In Brief:
- Etherscape (official site) has switched its streaming rewards program back on and thrown the entry tier open to every player, with no whitelist needed.
- Rewards are paid out on Enjin blockchain and financed by the game’s Community Wallet, which collects 25% of in-game revenue and distributes it on a weekly basis.
- The restart arrives on the back of version 0.30, the update that built deep Twitch integration into the game.
Etherscape has switched its streaming rewards program back on and dropped the barrier to entry, leaving the Starter level open to every player.
“Streaming rewards are back in Etherscape!” the game said in a post. “Every Etherborn can start at the Starter level—no whitelist required. Build your community, welcome new players, and earn rewards on @Enjin blockchain.”
Play. Stream. Get rewarded for both.

Rewards pay out on Enjin blockchain. For the program’s terms, Etherscape directed streamers to the stream partners section of its whitepaper, and its post left the tiers sitting above Starter undescribed.
How the rewards get funded
No token of its own has ever been issued by Etherscape. The game runs on ENJ, while Enjinite, the currency used in game, is pegged to the token at 100 to 1. Gems picked up in game can be converted back into ENJ.
The source of player rewards is the Community Wallet, which takes a 25% cut of every bit of in-game revenue and pays out weekly according to in-game engagement. According to Enjin, the wallet has held upwards of 66,000 ENJ and has been sending more than 2,000 ENJ to players every week. In a later Etherscape update covering community wallet staking, the balance was given as 114,000 ENJ, 85,000 of it staked.
That same pot is topped up by staking. Etherscape routes 100% of its nomination pool rewards into the Community Wallet and 100% of its validator rewards into the Royalty Wallet, which then hands 25% over to the community side. Commission on its validators stays at the standard 5%, with the remainder going to nominators.
Built on the Twitch update
Deep Twitch streaming integration arrived with version 0.30, alongside Resonant Shards progression and broader Heroic Marks bonuses. Water Essence (0.29), the release that preceded it, delivered the Coral Depths, the Tidal Drakonid faction, a Hydro Dragon boss, a Multiverse Water Event and tidal weapon skins.
Broadcasting images, video, music and sound effects from the game is something Etherscape’s streaming policy already permits players to do. Monetized streams fall under that authorization as well.
Other ways players earn
The highest Arena level reached is tracked by a weekly leaderboard. Gem rewards go to the top five players, funded each week at 1% of the Community Wallet’s total value, and those gems convert straight into ENJ.
There’s money in governance too. ENJ arrives as Unbound Enjinite for players who cast votes, and Imperial Sovereign holdings determine how much each vote weighs.
Then there’s Kepithor Rewards, the Android app tied to the game, which pays out for watching ads and working through content. Take the withdrawal as Bound Gems and a 5% bonus is applied. Referring the Etherscape account tacks on a further 5%, bringing the total to 10%.
Background
A shared-world online action RPG, Etherscape is free on the Epic Games Store and remains in alpha. Its players go by Etherborn.
The game is among the first-season titles in Essence of the Elements, the year-long Multiverse quest that Enjin kicked off in February 2026 together with ENJ Excavators, Into the Multiverse, Lost Relics (official site) and The Six Dragons (official site).
Enjin summed the program up for its own audience in three words: “Play. Stream. Get rewarded for both.”
