The gaming world is about to behold a gem that combines the addictive qualities of Role-Playing Game trading card games with the future-forward perks of blockchain technology. ‘The Lost Glitches’ just announced its open beta on the Xai Blockchain, ushering a new era of digital gaming that could bridge the gap between old-school gaming experiences and web3, paving the way for a new future of gaming where players can own and enjoy the new multiverse like never before.
The kick-off of open beta isn’t just a testing phase, it’s an opportunity for Gamers and Cryptonians to experience an explorative crypto-themed ARPG, discover its world and take part in shaping it. This will be the first time players will have the chance to make their mark in shaping a whole new digital universe. Open beta will also give us feedback and insight from players, which will be very valuable as the game approaches its eventual launch.
‘The Lost Glitches’ is developed over the network of the Xai Blockchain, a Layer-3 gaming-optimised blockchain system. That special choice is the reason why it is possible to actually own a digital artefact in ‘The Lost Glitches’. Every trade, every strategy and every victory is recorded and acknowledged because of the security and transparency of blockchain technology.
The Lost Glitches isn’t just a game – it’s a portal, a bridge. For those of us still living very much in Web2, migrating into a Web3 environment can be a harrowing experience, but there’s something about this game that makes the leap very easy. Its open beta means you don’t have to be a crypto whale or skilled blockchain developer to dive into a game that feels both incredibly nostalgic, yet also new and fresh.
The thing that perhaps best illustrates how community-driven ‘The Lost Glitches’ can be, thanks to blockchain development, is the way it constantly updates through what it calls the ‘open beta’, where changes being considered for the game get announced openly, with a call for feedback and even suggestions. At the end of the day, it’s the players – the people who have obsessed over every detail of the game to a frightening degree – who have the ultimate say in what The Lost Glitches is and will be. If you care about gaming, pay attention to this.
If The Lost Glitches evokes the backroom game shops of a bygone era, it also mixes classic card-game mechanics with the native possibilities of blockchain technology. Instead of just a battleground for CCG enthusiasts, its creators envision a virtual marketplace, where players can buy, sell and harness singular digital assets. That dual identity might explain why the open beta invites both hardcore gamers, who expect a challenge, and a certain breed of blockchain dilettante, who wants to play with it.
And with the open beta officially underway, available from today on the Epic Games Store, ‘The Lost Glitches’ journey is just beginning. The experience and feedback gleaned from going open beta will be crucial in establishing a roadmap for the full release, which, as outlined by the developers: ‘will continue to refine the experience with the help of the community and feedback from players all over the world to deliver a great experience. We’re focused on making the final product better than any of our expectations.’ The possibilities of blockchain gaming could only expand from here. They could move it closer to the heart of popular video gaming, which means making it accessible, fun and profitable for a wider global audience.
A hint that the term ‘open’ is something more than a marketing nod to the open beta phase, and maybe a signifier of the openness, transparency and other good things that blockchain tech will hopefully bring to gaming: an openness that might help to bring about a gaming sphere where the players own their in-game assets in a real way, where transactions are provably authentic and secure, and where the community has a serious stake in the evolution of the game. That’s The Lost Glitches now, in its open beta phase. That’s what The Lost Glitches is promising to be when it goes, if and when a full, standalone title gets released, the last stop on its open road.
Overall, ‘The Lost Glitches’ is the exciting union of gaming and blockchain in action – paving the way for a future where games become platforms for discovery, experimentation, community and permanence. As the game moves out of its open beta phase, players and developers will be empowered to share in a pioneering spirit, where blockchain becomes a transformative medium for gaming.
