Backed by Animoca Brands, and with a PlayStation 5 release coming next year, all 5,000 of these free-to-mint NFTs were claimed during the first-come-first-served phase of their launch. As of writing, the floor pricecurrently sits at 0.008 ETH.
Godspawn NFT holders are set to receive exclusive in-game utilities, early access to features and events, and an allocation of the soon-to-launch $MNRY token, set to arrive later in 2024.
What is Moonray?
Moonray is a web3 action-combat title, available on PC via the Epic Games Store.
Built on Ethereum, the game debuted to select players in March 2022, before a wider launch on the Epic Games Store in July 2024. Players enjoy an array of fast-paced PVP modes, including 4v4 arena and battle royale, with campaigns that both engage and reward the playerbase.
Developed by Moonray Studios, on top of the core game, the studio has also created a duo of graphic novels; 2023’s “Mother’s Skin”, and 2024’s “Echoes of Ascension”, exploring the lore of Moonray. The series is written by comic book artist Brandon Graham, and is available in 4,000 comic book stores in North America and the UK, including Midtown Comics and Barnes & Noble.
To boost game development, streaming content and user acquisition, Moonray Studios has partnered with Digital Void, Reel FX, and gaming guilds such as YGG, Snack Club, and Unix respectively.
Why should I hold a Godspawn NFT?
“The Godspawn PFP is an integral part of our ecosystem and will be a way for us to more intimately interact with the broader PFP community,” said Hans Andersson, CBO and co-founder of Moonray Studios. “It provides access to exclusive in-game items, early access to playtests, and questing events. We have some interesting partnerships in the works for those events that we believe the community will truly appreciate.
“While we focus on consoles as an important platform to reach broader audiences, we want to continue rewarding our web3 community as they now get a chance to grab the Godspawn NFTs to really elevate their Moonray experience.”
The successful mint for these Godspawn NFTs is another example of a recent surge in the NFT markets, with $91 million USD in total transactions over the past 7 days. Popular cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Solana and Ethereum have been recovering, with NFTs following suit – particularly with increasing interest in new collections.
Bullish on web3. Competitive soul.
