Development Updates

4.0.0 client update deployed!

We recently deployed the 4.0.0 version of the client. This update included deploying to production the initial stage of tokenization, as well as core features of the Uniq V1 update:

  • Game library updates related to tokenization
  • Uniq tradability parameter
  • Uniq transferability parameter
  • Minimum resale in USD parameter

Tokenization update!

The first phase of tokenization is officially live and players are now able to acquire a free game on Ultra Games as a Uniq. However, during this phase, the tokenized game will not be tradable. This step aims to test the ownership of game Uniqs before we go ahead with tokenizing all games on Ultra.

This marks a significant leap forward in our pursuit of granting players the ability to make the most out of the games they have, fostering second-hand game trading, and offering an array of additional perks tied to game ownership.
