Shrapnel has officially entered Steam Early Access, opening the Zone to players around the world.
Players can now jump into the battlefield directly through Steam and experience the game as development continues toward full release.
This launch comes as Shrapnel continues expanding its infrastructure on GalaChain, including the migration of its in-game digital assets to the network.
A New Home for Shrapnel’s Digital Assets
Neon Machine recently announced the strategic move of Shrapnel’s assets from Avalanche to GalaChain. The migration brings faster finality, lower gas costs, and deeper integration with the GalaChain ecosystem.
The transition also supports the game’s long-term vision of player ownership and a growing network of connected experiences across the Gala ecosystem.
Early Access Begins
With Early Access now live on Steam, players can begin exploring Shrapnel’s 4v4 objective based gameplay while the team continues to expand features, refine mechanics, and grow the world of the game.

Node Owners: Boost your Node Rewards with eligible $GALA Liquidity Pools + GALA / BENE pool added to eligible pools
You asked for more upside on “working” $GALA, so we’re adding boosts to $GALA held in eligible GalaSwap liquidity pools, on top of counting it in the daily snapshot.
What’s new:
- New eligible pool added
GALA / BENE
- Boosts being applied to eligible liquidity pools
- GALA / ETH, BTC, XRP, SOL, USDT, USDC = +50% boost
- GALA / BENE = +100% boost
How it works
- In the daily Node Staking snapshot, we count $GALA held on GalaChain, in your Allowance, and in eligible GalaSwap liquidity pools.
- We then apply the pool boost to the eligible $GALA portion of your liquidity position.
- We total your eligible (and boosted) $GALA and calculate node rewards as usual.
- No changes to the requirement of 1,000,000 GALA per node held on GalaChain to receive maximum rewards.
How to set up a Liquidity Pool on Gala Swap
- Go to GalaSwap and Connect your wallet
- Click ‘Pools’, then ‘New Position’
- Select an eligible Pair
- Set your fee, range and deposit
- Confirm your pool
Don’t have the matching token for your chosen pair? You can bridge tokens into GalaChain or swap on GalaSwap (Remember, only the $GALA portion of your position is counted toward the snapshot).
Head to GalaSwap and be rewarded for putting your $GALA to work.
