What is Gangster Arena

Gangster Arena, being built by Uncharted, is described as an on-chain strategy game on the Blast Blockchain where you play as a mob boss aiming to increase your gang's reputation and climb the leaderboard. Recruit Gangsters and Goons, engage in gang wars, and strategically expand your influence. 

Uncharted aims to make crypto gaming more enjoyable and rewarding. The company is backed by notable investors, including Shima, Spartan, and Zynga co-founder Justin Waldron.

Gangster Arena 2: Designed for Degens

Gangster Arena 2 is crafted for players who prefer idle and AFK (away from keyboard) gameplay. The on-chain game allows users to log in for just a few minutes each day. The gameplay emphasizes strategy and game theory, offering multiple ways to earn rewards. Players can compete on leaderboards, farm $GREED, find arbitrage opportunities, or join gang wars.

New Gameplay, and In-Game Currency

In Gangster Arena 2, players build their gang by purchasing and leveling up units to increase their reputation. At the end of each season, rewards are based on players' reputation scores. The game also features XGREED, an off-chain currency that can be converted to $GREED.

Game theory is a central element in Gangster Arena 2. Players’ actions influence others, affecting the price of units, the duration of the game, and the outcomes of gang wars. This interconnectedness ensures a dynamic and competitive environment where strategic planning is crucial.

Play to $GREED

$GREED is the in-game token that powers the economy of Gangster Arena 2. This season is the only opportunity for players to mint $GREED, after which it will become a capped and deflationary token. The developers have indicated that $GREED will have further utility in future seasons.

Community Rewards

Gangster Arena 2 is designed to be rewarding for its community. Unlike many other games, there are no allocations for the development team or venture capitalists. Instead, 100% of the $GREED earned goes directly to the players. Additionally, players can earn U points, which will be convertible to $U, the ecosystem token for all Uncharted games and infrastructure.

100% of the $GREED Earn

Here are the latest updates as of July 2024:

• Gangster Arena 2 has officially concluded, attracting over 800 paying players—a more than threefold increase from the first season.
