Our highly anticipated Runiverse Demo launch was met with spectacular engagement throughout the metaverses. Already, gamers from across the net are enjoying our cross-metaverse play-to-earn (P2E) gaming platform that’s based on a unique twist.

In Runiverse, the gameplay is tied to the performance of the crypto market. Players wager real crypto assets on one-to-one races where the performance of the runner depends on the live price action of a selected cryptocurrency. Players whose cryptocurrency grows the most during that time frame will see their runners sprint ahead of the competition, winning them the race along with their opponent’s wagered tokens.

Cryptocurrency market performance is determined by Quickswap and Binance, industry leaders in accurate cryptocurrency data reporting. By tying gameplay to cryptocurrency price action, Runiverse has turned “playing the market” into playing a real game. As a result, Runiverse is providing a more engaging and entertaining platform to traders, quickly becoming a favourite amongst the crypto and gaming industry.

NFTs

Like most blockchain games, Runiverse incorporates NFTs to empower players through transparency and ownership. There are three types of NFTs in Runiverse: Skin NFTs, Tracks, and Winning Emotes.

Skin NFTs are player runners that represent different cryptocurrencies during races. Styled with the branding of the tokens that they represent, each features a unique outfit and colour scheme. For example, the Uniswap runner is pink and wears a unicorn hat. As Runiverse’s most prized NFTs, there are only 5 Skin NFTs for each token, and their owners make 1% of all rewards regardless of who wins a race.

Much like different “maps” or “stages” in non-crypto games, tracks are used for player-vs-player competitions. Track ownership comes with a unique benefit. Similarly to NFT skin owners, Track owners receive a 3% cut of all prizes. This means that Skin NFTs and Tracks present players with a real passive income opportunity, without the risk involved in competitive races. Runiverse will launch with 12 Tracks in total, split into different themes: 4x “Stadium” tracks, 5x “Westfield” tracks, and 3x “Warzone” tracks.

Last but not least, Winning Emotes are unique expressions that Runners make in the face of their opponents when they win a race. For players interested in participating, Winning Emotes are launching on May 18th, followed by Tracks in Q3 and Runners in Q4 of 2022. Runners can already be browsed on OpenSea, while Winning Emotes and Tracks can be discovered closer to their release.

Features

As mentioned, Runiverse is a cross-metaverse game, meaning that players can challenge each other across multiple metaverses. Runiverse will feature tracks in The Sandbox, Decentraland, Star Atlas, and of course, Runiverse itself. With cryptocurrency experts predicting the future of the metaverse to be inter-connected (i.e., many metaverses interacting with each other), Runiverse is prepared for the future of gaming and has placed itself ahead of the curve.

In addition to being cross-metaverse, Runiverse features leaderboards. Each win earns players one leaderboard point — the more points that players rack up, the higher they appear on the board. The Top 500 players will be granted exclusive access to additional benefits that will be announced further into Runiverse’s development.

Last but not least, Runiverse is part of the Elite Mobile ($ELITE) ecosystem, a unique cryptocurrency system that caters to creators, fans, and investors in the mobile industry. For creators, $ELITE represents an opportunity for personalities to raise capital and interact with their fanbase in a completely new fashion. On the flip side, users are granted an easy-to-use platform for realizing their dreams as a fan by browsing through exclusive content or interacting with their idols. To investors, $ELITE offers a new asset class and an ecosystem that benefits a diverse audience.

How To Play

Anyone can easily play the Runiverse Demo online. Players can simply go to the Runiverse website, launch the demo, and connect their Metamask browser wallet. For players who do not yet have a Metamask browser wallet, it can quickly be installed by following the instructions provided by the official Metamask website.
