Hamster Kombat, the popular Telegram-based tap-to-earn game, has announced plans to launch a Layer-2 network on The Open Network (TON) after a failed airdrop earlier this year.
The new network, called Hamster
Network, aims to expand the utility of the HMSTR token and power the
Hamsterverse ecosystem.
This initiative follows a community
vote supporting the creation of a dedicated blockchain to expand the utility of
the Hamster Kombat token (HMSTR).
The upcoming blockchain, reportedly
named Hamster Network, will form the foundation of the broader Hamsterverse
ecosystem.
The Hamster Network aims to strengthen
Hamster Kombat’s position in decentralized gaming with DAO-backed strategies.
The project plans a major gameplay
overhaul in Season 2, focusing on player-driven customization and innovation.
Hamster Kombat's Season 2 introduced a
major gameplay overhaul, including new features, a staking-like system,
and expanded platform access:
New features
The new season focuses on building a
video game platform instead of running a crypto exchange. Players can
choose game genres and themes, hire team members, and complete activities that
can take multiple days.
Staking-like system
Players can earn extra rewards by
holding their in-game HMSTR tokens. This feature encourages long-term
engagement and may increase the value of the token.
Expanded platform access
The game is now available on web
applications, with plans for desktop PC integration. This expansion will
bring in more players and increase the action.
Other features of Season 2 include:
