Following another fantastic AMA, it’s time to review everything and ensure you don’t miss any important information. We’ll tell you everything, from the Arkhante Event to the General Availability concept and of course the CTA Marketplace!

Arkhante Event

After much anticipation, the Arkhante Event has begun and players will soon be able to use their Event Coins in the game. Yes, the shop will open at 8 PM CET on the 16 of March.

The Neo Arkhante Chest and five additional Exclusive Cards will go live on March 22 at 5 PM .

While the Insignia Pass is a new feature in the game that needs to be polished, we have had to make a few adjustments, but we are well on our way to having something that is effective. The last level will offer you 500 Event Coins, and previous number in the shop table were including placeholders, it has been updated to reflect what is implemented in-game.

You can read more about the Event in our Medium article dedicated to it: https://medium.com/cross-the-ages/arkhante-event-76b9ffce3956

Marketplace

Another big news, the launch of our own Marketplace!

Soon, from the CTA Account app, you will be able to trade your assets through a homemade marketplace where you can sort and filter the collection thanks to a lot of criteria.
Keep in mind that we have a lot of improvements planned but we wanted to give you a first version as soon as possible.

Regarding the fees, on our marketplace, we will offer the following fees for buying and selling:

1% for anonymous users
0.5% for everyone that is using a wallet linked to CTA account (Magic Link or Cold wallet)
0.25% if the transaction is made via a wallet attached to a CTA account containing at least 50 CTA tokens
0% if the transaction is made via a wallet containing or attached to a CTA account containing a mint pass (it doesn’t matter which one).

General Availability

As a result of the remarks made on Telegram and Discord the past few weeks, we believe it is important to provide you with the following information.

We’d like to remind you that the game’s General Availability date is March 29; you won’t need a Premium Pack or the Road To GA to play after that day.

But, what does General Availability mean?

General Availability is almost the last step in the life cycle of a software release. It means that the product is available to anyone to play with.
In our case, it means that anyone can experiment and we can improve it for the masses.

Although a great part of the success of a game is tied to its marketing campaign, we will start once we feel like it is ready for this last step also known as “Live Release”, but definitely not the case at the moment during the “General Availability” period.
