Captain Laserhawk NFTs have officially launched as part of a collaboration between Magic Eden, Ubisoft, and the Arbitrum Foundation. This collection, comprising 10,000 unique NFTs, draws inspiration from the popular Netflix anime series "Captain Laserhawk: The G.A.M.E". With this launch, Arbitrum becomes the latest blockchain supported by Magic Eden, solidifying its position as the largest Ethereum Layer 2.
Owning a Captain Laserhawk NFT not only enhances the gaming experience but also provides holders with access to exclusive rewards, content creation opportunities, and influence over governance decisions. Ubisoft's Web3 Executive Producer, Didier Genevois, stated, "Through the integration of web3, we’re empowering our community to not only play but shape the future of the game. It's about creating a collaborative ecosystem where players’ decisions and creations directly impact the game’s evolution, making the experience truly their own."
Despite the exciting launch, the trading volume for non-Ethereum web3 gaming has seen a significant decline, dropping to $494,000 between September 22 and September 29. This marks a stark contrast to the multi-million dollar weekly volumes recorded earlier this year.
