Fight Legends Multiverse

Fight Legends is a fighting game featuring the best fighters throughout the Multiverse. Players will collect stylized in-game assets and earn tokenized rewards while fighting each other for fame and glory. They will trade, level up and customize their Fighters in a player owned economy where users truly own the in-game assets they earn.

Fight Legends takes place in a future with no mechanical weapons.

But how could this be? Well, animals aren't inherently warful.

Violent? Inexplicably at times.

However, homicide isn't war.

War is collective.

It is the scarcity of resources that leads to wars. Or at least the fear of resource scarcity.

As alternative green energies were developed alongside interdimensional travel capabilities, it became cheaper to extract the needed resources without conflict because of the inordinate size of the multiverse

Society's money started going into the space program and almost completely dropped out of the weapons budget of societies as they realized to compete with other interdimensional societies that have to reshape their economic and trade infrastructure from a global economy to a multiverse economy.

Now, wars are fought with computer code if you are a suit and with blood and bone if you weren't born with a silver spoon in your mouth.

When the Rift Wars started, the lack of weapons forced the Agency to use the Multiverse to succumb to the greatest Fighters possible towards protecting Earth. Those that fought and survived the first Rift Wars were dubbed FIGHT LEGENDS.

A secret group of Fight Legend mercenaries during the first Rift War were so brutal and efficient they left the gore of their enemies’ faces imprinted on walls throughout the Multiverse. Through these acts, they garnered the nickname The Bloody Faces and represent the first and most dedicated group of Fight Legends

Now with a seemingly peaceful time in the Multiverse, the Rifts have been reopened for a multiverse combat tournament to deem who is the best of the best throughout the entire Multiverse!

The Fight Legends gameplay experience will include something for every player. From competing with others for ranking and rewards to discovering their favorite Fighter’s motivations while gaining rewards in Story Mode, there’s tons of value throughout the gameplay utility.

Beyond Story Mode, players also will earn through completing unique, regularly scheduled and rotating, challenges. Prizes can even include in-game NFT assets and free entry into esports tournaments.

Community and Economy

By designing Fight Legends with fun and tight gameplay mechanics we will build a strong, competitive community of players. Our PvP has many possible modes with two main sides: traditional eSports and NFT based eSports. In traditional eSports fighting games each player uses fighters of an equivalent “level”. To facilitate this, our traditional eSports modes will lock a player’s fighter to a benchmark level. In our NFT based eSports (and PvE), players compete with their fighters at the level they have reached when accounting for the buffs of their trainer(s) and item(s). Our NFT eSports/PvP modes add an element of strategy and tactics with loadout choices. This creates a deep, unique player identity as players build their teams, upgrade their fighters and compete with a journey of measured experience behind them.

All assets in Fight Legends are NFTs and can be earned through grinding story mode & single player modes or by eventual purchase in the marketplace.

Modes that allow for NFT enhancement and customization will develop a strong in-game, player driven economy. Players will earn through playing and then can spend their rewards towards leveling up and customizing their Fighters and Gyms.

The Fight Legends GameFi mechanics will allow players to sell and trade their Fighters and other owned, in-game assets. They’ll also be able to lease out their Fighters, allowing other players in the community the ability to use their assets in trade for a portion of their winnings earned while using the rented item. That way players can try before they buy!

Players who lease their Fighters will gain a percentage of the rewards that their Fighter gains while being leased out. (Staking the NFT).

$FIGHT and $EXP will be two of the premium currencies used in Fight Legends. They can be spent on upgrading or summoning Fighters, purchasing new items and more.

Players will gain these rewards to advance in-game by:

Mission

To create the best fighting game on the planet supported by a player-owned and GameFi driven economy.

Vision

To be the best Fighting game on the planet, holding massive eSports tournaments livestreamed by millions. We are going to champion a new paradigm in fight games, bringing innovation made possible by the use of unique player owned assets, decentralised economies and the inclusion of web 3.0 and blockchain technology.

Gameplay

Combat

The Fight Legends team is currently developing a tight, mechanically solid combat system. Our Animation Director and other members of the team have worked on some of the most classic games in the genre including Street Fighter, Tekken and Soul Calibur.

Taking additional inspiration from titles like Mortal Kombat, Guilty Gear, Marvel Heroes and others, the Fight Legends’ 2.5D gameplay will prove a unique combat system that's fun and simple to learn but challenging to master. We’re well underway with the foundations of the system and all of its supporting network architecture.

eSports

Because fighting games are intrinsically competitive at their core and our team here have been eSports fans for years, it is a strong goal of ours to create and foster the growth of Fight Legends into acceptance on the global stage that is competitive gaming.

The modes we’ve designed have been built to support what makes those special “golden moments” in eSports when players develop their own unique style of play and pull off amazing tactics and strategies. Amazing, 200 IQ level plays will be made possible and arenas will be filled with fans exploding with excitement!

Gym and Fighter Customization

Each Fighter has their own skill caps to their fighting styles.

Players own Gyms in Fight Legends. Gyms are where Fighters train to maximize their stats and equip items they earn in order to customize their gameplay. Gyms also offer bonuses as players level them up, allowing for even more Fighters to train at once and other perks.

Spending rewards earned in game to increase the Gyms benefits allow players to increase opportunities by:

Fight Legend Principles

Fight Legends is a new breed of fighting game that rewards players for both investing their time playing for fun as well as incentivizing players to interact with the $FIGHT powered blockchain ecosystem.

We are designing Fight Legends so that the time invested in leveling and customizing Fighters and Gyms gives them real value. Players have total ownership over this value and can choose to keep investing time and money to grow their assets' value.

Player Retention and Economic Sustainability

We plan to sustain the economy long-term by:

In the beginning of the game the economy will be dependent on early backers purchasing or lending NFTs they have been gifted. As they rent them out to new players, those new players use this mechanic to find and purchase their first NFTs in game. The economy will move away from the early backer subgroup and grow exponentially along with the releasing of new NFTs, Stages and Regions.

Additional Funding and Capital

Planning for after the game launches, we’ve already started designing the next steps for the games income to steadily grow:
