GoLive Games has launched Cricket Stars – the nation’s first NFT based cricket strategy esports powered by Tezos.
Cricket Stars is the only NFT-based multi-player game in the market that does not have a Pay-to Play or Play-to Earn model. This allows players of any age to experience cricket in an entirely virtual format. This game is more than an interface to play India’s most popular game. It also provides a platform for fans of cricket to showcase their knowledge and passion in this latest esports.
Cricket Stars has a unique idea. Each game offers players a choice of six different batting cards and six different bowling cards. The player must use their knowledge of the sport to select the best batting cards from the many options available to get runs off their opponent’s deliveries. They also need to choose the perfect bowling skills to eliminate their opponent. Cricket Stars offers users the chance to win cricket bats, among other prizes.
Ravi Kiran said that the game Cricket Stars was a unique blend of Esports, NFTs and cricket. “We are incredibly proud to have created this game, and we think it will resonate with gamers across the country.” Cricket is a popular sport that has a worldwide following. The Esports market in India is also growing rapidly. We saw an opportunity to merge the two for a unique and rewarding gaming environment for cricket enthusiasts all over the Esports globe. We believe the integration of NFTs into our game is the future of the gaming industry as it gives players a sense of ownership and value within the virtual world. We are confident that by leveraging the nation’s passion for cricket and gaming, the game will be a breakthrough success in the community. It will also become an important part of the gaming ecosystem in the country .”
This game is not only the first NFT-based game on the Esports scene, but it also sets itself apart as the only one that does not require players to purchase NFTs upfront. The game allows players to acquire batting cards and bowling cards as NFTs in different rarities – Epic, Rare and Legendary. They can then use their unique features in thrilling matches, campaigns or Esports competitions.
The NFT market is powered by Tezos Blockchain. Users with Tezos wallets can easily trade, buy and sell cards in the game store without needing any cryptocurrency.
We are excited to partner with GoLive Games in order to launch Cricket Stars – an exciting cricket strategy with digital collectibles. This partnership is a major step forward in the gaming industry, and the Tezos Blockchain. Cricket fans can enjoy a game that will test their cricket knowledge while also collecting and trading NFTs with a cricket theme that adds a new level to gameplay. This partnership will be a cornerstone in our commitment to making great games better on Tezos.
