Battle Racers’ Season One NFT Sale on Matic Network Starts Today

Battle Racers, a new arcade-style racing game in the Decentraland metaverse, is officially launching its season one $NFT sale on Matic Network (MATIC) today.

According to the press release shared with us, the sale will feature crates with season one-exclusive car parts and limited edition items and run from 9:00 am (EST) on December 3 to December 20, or until all crates have been sold.

“We’re pleased to launch the Season 1 sale of Battle Racers to the blockchain game community,” Altitude Games CEO Gabby Dizon said. “Along with our partners such as Matic Network, Decentraland, CryptoKitties, DappRadar, and My Crypto Heroes, we’re one step closer to bringing blockchain gaming to the mainstream gamer community.”

There are four types of crates being sold, each containing up to four random parts belonging to cars that are available exclusively in season one. These items will never be minted again by Battle Racers and will only be available in secondary markets, such as OpenSea.

The season one sale also includes the “Guerilla Cyber,” a newly announced in-game vehicle that strongly resembles the Tesla Cybertruck, the company’s first electric pickup truck.

Dizon added in a recent tweet that he chose to conduct the sale on Matic Network as it allows the NFTs to be playable by Battle Racers’ users without paying gas costs. This is ultimately part of the team’s effort to lower the barriers to adoption.

With the unpleasant PSA out of the way, here's for some good news: @maticnetwork is proudly sponsoring a whopping 15% early bird discount during the first 48 hours of the sale! We'll be having another AMA hours before the launch tomorrow, so please stay tuned.

A playable version of Battle Racers launched on November 25 and gamers will be able to use the parts they receive in the season one sale and in previous iterations to build their own custom racers.
