September 9, 2024Let’s take a look at what’s been happening in BattleRise.
A free-to-play mobile strategy RPG.
In William McKenzie’s previous article, we explored BattleRise: Kingdom of Champions, a mobile RPG set in the mythical world of EOS. The article explored the game’s immersive storyline, strategic gameplay, and the promise of integrating the Tezos blockchain to enhance the gaming experience. As BattleRise expands, the team at Triumph Games pushes forward with new developments that signal a significant shift toward Web3.
With a solid foundation, BattleRise is moving into its next chapter, introducing innovative gameplay modes, strategic partnerships, and the highly-anticipated Etherlink integration. These updates add to the gameplay experience and open the door for a more interactive and community-driven future. Let’s dive into what’s new and what it means for current players and those considering joining the BattleRise community.
BattleRise features a detailed and rich history and lore.
New Gameplay Features
As BattleRise grows, new gameplay features freshen the player experience, offering new challenges and creative opportunities. One of the most exciting features currently in development is the ‘Dungeon Builder Toolset’. This upcoming toolset will allow players to create and share their dungeons, offering a new level of personalization and creativity. Players can design encounters, treasures, and scenarios with a simple drag-and-drop construction kit, shaping unique gameplay experiences.
Meanwhile, the new ‘Gauntlet Mode’ will bring heightened intensity to BattleRise. This card-based, speed round mode will feature 8-player PvP matches, where players must compete against each other and the dungeon to be the last player standing. Combining strategic card play with fast-paced action, ‘Gauntlet Mode’ promises a thrilling and competitive environment where only the most skilled will survive.
The ‘Story Mode’ also receives a significant update as the developers begin incorporating AI-driven storytelling elements and a dedicated content staff. These two combine to create a more immersive and personalized narrative experience, adapting the story to player choices and actions. This push towards AI storytelling is set to deepen the lore of BattleRise and offer players a richer, more interactive experience.

Strategic Partnerships and Technological Advancements
BattleRise embraces strategic partnerships and technological advancements to enhance the game and expand its reach. One of the most exciting collaborations is with Aethir, a decentralized cloud computing infrastructure network designed to support real-time rendering at scale for mobile and PC cloud gaming. Aethir aggregates enterprise-grade GPU resources into a global network, providing low-latency, scalable, and affordable computing power. In other words, this service will speed up and lighten the client’s load on player hardware. This infrastructure is crucial for BattleRise, enabling the game to deliver seamless, high-performance gaming experiences across geographies without requiring high-end hardware.
In addition to Aethir, BattleRise has partnered with HyperPlay, a Web3-native game store designed to address user experience and infrastructure challenges in Web3-enabled gaming. HyperPlay enhances the gaming experience with seamless wallet interactions via MetaMask and WalletConnect. For developers, HyperPlay offers flexible solutions, from easy-to-adopt wallet APIs to no-code SDKs for Unity and Unreal Engine, enabling smooth integration of Web3 features. This integration also will position BattleRise in front of many new eyes.
