Hey, gamers! you like Rayman? you like Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon? Do you want them to make a new one Rayman or Blood Dragon game? Well, you’ve got your wish (sort of) if you’re willing to give your wish a lot of leeway and a little money. Journalist Stephen Totilo The newsletter reports that Ubisoft is secretly releasing a new Web3 game with NFTs featuring Captain Laserhawk from Blood Dragon animated series spinoff of Netflix and Rayman (which has not shown a proper new adventure in years).

it looks like a generic top down shooter set in a bright neon futureworld of Blood Dragon universe. You will compete in an arena-style bloodsport where getting the most kills will give you the victory. Totilo described it as “the most basic top-down shooter imaginable.”

You need a Niji Warrior NFT to play the game. Totilo reported that Ubisoft offered 10,000 of the special NFTs for free with some transaction fees on Web3 earlier this month. Niji Warrior NFT serves as a kind of ID card, and if you miss your chance to get one for free, you will have to pay at least $14.38 (0.0022 in ethereum, according to ) just to get into the game.

Then to add digital insult to injury, Rayman served as the herald of the gladiatorial deathmatches of the future. Rayman appears in the game but you don’t even get to play as a smart, cartoon-ish hero in the game. He is forced to become Marv Albert in this bloodthirsty cryptocash grab.

There is only one strong reason to play the game: You don’t have to work hard to get to the leaderboard. Totilo said that he entered the top 10 of the global leaderboard — a leaderboard that shows less than 100 players. I wouldn’t call the game a runaway hit just yet.

This isn’t the first time Ubisoft has quietly pushed a Web3-based game to cash in on the NFT craze that faded from popularity years ago. Ubisoft Quartz releases tactical RPG in October where players can buy NFT for $6,300.
