A new addition to the TRON Arcade ecosystem announced today by the popular blockchain game studio MixMarvel.
The newest TRON game is called HyperSnakes, similar to the famous Slither.io which became extremely popular, MixMarvel and TRON Arcade aims to introduce crypto gaming to the masses.
HyperSnakes will adopt a free-to-play model (and pay-to-play rooms) where players will be able to compete with each other and earn rewards in crypto for their time spent in game or stake TRX for the prize pools.
The HyperSnakes beta will launch on March 1st, beta testers will get rewarded for their feedback!
The main launch will occur somewhere in March.
What is HyperSnakes?
While the gameplay will sound easy, it won’t be that much! Players control a snake which can grow longer by collecting dots or “eating” other snakes in the arena. Sounds simple but definitely, it will need some skills!
To make the game more interesting, MixMarvel is going to add a number of features such as shields, speed boosts, EMPs and more. These power-ups can greatly help a player to survive in the arena and claim cryptocurrency airdrops located on the map.
