Ubisoft to shut down NFT game Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles
Key points
- Ubisoft is shutting down Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles.
- Servers for the NFT strategy game will close on October 30.
- The game launched in 2024, years after the NFT craze peaked.
- Ubisoft is directing players to Might and Magic Fates with rewards.
Game Shutdown Announced
Ubisoft has announced the shutdown of its Web3-enabled NFT strategy game, Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles. The game's servers are scheduled to officially cease operation on October 30. This decision follows an earlier announcement in May where Ubisoft stated its intention to transition the game away from its core Web3 functionality.
NFT Integration and Timing
A primary feature of Champions Tactics was the ability to mint and trade battle units on a blockchain marketplace using digital currency. The game's launch in 2024 occurred several years after the peak of the NFT craze, which largely fizzled out by 2022. This timing has been noted as unusual given the market trends for NFTs.
Player Transition Efforts
Despite the shutdown, Ubisoft is attempting to retain its player base by offering in-game rewards to current Champions Tactics players who transition to another title, Might and Magic Fates. This alternative game is a deckbuilder where players can buy and sell cards using either cash or cryptocurrency.
