RPG Battle Action
Champions Arena is a strikingly unique collectible RPG strategy game that focuses on everyone’s favorite single aspect of RPG gameplay: The fighting. Created by a development team who grew up with the most iconic role-playing video games in the world, Champions Arena takes the strategies of team-building and battle further than ever before.
With an ever-growing array of Champion characters to collect, players create battle combinations and go head to head with enemy teams. Through multiple gameplay modes like PvE Campaign, PvP Arena and PvP Tower of Trial, players put their mettle to the test against enemies of all levels. You’ll probably catch some valuable tips and tricks for battle if you tune into today’s stream.
Free-to-Play
Champions Arena is always free to play, and there are tons of reward opportunities in-game, even for free players. Daily login bonuses, unlockable quests and regular promos ensure that there’s always something new and exciting to explore, even beyond the thrill of battle!
Champions can even be minted as player-owned NFTs. When you own an NFT Champion, you can trade as you please on the secondary markets, but (more importantly) you can also get Arena Points for victory, unlocking $GALA rewards for your gameplay!
Mobile First
Created by ONEUNIVERSE, Champions Arena is one of our mobile-first titles, totally free to download and play on your favorite mobile device. But you can also download and play on PC through the Gala Games launcher, so no matter your play style, the Arena is ready for you!
The battle in the arena continues to intensify. Summoners are now experimenting with powerful new combos more after recent Nexus expansions, and a new Battle Pass has arrived… bringing with it a new Champion!
Argos, The Thousand Eyes
Argos was innocent once. He almost remembered it… like trying to grasp at a dream as it disappears into the morning.
He knew that everything had changed when the demons came to Ka-Drax. He knew he had changed, but he didn’t quite recall how he was before. He didn’t care, really. There had been so much pain…he just wanted to make the world feel the terror of all that pain he had felt.
Normal Attack will deal damage to a single enemy, with a match dealing even more damage.
Evil Ray deals damage to two random enemies. A match will inflict more damage, as well as adding stacks of Cursing Gaze to targets.
Gaze of Curse deals damage to all enemies. A match will increase the damage dealt, add stacks of Cursing Gaze to targets and grant Argos Watchful Eye.
Gaze of Fear grants Argos Watchful Eye at the start of the battle, which will cause enemies with too many Cursing Gaze debuffs on them to become petrified. While Argos has Watchful Eye, he will also deal extra damage to petrified targets.
The Arena Calls
The battle has begun, and Argos is already live in the game, inside the 7th Champions Battle Pass! The Battle Pass is the only way to acquire Argos, so make sure and grab one if you want to really keep an eye (or many eyes!) on your opponents.
Good luck on the new Battle Pass, Summoners. See you in the arena!
The battle in Champions Arena keeps growing, and the updates planned for tomorrow’s patch push the glorious battle to new heights!
This update has big changes for how Summoners assemble their parties for battle, as well as how they are rewarded for glorious victory!
Nexus Update
Summoners will now be able to use an NFT Champion that was acquired through The Nexus much more. When you grab a Champion through The Nexus, you’ll now have one hour to use that Champion as much as you’d like before the term expires.
You can only take a Champion through The Nexus once per day by default, but this can be reset once per day by using 150 paid Gems. There is no way to reset this cooldown twice in a day.
When using an NFT Champion through The Nexus, you have up to 15 battles where you’re eligible to win Victory Points from victories. Please note that even lost battles apply to this limit, so make it count every time you step into the arena!
Arena VP Update
All NFT Champions will now have a limit to how many battles per day are eligible for VP as well. This limit is dynamic and will differ from Summoner to Summoner.
For each NFT Champion you own, you’ll get a certain number of battles that qualify for VP each day. Every rarity of NFT adds a different amount to this limit, and all your owned NFTs are added together to determine your daily total.
Common: 3 Battles
Uncommon: 5 Battles
Rare: 8 Battles
Epic: 13 Battles
Legendary: 35 Battles
For example – If a Summoner owns 2 Legendary, 3 Rare and 2 Uncommon NFT Champions, their total would be:
2x Legendaries – 35 x 2 = 70
3x Rare – 8 x 3 = 24
2x Uncommon – 5 x 2 = 10
So this particular Summoner would be eligible for VP in their first 104 (70+24+10) battles each day.
If a Champion is acquired through The Nexus, this would still give this player those additional 15 battles during the day.
Other Reward Improvements
The above VP changes aren’t the only reward change coming in this update!
Summoners can now get free Gems for playing daily in the arena! The amount received will depend on Arena Tier, and the maximum amount that can be received each day will depend on Summoner Level.
Winners will receive three free Gems from each battle in Gold Tier or below, or four free Gems from each battle in Platinum Tier or above.
Losers will receive two free Gems from each battle in Gold Tier or below, or four free Gems from each battle in Platinum Tier or above.
The maximum number of free Gems a player can receive in this way each day depends on their Summoner Level. At Summoner Level 1, the limit is 200. This scales up gradually to a limit of 358 at Summoner Level 80.
Arena Formula Changes
Finally, there are some alterations to how Summoners fight their way up through the ranks in The Arena.
The rating difference between you and your opponent now directly affects how much rating you could potentially gain when you are victorious. Beating a tough opponent will now be rewarded with greater rating gains than someone who is an easy match for you.
The matching formula has also been altered to complement this. You should generally now see Summoners that are closer to your rating more often.
The Battle Continues!
We hope these changes will give each Summoner new ways to strategize, progress and dominate the competition! The opportunity to use Nexus Champions more should let everyone experiment with more new techniques, and now everybody can grab some extra Gem rewards from the arena! Battles within The Arena are constantly evolving, and the best Summoners are the ones who stay one step ahead of their enemies.
Good luck with your new attack plans Summoners… we’ll see you in the arena!
If you haven’t started playing Champions Arena yet, this might be the perfect time to build a collection of NFT Champions and hit the arena!
For one week, we’re adding $1k in $GALA every day to the Champions Arena reward pool, giving players an opportunity to earn even more rewards!
The Infusion Event runs Friday, March 1st through Friday, March 8th.
Lots of Ways to Play
With its strong focus on RPG combat mechanics, Champions Arena is a truly unique experience for players, created by RPG megafans who grew up playing the classics. With well over a hundred individual Champions to collect, each with a set of unique abilities, the combinations are virtually endless.
Collect daily rewards and blast through PvE campaign battles to buff your collections and craft the perfect team of Champions. Then when you’re ready, hit the PvE arena and play with NFT Champions to earn victory points, which translate each day into $GALA in the daily reward distribution.
You can even collect in-game (non-NFT) Champions, then mint your favorites into NFTs by purchasing and spending the corresponding number of Minting Scrolls in-game. Once minted, your Champions are yours to play and earn with, or even to list on a secondary market or bridge to another blockchain.
Exciting Updates
There’s always something new in Champions Arena, from new Champions to exclusive rewards, from limited time promos to increased drop rate events. Anytime is a great time to start building that Champion collection and playing on your favorite mobile device. Browse NFT Champions on the OpenSea secondary market here.
For this issue of Gala’s Latest and Greatest, we’re taking a look at Champions Arena, the epic RPG battler built by the incredible dev team at OneUniverse. This amazing group of accomplished game devs had a special place in their heart for RPG battle mechanics like those found in the old school classic console RPGs with which many of us grew up and sharpened our strategy skills.
They were captivated by the endless strategic combinations of both attacks and defenses, different abilities from different characters, the variety of equipment and weapons, and of course, incredible and timeless character art. Envisioning a new type of game that embraced and elevated the battle mechanics while placing beautiful art on a pedestal, the OneUniverse dev team conceived the idea of Champions Arena.
Battle All Day
What truly sets Champions Arena apart from other mobile RPGs is its strong focus on battle above everything else. In the various types of arenas, players can collect and deploy over a hundred different Champions, with new Champions being added regularly with new updates.
With so many unique Champions, each with its own set of abilities and buffs, the strategy combos are virtually endless, even for the most dedicated players. Upsets and surprises are always possible, and through proper strategy, it’s possible to defeat Champion teams with much higher levels–If you play your cards right.
Grind or Compete
With both PvE and PvP modes, Champions Arena allows players to alternate between many different modes of gameplay to always keep things fresh. There’s always a way to grind in Champions Arena.
Take on other players with your best Champion teamin the PvP “Arena” mode, where gameplay is measured by Seasons, each lasting several weeks. Within each Season, players battle for Leaderboard positions, competing for piles of loot in the form of Gems (used to buy various in-game items and equipment), Arena reward chests (containing super rare equipment and items) and Minting Scrolls, which are used to mint collected in-game Champions as NFTs on GalaChain.
NFT Champions
Because we’re running on GalaChain, players have the unique option to own their Champions as minted tokens (NFTs), allowing them to trade on secondary markets and transfer to other users. Browse the secondary market on OpenSea
Daily $GALA Rewards are also distributed for those who play with NFT Champions that are minted on GalaChain. From a reward pool determined each day by how much was spent on in-game purchases throughout that day, victorious players receive a portion of $GALA equivalent to their victory, compared to other NFT owning players.
Ownership is not required at all to play the game and collect Champions, but owning unlocks the ability to earn rewards in the PvP Arena. Through the use of Minting Scrolls, every Champion has the ability to be minted as an NFT on GalaChain. This allows players to level up their favorites while collecting Scrolls, then mint them as tokens once they’re ready to take on the competition in the Arena for real rewards!
So Many Rewards
With Daily Quest rewards, Idle rewards and more, there are so many ways to convert your time and energy into Champions Arena in-game loot. Additionally, the team is always spinning up new ways to unlock excitement.
Valentine Rewards
Right now, complete tasks in the special Valentine category to accumulate Love Medals to spend on Champions, items, equipment and more in a special in-game store! You have just over two weeks left to grind out these exclusive Valentine Challenges before the opportunity is gone!
From February 7th-February 20th, 500 Love Medals will be given away beach day, so be sure to login daily!
Events and Promos
Be sure to check all the Events so you never miss out on potential rewards. The best way to get as many rewards as possible is to keep up a daily login streak–The more consecutive days you play, the greater your rewards. Even without purchasing Summon Tickets, you’ll be surprised at how quickly you can build up a solid collection of Champions simply by logging in daily and collecting your gameplay rewards!
New Champions
New Champions are released in each new Season. To ensure that they get into the hands of the hungry players, these new Champions are given a greatly enhanced drop rate from Summon Tickets throughout the first Season of their arrival!
Until the end of the current season, you’ll have an increased chance of summoning both Deros and King Titan, the brand new Champions in the game!
For Sale in the Gala Store
Sometimes you’ll have the chance to purchase Champion Boxes directly from the GalaChain store, which contain already-minted NFT Champions of various rarities. But you’ll have to watch the store closely because these Champion Boxes tend to sell out quickly!
Gem Packs are always available in various quantities, and they’re the best way to beef up your Champions Arena collection quickly! Starting today (February 8th) in honor of the Lunar New Year celebration, all Gem Packs are 15% off in the Gala store!
