Ubisoft Quartz revealed

Video game companies have been showing a keen interest in NFT technology and blockchain-based games for some time. Earlier this year, companies like Square Enix, Ubisoft, and Electronic Arts hinted at a move to NFT. Ubisoft has now announced the launch of a platform that will leverage the Tezos (XTZ) blockchain to use NFT technology.

“Introducing Ubisoft Quartz,” the gaming company tweeted on Tuesday. “We’re bringing the first energy-efficient NFTs playable in a AAA game to Ghost Recon: Breakpoint. Try it in the beta from December 9 with three free cosmetic drops.”

Ubisoft is well known for its franchise game titles like “Assassin’s Creed”, “Prince of Persia”, the Tom Clancy game franchise, “Rabbids Invasion” and “Just Dance”. Ubisoft Quartz’s website notes that the platform is a “place where you can acquire Digits, Ubisoft’s first NFTs (non-fungible tokens), playable in an HD game, and count[ing] on energy efficient technology. The company adds:

Digits will allow you to complete your missions in style.

The web portal features a few items that could help a player compete in style with NFT items like an M4A1 Tactical Rifle, Upgraded Helmet, and Upgraded Pants, all of which are in limited edition. Meanwhile, after Ubisoft revealed the NFT platform and revealed that the company is working with Tezos, the value of crypto asset XTZ has skyrocketed in the past 24 hours. At the time of writing on Wednesday, December 8, XTZ is up 26% in value in USD.

The three NFT drops for Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon game are free, the web portal details, but only Ghost Recon Breakpoint Ubisoft Connect PC players can acquire and play with Digits. “Every single Digit features a serial number,” Ubisoft says. “This serial number is displayed on the collectible and on the in-game item. Each Digit will also be tied to the player names of all its previous and current owners.” Ubisoft’s NFT platform description also notes:

The combination of a serial number and ownership history makes each Digit truly unique.
