Enter the Inferno with Ultra

Ultra is building an ecosystem for the entertainment industry to coexist. Our flagship product, Ultra Games, will release as a PC games distribution and gaming platform where players can truly own the games they buy. More generally, the Ultra platform will give players the freedom to watch live streams, interact with content creators, participate in contests and tournaments, and share their love for video games all within a single client.

With this partnership, we confirm our commitment to support web3 gaming companies and their communities by bringing ultra-powerful carbon-neutral blockchain technology to gamers worldwide. Inferno will be included in Ultra Games’ growing library of titles that we’re putting together even before the app is released to the public. Ultra Games will allow players to discover, buy, play, and sell digital games and in-game items as Uniqs — similar to your collection of physical games! Uniqs is the name we’ve given to NFTs on the Ultra ecosystem, which uses the Ultra standard known for having zero gas fees and fast-as-lightning transactions.

“The team of Clarity Games has shown a remarkable record and a consistent effort in developing a great blockchain game with attention to detail and the likes of any AAA game. We’re excited to support this game, bring it to the Ultraverse, and hopefully welcome their NFTs in the Uniq Marketplace.”

Nicolas Gilot, Co-CEO of Ultra

Clarity Games’ team is building an adaptation of Dante Alighieri’s 9 levels of Inferno and working with renowned names such as Emanuel Palalic, who worked as a senior character artist for id Software where he modeled demons for Doom and Doom Eternal; ​​Joshua Rubin as Narrative Advisor and India Weston, Lead Narrative Designer in charge of creating the lore of the game, among other collaborators.

Dante Venafro, CEO, founded Clarity in 2021 together with Alpha Sigma Capital, a fund focused on blockchain projects, and Coin Operated Group, a crypto holding firm. Clarity has secured several deals with renowned blockchain games such as Splinterlands, Gala Games, and Altered State Machine.

“We are excited for the opportunity to partner with Ultra so their users can discover, engage, and transact with Inferno as we explore the possibilities of their developer toolkit and sharing ecosystem.”

Be a Part of the Inferno NFT Collection

Inferno will deliver a gritty, narrative-driven, battle arena experience with skill-based competitive gameplay and a crafting economy of items to use in battle. The team of Clarity Games recently launched their first Inferno NFT collection featuring the Inferno Founders Keys, which will unlock premier features to the Infernoverse for the first players to mint their armor set and become part of one of 12 Elite Guilds.

The Inferno helmet is part of the NFTs collection

The NFT collection of Inferno Founders Keys rewards its loyal community and early adopters with exclusive NFTs. Each NFT represents one of the Zodiac signs and bestows specific combat skills that can be used in-game. Inferno Key holders can unlock an exclusive, early-access Genesis Armor Set, comprising five pieces that will be free to mint plus the cost of gas: Helm, Shoulders, Chestplate, Gauntlets, and Legs.

Additionally, the rarity of each piece will be determined by material finishes: Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Tungsten, Obsidian (Dark), Pearl (Holy). Once a user completes an armor set, it will unlock access to an in-game crafting economy. Players can then earn items and tokens that can be used once the gameplay releases, including a battle arena in the Infernoverse. To mint your Key, go to https://mint.infernoverse.com/.

Ultra is here to disrupt the games industry, one app at a time

Make the most of your games

This second-hand market is designed to fully support the developers involved as Ultra provides them with complete control on how and when their games are distributed on the marketplace. Our GDC has a variety of customisable options for developers, including but not limited to choosing the minimum resale price, the period at which it can be sold in, and geographically where it can be resold.
