Gala Games’ web3 “co-op, roguelite, third-person shooter” Superior Early Access is now live. Drifter Entertainment is a game development studio. The game sees players hunting down mutated superheroes and taking powers from defeated enemies to grow stronger. The game is described as a mission-based, cooperative, PvE experience with an evolving storyline.
Missions are dynamically generated to provide varying experiences. As players progress through the missions, they have chances to upgrade their weapons and acquire various powers to help them in their quest. The farther they get, the more powerful they become, but at the same time, the challenges increase in difficulty.
Superior features Weapon and Character NFTs as in-game assets. The game offers free Characters to play, though players who use an NFT character apparently level up more quickly. Characters’ level caps are based on their rarity, though Characters can raise that cap via an ‘Infamy system’. Character NFTs keep their Infamy score, even when changing hands.
It is important to note that the Steam edition of Superior does not support NFTs or any other blockchain technology. However, Steam players are permitted to play via co-op with players that are on other platforms, as Superior is currently a full cross-play title. This means that there will not be any direct ownership capabilities within Steam, unless a player chooses to move their account over to the Gala Games launcher (or potentially others) down the road.
