Welcome to the OpenSea Digest, our recap of the biggest NFT and web3 news from the week.
Artwork for Logic's new album Ultra 85, created by Sam Spratt
Rapper and producer Logic has just released his much-anticipated new album, Ultra 85, which features 20 songs and a host of musical guests. Web3 fans will recognize the album’s cover, which is a soft, futuristic work by digital artist Sam Spratt, best known for his Luci series, which has sold millions of dollars and attracted the attention of high-profile collectors.
Recently, popular digital artist batz purchased one of Spratt’s pieces, demonstrating the continued influence of Spratt’s work.
Spratt and Logic are longtime collaborators, having worked together on Ultra 85 albums over the course of seven years, and Spratt recently suggested in a blog post that Logic might soon move away from rapping and toward composing the soundtrack for Luci “with big instrumentals.”
Illuvium to integrate games into Samsung TVs at Gamescom
Illuvium, an open-world role-playing game that launched its mainnet in early August 2024, is currently working with Samsung to bring web3 gaming to the company’s smart TVs.
The partnership will debut at Gamescom, the annual industry expo taking place in Cologne, Germany, from August 21-25, 2024, where fans will be able to experience all three games in the Illuvium universe (Overworld, Arena, and Zero) and have a chance to win prizes.
Ubisoft Partners with Arbitrum to Launch New Player-Powered Web3 Games
Assassin’s Creed creator Ubisoft has partnered with Ethereum layer-2 platform Arbitrum to launch a new web3 game called Captain Laserhawk: the GAME.
The game is set in the dystopian world of Eden and allows players to shape the plot and make decisions that affect its direction. With the help of blockchain technology, players will be able to create, collaborate and share content with each other, potentially improving their citizen scores and gaining greater influence.
The game will be launched soon, and 10,000 citizen ID cards will be available initially for early access.
Jack Butcher and Jalil Wahdatehagh Release “Consensus Met”
Jack Butcher and Jalil Wahdatehagh – partners at Visualize Value and creators of the innovative Checks and Opepen digital art series – have launched Consensus Met, introducing fans to a compelling new mechanic.
To mint Consensus Met, collectors must “burn” or permanently remove Opepen NFTs from circulation, with burned Opepens losing voting rights in ongoing Opepen art projects.
In exchange, they will be replaced by new artwork and a separate Ethereum contract, with a maximum supply of 16,000 Consensus Met NFTs.
As Bankless explains in the latest issue of its Metaversal newsletter, the project introduces a new type of intentional and irreversible scarcity, a decision that forces collectors to choose the type of engagement that matters most to them: the opportunity to collect a new work of art, or to continue to influence an established project.
Atari launches Breakout on Base
Classic game developer Atari has officially launched its resurrected 1976 classic game “Breakout” on Coinbase’s Ethereum L2 network Base as part of Base’s Onchain Summer event, where players can compete for leaderboard positions and have the chance to win prizes.
To participate, players must connect their wallets and mint a Breakout NFT, with proceeds from minting going directly to the game’s developers and artists, Base announced.
OpenSea to integrate GUNZ blockchain for Gunzilla in-game items
Innovative AAA game studio Gunzilla Games is preparing to launch “Off The Grid” (OTG), a new blockchain-based battle royale game for PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles later this year.
Developed by industry veterans, OTG brings players a whole new take on the battle royale genre, including expansive border maps, story-driven gameplay, and a more interactive world that changes the way players buy and sell in-game items.
As the first web3 game on the PlayStation 5 console, OTG will run on Gunzilla’s GUNZ blockchain built by Avalanche, a feature first announced in April 2024 that will allow players to collect in-game items and seamlessly list them on OpenSea as NFTs.
