Animoca Brands Corporation Ltd subsidiary Blowfish Studios has launched the Astrafer token – the “official governance and utility” token for the AAA open-world mech combat game Phantom Galaxies.
Phantom Galaxies is an open-world mech combat game currently in public Alpha release. As one of the first blockchain-based game titles with AAA scope and quality, it is attracting both traditional gaming enthusiasts as well as Web3 natives.
Three of the four episodes of the Alpha version are available now, and the fourth episode will be available in late July 2022.
“Essential part” of the game
The Astrafer token is an essential part of Phantom Galaxies, providing governance functions as well as in-game utility.
Players will be able to use Astrafer tokens to buy and mint NFTs for the game, beginning with the upcoming Thermopylae Poster 3 NFT.
Poster NFTs allow players to redeem special limited-edition Avatars and Generative Starfighters, which are powerful mech vehicles used to play Phantom Galaxies.
“Astrafite Rush” play-and-earn event
Phantom Galaxies players will be able to earn Astrafer tokens by participating in the Astrafite Rush' in-game event, which is scheduled to be released with Episode 4 of the game’s Alpha version in late July 2022.
Holders of Planet Genesis Mintpass NFTs, which represent future Planets and Asteroids in the Phantom Galaxies universe when the game launches, will be able to earn additional Astrafer tokens during the event.
The total reward pool for the Astrafite Rush event will start at 2,664,234 ASTRAFER, and can grow up to 4,440,389 ASTRAFER over the course of the event, depending on the progress of all players contributing to various community objectives.
