Survival Just Got Real in the Next Mirandus Playtest

Survival Just Got Real in the Next Mirandus Playtest

The world of Mirandus is evolving — and danger now comes with a new layer of strategy.

On April 9, a major playtest update is arriving, bringing deeper survival mechanics, more immersive visuals, and new systems that will test your planning skills as much as your combat reflexes.

⚔️ Weapons and Armor Now Have Durability

Every adventure now comes at a cost. With this update, weapons and armor are no longer eternal. Each successful attack with a weapon, and each defensive hit absorbed by your armor, will slowly wear down your gear.

Run in blind, and you may find your blade broken mid-battle. Take too many hits without repairing, and your armor could shatter at the worst moment.

And beware: death is now more punishing, with additional durability loss applied to your gear each time you fall in battle.

🧪 How Repairs Work

To repair your equipment, you’ll need to craft a special powder by combining a unique loot drop with Materium, the magical substance that fuels the world of Mirandus. This turns every encounter into a meaningful decision — whether to push deeper into danger or return to safety and restore your strength.

🔶 Important Information Regarding Progress

Mirandus is a game under heavy development, and player progress will need to be reset from time to time. This means you may lose all your inventory items, even equipped or repaired ones, as well as any Test Materium received. Please keep this in mind while you enjoy the game.


🔧 Full Patch Notes – April 9 Update

Art

  • Male Halfling model updated, including new armor tiers.
  • Store buildings now feature interior decorations.

Design

  • Durability values added to all weapons and armor.
  • Reviving without paying MTRM now restores 75% health (up from 50%).
  • Loot window extended:
    • Time to loot NPCs increased to 3 minutes.
    • Loot becomes public after 1.5 minutes.

Engineering

  • Token burn logic implemented (currently applies to $GALA$).
  • Gear Durability and Repair system introduced.

Known Issues

  • Some first-person animations are misaligned, particularly those involving bows.
  • Existing torches had to be wiped from player inventories

🛡️ Choose Your Battles Wisely

This update brings a new rhythm to gameplay — one where preparation, awareness, and resource management are just as important as skill in combat.

Get ready for a more immersive, dangerous, and rewarding version of Mirandus. The playtest begins April 9 — and the risks have never been higher.

See you in the world.

CFTC Shifts Gears: What It Means for Web3 Builders

CFTC Shifts Gears: What It Means for Web3 Builders

At Gala Games, we’ve always believed that innovation thrives when built on a foundation of transparency, fairness, and mutual respect between builders and regulators. That’s why we are thrilled to see real movement in Washington, D.C. that signals a significant and long-awaited shift in how digital assets, and the innovators behind them are treated in the U.S.

On April 8, 2025, CFTC Acting Chairman Caroline Pham announced a powerful directive aligning the agency with a new Justice Department policy that officially ends the practice of “regulation by prosecution” for the digital asset industry. This is a monumental step for everyone building in the Web3 space, and for Gala, it’s a major green light to continue innovating without the constant fog of uncertain enforcement actions.

Why This Matters to Gala

We’re building a decentralized entertainment ecosystem of games, music, film, and beyond, where digital ownership is real, and where creators and players alike are empowered by blockchain technology. But over the past few years, the regulatory environment in the U.S. has often been clouded by unpredictable enforcement actions that made it difficult for legitimate builders to navigate the rules.

Real Impacts for the Web3 Ecosystem

This shift does more than just relieve pressure, it sets the stage for a stronger U.S. leadership role in blockchain development. It means:

  • Fewer frivolous enforcement actions against good-faith innovators.
  • Greater clarity on what rules apply and when.
  • More opportunity for collaboration between regulators and builders.
  • A better pathway to self-report and resolve minor issues without facing existential threats.

Pham’s directive specifically deprioritizes enforcement on technical violations, like failing to register under outdated frameworks unless there is willful misconduct. That alone could save countless startups from being stifled or bankrupted for trying to innovate in good faith.

For Gala and Our Community

For us, this moment is not just about less regulatory friction. It’s about being able to double down on our mission to onboard millions to Web3 through games, music, and immersive entertainment and knowing that regulators are starting to recognize the difference between fraud and innovation.

It also validates what we’ve always stood for: building transparently, engaging with policymakers, and putting users first. The new approach encourages exactly that kind of behavior.

What’s Next

While challenges still exist, this policy shift gives us and all serious projects in the Web3 space more confidence to grow, experiment, and deliver. It also strengthens our resolve to help shape the next wave of internet culture and digital ownership.

As this new regulatory era unfolds, Gala will remain at the forefront not just as creators, but as collaborators helping define what responsible innovation looks like in Web3.

Here’s to clarity, progress, and a future where visionaries can build without fear.
