Did Someone Say Easter Egg Hunt?

In a bit of community fun, Ascenders released a limited-time Easter version of the Combat Challenge Minigame.

The Minigame was transformed with rainbows, colourful environments, and all characters wearing bunny ears.

Fifty players who found and collected all 20 hidden Easter eggs within a single run and created engaging content from the special event were rewarded with up to 6,000 $AGC each.

Lights, Camera, Action!

The Ascenders community channelled their inner Artscenders in our Action Screenshot Challenge.

The goal was to create the most creative, captivating, in-game screenshot of the original Combat Challenge mode. Sixty-four exceptional images were selected by the Ascenders team and matched up against one another in a single-elimination bracket tournament. A community vote purely decided the results of each stage on the Ascenders Discord.

We had a phenomenal turnout of hundreds of community members voting on each match-up, with the Final Vote coming down to a mere 23 vote difference.

All participants were rewarded with tokens, with the champion receiving 8,000 $AGC.

Ascenders X GuildFi Survival Challenge

We are happy to announce that our partners at GuildFi are hosting the upcoming Ascenders Minigame challenge. The Survival Challenge will put players in control of the smaller robot, a foe now turned friend, who we used to battle against in the original game mode.

In a twist on the Combat Challenge, this time around, players will have to test their combat skills by surviving waves of attacks from intimidating human characters.

Claim your spot on the Leaderboard by surviving the longest! Head on over to @GuildFiGlobal for details on how to join the Ascenders x GuildFi Survival Challenge.
