Animoca Brands Corporation Ltd’s hyper-casual gaming subsidiary GAMEE is poised to launch a second sale of G-Bot non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for its popular e-sports mobile blockchain game, Arc8. The sale will begin at 1pm coordinated universal time (UTC) on December 9, 2021, at gamee.com/gbots.
G-Bots are in-game characters designed to enhance gameplay experience and performance for the Arc8 gaming platform, which allows players to engage with skill-based play-to-earn games with GAMEE tokens (GMEE) as rewards.
GMEE is the utility token of GAMEE products, used for prizes and earnings, entry fees for game tournaments and purchases. GMEE is currently listed on Uniswap, Sushiswap, QuickSwap, Kucoin, MEXC and Bitmart.
G-Bots also grant players access to exclusive content like Sky Lords tournaments, and from the first quarter of 2022, the Bots can be staked to earn GMEE.
Animoca Brands appears to be rolling out NFT staking across many of its subsidiaries as Lympo just yesterday announced it would be introducing staking rewards to its gaming ecosystem.

Rapid growth since launch
The initial pre-sale of 1,000 G-Bot packs sold out within four minutes on November 2. GAMEE will now launch an additional 3,800 packs of G-bots to go on sale.
As with the first set sold, each G-Bot comes with a unique set of stats that will play a major role in all G-Bot-compatible games that can be further upgraded based on rarity of the G-Bot NFT.
Purchases of G-Bots require GMEE tokens bridged to Polygon. More details of the sale and G-Bots can be found here.
Arc8 is now the number one decentralised game on the Polygon chain with more than 1.5 million users since its launch in late October. The high growth of the Arc8 platform in October briefly pushed the Polygon chain above Ethereum in active daily users before being overtaken in the latest crypto surge.
