Back when it launched in early 2022, Crypto Unicorns was a posterchild for the whole Polygon gaming ecosystem, but the breed, battle and collect title has now completed its migration to Arbitrum L3 Xai.

Crucially, support for Xai means that users no longer have to deal with Crypto Unicorns’ own infrastructure, which resulted in much friction as you had to bridge assets to and from the Polygon mainnet.

The Xai migration has also resulted in the launch of a new native marketplace, gas-free transactions as well as various reward campaigns, both in the new CU tokens – effectively a reissued version of the old RBW token – and the underlying XAI token.

“Launching Crypto Unicorns on Xai is a game-changer for our community,” commented Aron Beierchmitt, CEO of Crypto Unicorns’ developer Laguna Games.

“With faster, gas-free transactions, a new marketplace, and enhanced features, the player experience is significantly improved. By combining these advancements with hyper deflationary tokenomics, we are setting the stage for a stable and sustainable in-game economy. Two years of bear-market-building is finally coming to fruition!”

Next up comes Crypto Unicorns’ play-to-airdrop campaign, which will launch on Monday 1st July and run for two months. Xai is including the game in its own Vanguard rewards campaign too.

Players will be able to earn Xai rewards logging in and completing tasks, while Shadowcorn NFT owners will receive additional Xai rewards by minting minions in the Shadow Forge, a feature in which they can harvest resources, craft rituals, and mint minions to improve their standing on the leaderboard. They will also have access to future Shadowcorn vs Unicorn game loops.

You can find out more and play the game via the Crypto Unicorns’ website.
