Lowkick Studio has announced the launch of the $SHARDS token, the core of their MMORPG WorldShards. Players will be able to experience the game for free for 30 days.
Fair Launch of $SHARDS Token
The project team has developed a "100% fair launch model" for the $SHARDS token. No tokens will be allocated to the development team or early investors. Over half (60%) of the tokens are designated for game rewards, 25% for ecosystem development, and the remaining 15% for marketing and community growth. All allocations will have a 6-year vesting period, which is a popular strategy for ensuring long-term platform sustainability.
Early Popularity and Achievements
Before the token launch, WorldShards demonstrated significant traction in the blockchain gaming sector:
* Over $8.9 million in NFT sales. * More than 400,000 members in the WorldShards community. * Users spent over 3.1 million hours playing the game.
The project has also gained industry recognition, being named the "Most Anticipated Blockchain Game (2025)" and receiving the Best Game Design award from PlayToEarn.com.
Unique Gameplay Model of WorldShards
WorldShards offers a depth characteristic of traditional MMORPGs and allows players to own assets through blockchain. Players can explore, craft, engage in PvE battles, live on their own islands, and own digital assets that last forever. The gameplay occurs in the magical sandbox world of Murrlandia.
Key features of the project include:
* Players can own digital land. * There are crafting and economy systems linked to $SHARDS. * To celebrate the TGE, developers enabled a token drop for every player with full access (no gear charge required).
By using blockchain, players can prove ownership of items and assets, adding both economic and cultural value to the community.
WorldShards continues to expand its audience and is preparing for a global launch. The $SHARDS token and the opportunities provided to players bolster its position in the rapidly evolving blockchain gaming sector.
