Animoca Brands levels up with Planet IX gaming tournament

Gamers at the ready — Animoca Brands Corporation Ltd is teaming up with online strategy game Planet IX for a special Web3 event.

Starting tomorrow, participants will gain exposure to all things crypto over a seven-day affair, where Animoca’s GAMEE subsidiary will showcase the 13 core games in its Arc8 app.

The leaderboard-style event has a wide range of prizes on offer; IXT tokens (a type of cryptocurrency), Planet IX Arcade non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and a special kind of NFT known as a Starter Pack.

For those in it to win it, Animoca is throwing down the gauntlet over two special tournaments: the Run! tournament and the Token Takeover Across Arc8 event.

Run! tournament

Animoca’s first tournament is free to enter and will run from March 16 to March 23. The top 20 players will win a shiny Arcade NFT, while the top 2,000 will walk away with a Starter Pack token.

To qualify for rewards, players must have their on-chain wallet connected and paired with GAMEE’s Arc8 app.

Once the dust settles, Arcade NFTs will be airdropped directly to the winners’ wallets, while Starter Pack rewards can be claimed after the event.

Token Takeover Across Arc8

Web3 gamers can also earn up to US$2,000 in IXT tokens by playing any of Arc8’s 13 core games during the Token Takeover Across Arc8 event.

The IXT-sponsored tournaments will run in all regular games in Arc8 and players can gain entry by paying a small fee in Arc8’s native GMEE token.
