In just a few hours we are releasing the next version of the closed beta Cosmic Champs mobile game, with bug fixes and feature updates.

To help spread the excitement, and grow our community, we’re also releasing a totally updated Cosmic Quests board on Crew 3.

Watch out for the addition of a new Season 1 champ to your decks — Tertius X! To play with the new Champ, go to the ‘Deck’ screen and tap the arrow pointing right next to the text “Beta Release Deck” and it will give you a new deck called “Tertius X Deck.” Switching between these two decks will allow you to play with either Tertius III or Tertius X.

For a full rundown of everything included in the new update, view the recent Development Update blog from the team.

Cosmic Quests

Crew3 enables Web3 communities to onboard new members that contribute to our community growth with an automatic onboarding flow.

The first month of Crew3 was very successful, and we saw growth across our communities and social channels. More than 6000 quests were completed by our community!

We’re starting a whole fresh sprint, from Friday 18 Nov to Mon 28 Nov, so that anyone new can join and be competitive. https://cosmicchamps.crew3.xyz/questboard

Beta be Ready

Now it’s time to turn our attention to gameplay! From tomorrow, we’ll be adding a heap of tasks to reward players. Such as XP rewards for:

  • Sharing images and videos of gameplay on socials
  • Winning battles
  • And just playing the game!

P2E isn’t integrated into this version of the game, yet, so we want to make sure our community who is helping so much is recognised and rewarded.

The new category of closed beta game quests will be under the tag “Spotlight.”

The Rewards — $1000+ in Prizes!

Week 1 —Friday Nov 18– Monday Nov 28

The closed beta launch starts off with a bang! Week 1, the rewards are big! Now, normally you think a week has 7 days, don’t you? Well, beta launch week is special — week 1 of Cosmic Quests goes for ten days. It was so big, we couldn’t fit it into just one week.

What is COSG?

Our governance token, Cosmic Gold (COSG), rules the Cosmic Champs metaverse. COSG will be used to earn staking rewards, reward players for using the game (P2E), and buying NFTs. When we transition to a DAO, holders of COSG will steer the ship as they will vote on changes to the game. It will also be used to fuel our creator economy which will reward the community for helping build our metaverse.

The ASA ID for the COSG token is 1065092715. To receive COSG rewards, you’ll need to opt into COSG with your Algorand wallet.

ABOUT COSMIC CHAMPS

Cosmic Champs is a play to earn, tower rush, real time strategy game developed by gaming studio, Mad Shapes. It aims to remove many of the existing barriers of entry for typical P2E games. This means it’s mobile first and no wallet, tokens, or NFTs are required to play. These innovations position Cosmic Champs to become the benchmark for crypto games in GameFi. The game will be available for Android and iOS devices late in 2022. Cosmic Champs NFTs are the gold standard in 3D game ready NFTs on the Algorand blockchain — a carbon negative blockchain built to be sustainable and secure, and the home to the FIFA+ Collect World Cup 2022 series of digital collectibles. The native governance token Cosmic Gold (COSG) is available on all major Algorand exchanges. Cosmic Champs graduated from the Algorand Foundation and Draper University Blockchain Accelerator Program in 2021 and conducted an over subscribed private sale led by Borderless Capital.
