Web3 MMORPG Cambria has achieved a significant milestone in its second season, with players collectively funding a $1 million prize pool within just seven days of launch.
This rapid accumulation highlights strong player engagement in the game’s unique economic model, where 75% of all generated revenue flows back to its players.
Since Season 2 began, over 8,800 players have purchased Royal Charters with daily active users remaining steady between 4,000-5,000.
How do players earn from the prize pool?
The $1 million prize pool operates on a transparent reward structure where players earn shares primarily through Coins and Royal Favor.
These are obtained by collecting loot in PvPvE zones and exchanging it at designated locations. A total of 21,877 Royal Charters have been minted to date at a cost of 0.02 $ETH each (~53 $RON), serving as both access tokens and tools for energy regeneration.
Whilst non-charter holders can participate, their earning potential remains limited compared to those who have minted Royal Charters. The game also allocates portions of the pool for community contributions, including bug reports, content creation, and successful player referrals.
What’s new in Cambria Season 2: The Paymasters?
This season introduces the Paymasters system, allowing players to deposit their Royal Charters into a Syndicate Vault in exchange for Syndicate Shares.
These shares entitle holders to passive earnings derived from taxes on new charter purchases and loot exchanges, creating a secondary income stream. Another key addition is the Royal Favor leaderboard, which rewards top performers with Trinkets (special in-game items) and entries into Land NFT raffles.
These updates were designed to increase player retention by offering multiple engagement avenues, from active looting to more passive investment strategies.
