The Beacon: Reshaping the New Paradigm of Web3 Games, Coexisting Gameplay and Economic Value

The Beacon: The Beginning of a New Era for Web3 Games?

The emergence of The Beacon game marks a potential new development stage in the Web3 gaming sector. Unlike earlier GameFi projects that were finance-driven, The Beacon places gameplay at the forefront, a shift that is worth noting.

Will the game-centric The Beacon launch GameFi 2.0?

The Beacon is a game that combines elements of fantasy, action, and RPG, while also incorporating Roguelite features to increase the challenge of the game. It supports various modes including single-player PvE, multiplayer cooperative PvE, and social interactions, providing players with a rich gaming experience.

The game design focuses on skill and challenge, with weapons of varying difficulty to meet the needs of different players. At the same time, The Beacon adopts a free-to-play model, lowering the entry barrier. Even without paid characters, players can experience the basic gameplay, obtain non-NFT decorations, and even have a chance to win game tokens and other rewards.

Paying players have more privileges, such as obtaining NFT decorations and participating in leaderboards. Although the genesis characters in the game do not have rarity distinctions, the characters and house decoration NFTs are unique, allowing players to showcase their individuality.

The Beacon also introduces a pet system with scarcity. 4096 Genesis pets as the 0th generation, each with different visual traits and rarity. Pets can breed offspring, pass on traits, adding fun and economic value to the game.

As part of the TreasureDAO ecosystem, The Beacon may potentially interact with other games in the future to create new gameplay. The game plans to use MAGIC and BCN as in-game tokens, but the specific economic mechanism design has not yet been disclosed.

Will the game-centric The Beacon usher in GameFi 2.0?

Currently, The Beacon has completed the launch of a playable prototype, primarily featuring a single-player PvE mode, with over 20,000 user addresses participating. Next, the game will enter the pet generation phase, and an ALPHA version and multiplayer cooperative PvE mode will be launched next year.

Although The Beacon has performed remarkably in the Web3 gaming sector, there is still a long way to go before achieving true success. The Beacon can only be considered to have reached the threshold of success when the game attracts hundreds of thousands or even millions of users, and these users engage because of the game's playability rather than for the purpose of making money.

The emergence of The Beacon has brought new possibilities to Web3 gaming, but whether it can usher in the era of GameFi 2.0 will require time and market testing. Regardless, the development of The Beacon is worth our continued attention.

Will The Beacon centered around gaming usher in GameFi 2.0?

Show me the contract Address first. No matter how good the gameplay is, without an audit it's all talk.
