Ubisoft Integrates Onchain Identities in Captain Laserhawk Universe
馃幃 Goodbye Gamertags Forever?
Ubisoft is taking a significant step in gaming identity management with its Captain Laserhawk Universe. The game will move away from traditional usernames and gamertags, instead implementing blockchain-based player identities.
- Players will have verifiable onchain identities
- Integration marks shift from anonymous gaming handles
- Part of broader NFT initiative for Captain Laserhawk shooter
This approach aims to create more authentic player experiences and ownership within the game ecosystem.
Rather than relying on a faceless username or gamertag, players' onchain identities are a defining feature of their journey in @Ubisoft's Captain Laserhawk Universe.
