Bringing The Action

Our partners at The Harvest Game are creating waves throughout the GameFi space with powerful, new updates to their groundbreaking MOBA Shooter. With their public beta release right around the corner, the gameplay, tournaments, and prizes we’ve already seen from The Harvest truly capture the essence of action-packed gaming.

We first want to congratulate The Harvest team, led by Luiz Piccini, on a massive milestone — reaching 20k members on Discord before releasing their public beta! This is an incredible accomplishment and no easy feat in this space.

The Harvest’s active community has also contributed to its powerfully swift ascent. By sharing content, volunteering to help with matchmaking, facilitating chat activities, sending in memes, and inviting friends to join their Discord, this intrepid group has shown true commitment to The Harvest’s current and future success.

Polemos x The Harvest

Members of the Polemos community have already been leading matches in exclusive play sessions of the private beta. Every team victory rewards players with a utility NFT, up to one per day. With the added incentive of additional prizes for sharing their win on Twitter. Polemians have been stacking up both wins and NFTs by dominating the opposition and making Polemos a name to be reckoned with in The Harvest community.

This is not a simple task, as the heroic players in their community are genuinely skilled at gameplay. They battle hard and have the wins to prove it! The Harvest is undoubtedly raising the bar for competitive play, making for both challenging and entertaining matches.

Success of Solana and Binance NFT Collections

The Harvest sold out of legendary boxes in less than five minutes during their first Solana-based mint in July, and have outdone themselves in their August Binance NFT sale by bringing in almost $600K USD.

The Harvest has established significant value behind its NFTs with its successful game and engaged community.

Using BAB Tokens

The Harvest is the first GameFi project to use the Binance Soulbound tokens, which are not currently required for playing. Instead, users that subscribe will be rewarded by holding this unique token in their wallet.

Soulbound tokens were devised by Vitalik Buterin and his co-authors in May 2022 within a paper that coined the concept of a Decentralized Society (DeSoc) and SoulBound Token (SBT). These are non-financialized, non-transferrable, and unique asset tokens that are pinned to your wallet that can only be canceled or revoked by their holder.

Soulbound tokens can be utilized for various purposes including identification, DOA membership, Airdrops to specific individuals, and even uncollateralized lending.

The BAB (Binance Account Bound) token can only be minted by users who have successfully accomplished KYC and will be used as an identity token. This means that holders can only assign one token to one wallet on the specific chain.

Public Beta Release Is Coming!

With an estimated release date of October 2022, the public beta will be here in no time! Only a few updates stand between players and the game’s release.

In Progress Updates

Though not shown on the roadmap, a 5th Hero, “The Vanguard,” has been announced on The Harvest’s website. Not much is known about this mysterious addition other than its appearance and name, RAVEN. Proposed by Polemos’ own Tacopolice, the name RAVEN won by community vote on The Harvest’s Discord, further displaying how the developers are committed to their players.

The roadmap also describes a “ring system” similar to the battle royale experience seen with games like Apex Legends and Fortnite. In essence, these rings shrink the area of engagement throughout the game, bringing players together in a concentrated arena for the match’s epic finale.

Along with the ring system, non-NFT cards (classic in-game assets) will be implemented to check functionality and balance. NFT cards will not be revealed until balancing is complete, but we’ve already seen stunning artwork that will add value to any holder’s collection.

Once the Mystery and Legendary Boxes are opened, no changes will be made to the value of the NFT cards within. Instead, if a meta of cards is later found to be overpowered, all will be restored by introducing a new set of balancing NFT cards to the game.

Card leveling is a vital mechanic within The Harvest. The in-game currency EoL (Essence of Life) will be burnt to level up to level 10, after which the governance token will be used. Burning a duplicate card will upgrade a mastery point to the card, unlocking a Hero attribute slot which allows a boost to be attached to that card.

The Battle for Essence Begins

With its gripping gameplay, competitive tournaments, and valuable prizes, The Harvest has already proven itself an exciting addition to the GameFi platform. Polemos is proud to partner with The Harvest and eagerly awaits the opportunity to experience its powerful new updates first-hand.
