MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA / ACCESSWIRE / July 26, 2024 / Perion Labs and Shrapnel announce their partnership for Perion's current project, XP.GG, a gaming platform that lets gamers get rewarded by playing their favorite games. XP.GG features a Universal Battle Pass across all XP.GG games, giving gamers a shot at real prizes for getting good.
"XP.GG represents a new world that merges web3 and web2 gaming," said Tony Valcarcel, Head of Marketing at Shrapnel. "We're excited to be the first web3 game on the XP.GG platform - Shrapnel will help XP.GG take their offering further for gamers to get good and get rewarded."
XP.GG will launch August 1, 2024 with Fortnite, Counter-Strike 2 and Overwatch, with more games being added each month. Limited access to Shrapnel will be live for XP.GG gamers during playtests through the end of 2024, with full access in early 2025.
"Shrapnel is one of the most impressive web 3 games we've come across," said Amos Whitewolf, co-founder of Perion and Chief Technology Officer of XP.GG. "So it was an easy choice to add it to XP.GG so gamers could level-up their Universal Battle Pass by playing. We can't wait for XP.GG gamers to get rewarded with real prizes as they get good in Shrapnel's ever-expanding world."
SHRAPNEL is an intensely competitive AAA extraction shooter, launching on PC in 2025. As a MEF Operator, you will experience a not-too-distant future where a mysterious substance has changed the balance of power as we know it. Your mission: extract … or die trying.
Get Good. Get Rewarded.
Gamers can take on challenges in their favourite games designed to sharpen their skills and, in return, level up their Universal Battle Pass at XP.GG. Season 0's prizes include a $6,000 gaming PC setup, a Fortnite-themed Secret Labs gaming chair, a PS5, $1000 CS2 knife, and more, totaling over $10,000 in value. Prizes will increase in value each Season as more gamers Get Good and Get Rewarded.
"Every victory on XP.GG brings more than just glory; it brings tangible rewards across all the games you play," added Amos. "So earning rewards becomes a game itself, on top of the challenge of getting good in the games you love."
