Cosmic Bomber is an action-maze game where players strategically place explosive magic balloons to outsmart and eliminate rival teams. Players  navigate diverse blocks that unlock special items to boost their path to victory while avoiding splash damage and being tagged by opponents. 

 

Leveraging nWay’s vast experience in multiplayer games, Cosmic Bomber features real-time Player-versus-Player (PvP) competitions, digital ownership of unique characters, and an innovative hybrid economy that allows all users to sustainably earn, spend, and sell in-game assets. Cosmic Bomber runs on dynamic seasons that introduce new IPs and bring fresh characters and maps to the Cosmic Bomber universe.

 

nWay has partnered with Mocaverse, the marquee consumer network with an interoperable infrastructure layer of Account, Identity, and Reputation systems seeded by Animoca Brands, to present Cosmic Bomber Season 1 within Mocaverse’s Cosmic Club social gaming hub. Cosmic Club is creating a cross-ecosystem synergistic platform to enhance user onboarding and growth, and to utilize PvP elements to foster social interaction among Web3 communities. 

 

The beta of Cosmic Bomber is now available to 1.79 million holders of Moca ID, Mocaverse’s decentralized identifier (DID) that gives users access to the growing Moca Network and to participating projects in Animoca Brands’ portfolio of more than 540 Web3 investments. Moca ID holders will be able to earn Realm Points (RP), the loyalty points of Moca ID, by playing and competing in Cosmic Bomber. As part of Cosmic Club, players can spend RPs to enroll in special tournaments and climb the leaderboards to win more RP rewards.

 

Kenneth Shek, project lead for Mocaverse, said: “We're incredibly excited to partner with nWay to launch the beta of Cosmic Bomber exclusively to our Mocaverse community via Cosmic Club with a strong social element. Cosmic Club is a hub and clubhouse where Moca ID users gather and socialize with their fellows. Together with nWay, we are very excited to bring this engaging and interactive social experience to our community.”

 

Steve Kuroki, co-CEO of nWay, said: “We are excited to welcome players to Cosmic Bomber! Our goal was to create a game that’s both familiar and easy to enjoy. With strategic, casual-style gameplay and a playful aesthetic, Cosmic Bomber offers fun-filled competition with the chance to earn exciting rewards. We can’t wait for players to dive into this thrilling adventure and pop their way to the top.”

 

nWay comprises highly experienced developers and executives who have worked at numerous leading technology companies, including Google, Tencent, Sony, Electronic Arts, Nintendo, LucasArts, Blizzard, Kabam, Nexon, and NCSoft. In 2019, nWay was acquired by Animoca Brands to further bolster the company’s capabilities in the competitive multiplayer gaming space. nWay recently launched Olympic Games Paris 2024 Mascot NFT digital pins and Olympics™ Go! Paris 2024, the official video game for the Olympic Games Paris 2024. The company has also developed and published multiple AAA games on mobile and console, including Wreck League, Power Rangers: Battle for the Grid, and Power Rangers: Legacy Wars. Most recently, nWay was ranked #35 in the list of the top 50 blockchain companies of 2024 compiled by industry pundit BlockchainGamer.biz

 

Moca ID holders can play the beta of Cosmic Bomber now at cosmicbomber.xyz. While the beta of Cosmic Bomber is accessible only to Moca NFT and ID holders, the full game will be available to all players for free after the beta is concluded, regardless of whether they own specific NFTs or fungible tokens.

Moca ID can be claimed for free at mocaverse.xyz/moca-id with a Moca NFT or an invite code, which can be obtained from the Mocaverse community members.
