iFighter Infinity is a flight action game based on blockchain technology and themed after interstellar exploration. It will bring players fun and earnings. Although it seems like a P2E game, its actual gameplay and innovative interstellar theme have driven iFighter Infinity’s popularity in the market to surpass most of P2E blockchain games.

How did iFighter Infinity give a rise to the interstellar heat and win so many players? And why could it stand out among so many blockchain games?

Make iFighter Infinity an easy play

First of all, let’s begin with the most basic things — how to play in iFighter Infinity.

Once players come into the gaming world of iFighter Infinity, they can participate in the two events listed below:

Upgrade and battle: After receiving warships, players can synthesize and upgrade the equipment NFT to make warships stronger and have defensive power, allowing it to complete more missions and defeat more enemy warships, which enables players to upgrade to better warships and get more rewards for their loot after winning the game.

Trade: players can trade their loot with other players in the NFT market of iFighter Infinity.

As for the settings of storyline background, iFighter Infinity is a flight action game based on blockchain technology and themed after interstellar exploration. Players can experience an unknown world in a parallel universe. All players have a similar start point, and they can start the game or launch the challenge in an entirely transparent and open environment.

In terms of the gameplay, the basic mode of iFighter Infinity has enabled the warship and equipment upgrade and players to complete missions, which is very common in the game. Besides that, iFighter Infinity has added infinite battles and the arena, which are hidden plays and belong to players at a higher level. The difficulty of them is comparatively high but their rewards are also higher.

As a P2E game, iFighter Infinity has a strong financial feature. All behaviors of players in the game will be financialized, as well as their social activities. GameFi and SocialFi act an important role in iFighter Infinity, which are essential to the entire game, making every move of players meaningful and valuable.

The presale airdrop of mysterious boxes is continuing, and according to the roadmap, the game will be launched very soon. This round of presale airdrop includes IIS tokens and warship NFT. NFT is an important digital asset in iFighter Infinity. Not only the equipment in the game (including weapons, shields and reactors) are all NFT assets of players. Through the game, players can trade their NFT assets via the NFT Market, in exchange for real assets to earn economic incomes. Every NFT has different value, the rarer the warship and equipment NFT, which are usually unique in the game, the more valuable the NFT in the NFT market.

Understand the economic mechanism of iFighter Infinity

Indeed, the economic model of P2E game is worth more attention from players, because it is highly relevant to the direct income of players.

IIS (iFighter Infinity Stakes) is iFighter Infinity DAO’s governance token. Players can make proposals on governing the gaming system and cast their vote on major decisions. IIS is not just a key token determining the future growth of the game’s value but also the future development of the entire community. IIS can be used to determine the future development of the community or used as the transaction fee to purchase NFT assets in the market, as well as a stake to get iGAS and iRon rewards from the liquidity of AMM. The other three tokens, iGAS, iRON and iGold, are all assets in the game. They are more relevant to player’s upgrade and experience in the game.

IIS is the key in the economic system of the entire game. As a P2E game, the size of user market depends on the value increase of IIS. At the same time, the rewarding mechanism of iFighter Infinity’s economic system can expand the market share of the game and incentivize the value of IIS.

With a total of 100 million IIS tokens, 50% of them will be used for game rewards, which will be distributed to all players through game and mission completion. Marketing, airdrop, liquidity, staking rewards and ecological funds account for 8%,2%,10%, 7% and 8% respectively. Tokens for the team (10%) and counselor (5%) will be locked for 6 months, and once every three months will release 10% of them.

According to the official distribution map of the token economy, the IIS tokens will not be transacted in the market at the very beginning, only 2% of tokens will be used for official airdrop events. This mechanism is to ensure the market transaction of IIS tokens and avoid the fear of hammering. This mechanism can ensure players’ real experience the fun of P2E. The blockchain game will focus more on the game itself, and P2E will return the governance power to its users.

The contribution of IIS to iFighter Infinity is that through liquidity staking, trade and governing basis, it promotes the direct development of the game. At the same time, developers of iFighter Infinity have decided to use 50% of the game’s revenue to repurchase IIS and iGold and lock them in iFighter Infinity’s DAO, forming a deflation mechanism for tokens, promoting the value increase of IIS and bringing more players to get IIS. Regardless of the player being a holder or trader, their behaviors will produce a positive impact on the entire gaming system of iFighter Infinity.

How will iFighter Infinity outperform its competitors?

Besides iFighter Infinity, other blockchain game under the theme of universe also became popular and multiple similar games were launched online, such as Celestial, which is also an interstellar action game.

iFighter Infinity shares many similarities with Celestial. For one thing, they are all themed after interstellar travel and are all action games. For the other, they use warships to battle, introduce the DAO governing mechanism, and aim to build a more democratic game community. As GameFi integrate with SocialFi, the double concept grants the game financial feature and adds social function to the game, increasing the user cohesion to the game by forming a giant social circle, allowing the game to have longer life and sustainable development.

The difference is that iFighter Infinity has added more hidden gameplays in addition to normal gameplays, such as the infinity challenge and the arena, making the game much more playable. Besides that, Celestial only has the governance token of CELT, but iFighter Infinity has IIS as its main governance token, adding with iGAS, iRON and iGold, forming a complete four-pillar token economic system and combining the decentralized finance with games.

In addition, iFighter Infinity has realized innovation on the storage techniques of NFTs by using decentralized storage plan IPFS to resolve the problem of failing to store digital asset documents of NFT. These NFT document data don’t need to rely on any decentralized platform to make the storage, and its security can be better guaranteed.

In the end

The blockchain market of 2020 has gained momentum, and the blend of SocialFi with Metaverse has become a trend of blockchain. The market share can only be expanded by establishing a high-quality player community.

With assistance from GameFi and SocialFi, iFighter Infinity can construct an interstellar universe for fun, enabling users to explore the interstellar universe through 3D immersive travels.
