Gunzilla Games is set to launch its Avalanche-based GUNZ Network and native GUN token on March 31, 2025. This move aligns with the studio’s earlier Q1 2025 launch estimate.
GUN Token to Be Listed on Binance
The GUN token will be immediately tradable on Binance, carrying a “seed tag.” This label indicates that the token originates from an innovative project but may experience higher volatility and risk. The total supply of GUN is 10 billion tokens, with 400 million (4%) allocated as staking rewards via Binance Launchpool.
GUNZ Network Expands Web3 Gaming
Gunzilla Games teamed up with Delphi Ventures three months ago to establish the GUNZ Foundation, a nonprofit overseeing the network’s development. Once the GUNZ mainnet goes live, players of Off the Grid will be able to trade in-game assets, including weapons and skins, as well as the GUN token.
According to GUNZ Network’s website, this is the first-ever AAA gaming platform allowing users to convert in-game items into NFTs, tradeable within the marketplace or externally.
Market Speculation and User Activity
Before the official announcement, prediction markets on MYRIAD showed skepticism about the launch happening on time. Initially, 75% of traders bet against the launch occurring by the end of Q1, but after the news broke, sentiment flipped to 73% in favor. However, as of now, only 43% of users remain confident about the March 31 launch.
Meanwhile, some users have already started trading in-game items on unofficial black markets, with rare assets selling for thousands of dollars. The mainnet launch will provide an official marketplace, eliminating the need for these unregulated trades.
Off the Grid and Beyond
Off the Grid, available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X, launched in early access in October 2024, drawing attention from both gamers and crypto enthusiasts. The GUNZ Network will also support other game studios, with the GUN token serving as a unified currency across multiple titles.
