge it will face once it’s fully launched. The team will need to devise a good marketing plan to onboard users.
Then the road map starts with the initiation stage in Q4 2021 where conceptualization started. Q1 of 2022 highlights confirmation of game design, development, and the first release of the Whitepaper.
Pre-sale of NoVa Soul, the launch of the game token, and the release of the beta version will be seen in Q2 2022. The first tournament in the game and development of the NVA consumer system is expected for Q3 2022.
Q4 2022 and Q1 2023 will be focused on upgrading several systems including the game economy system, UI/UX.
