Gigaverse Transitions from The Awakening to Gigaverse Online

Conclusion of The Awakening

Gigaverse officially ended its first event, The Awakening, on October 9. This event, which lasted approximately 60 days and featured a prize pool exceeding $30,000, was the last activity in what is now termed Legacy Gigaverse. As the game goes offline, legacy contracts are being phased out while players await the launch of Gigaverse Online.

Event Details and Player Engagement

During The Awakening, players earned a points currency called Hard Cores through various activities, including dungeon runs and fishing. While most in-game items were wiped at the conclusion, eternal items like medals and skins will carry over into the new game. The results of the event were published as the Hall of Noobs, showcasing nearly 6,000 ranked accounts, with the top player, afropengu, earning 9,772,995 Hard Cores.

Future Developments and Migration Plans

Looking ahead, Gigaverse plans to introduce additional leaderboards for medals, collectors, and Gigling racers. Players will eventually be able to interact with these boards within Gigaverse Online. However, the game is transitioning from the Abstract blockchain, which is shutting down on December 15, to Ethereum under a new "ROMs 2.0" scheme. Players must log into Gigaverse Online using their legacy wallet to reclaim their Giganame and any rewards from The Awakening.

Uncertain Launch Timeline

The studio has yet to announce a specific launch date for Gigaverse Online. There are indications that an open world may be available later this year, but this has not been officially confirmed. As players await further details, the focus remains on finalizing the event, opening prize claims, and completing the migration process.
