What is Mini Royale? Mini Royale: Nations (MRN) is a community-owned, skill-based shooting game that offers different PvP and PvE game modes for every type of player. The core shooting mechanics are built on a land control-oriented social strategy mechanism, which emphasizes teamwork, alliances, and social interactions. The game's economic system rewards social behavior and aims to be a game built by the player community, providing endless experiences. Faraway, the development studio of Mini Royale, recently completed a $21 million Series A funding round, led by Alameda Research and Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from a16z, Sequoia Capital, Pantera Capital, Jump Capital, and Solana. The raised funds will be used to integrate the Solana blockchain into their first-person shooter game "Mini Royale," which is also the first game to integrate FTXPay and Solana NFT simultaneously. Earlier this year, Faraway completed a seed funding round of over $8 million, led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from a16z, Sequoia Capital, Pantera Capital, Jump Capital, and Solana.

What are the current uses of these NFTs?
MRN Premium NFT Full Rights List: From now until the end of Season 1, the game will have two types of NFTs:
- S1 Premium NFT = Limited supply of 10,000 unique Viking & Soldier characters, which can only be obtained through minting and the secondary market.
- S1 Loot = Different from the Viking & Soldier series, loot can be obtained through in-game Battle Pass rewards and Seasonal Quests.
- NFT HODL Benefit #1: Loot Raffle - All S1 loot holders will participate in a raffle, with each loot NFT having one raffle ticket. The winning wallet will receive an airdrop of a premium NFT.
- NFT HODL Benefit #2: Variant Breeding with S1 Premium NFTs - Premium NFT characters from different seasons can be bred into variants. After 5 generations, the variants will evolve into their final versions, obtaining special transformation skins of that character.
- NFT HODL Benefit #3: Battle Pass Acceleration - Holding premium NFTs will provide 3 levels of Battle Pass acceleration:
- Level 3: Holding 1 premium NFT
- Level 2: Holding 2-4 premium NFTs
- Level 1: Holding 5+ premium NFTs
Note: NFTs that are not in the wallet (e.g., listed on the market) cannot activate the acceleration qualification.
- NFT HODL Benefit #4: Firearm Airdrop - If you hold S1 premium NFTs throughout the season, you will receive a firearm skin NFT airdrop corresponding to the number of premium NFTs you hold. The firearm airdrops received by all premium NFTs are the same (e.g., the same type of blind box), without differentiation based on NFT quality. Note: NFTs that are not in the wallet (e.g., listed on the market) will not receive the airdrop.
- NFT HODL Benefit #5: $CHEDDAR Airdrop - $CHEDDAR will be distributed in the first half of 2022 and will be airdropped to holders of S1 premium NFTs. If you hold S1 premium NFTs throughout the season, you will receive a $CHEDDAR airdrop corresponding to the number of premium NFTs you hold. The specific amount of $CHEDDAR airdrop for each NFT is yet to be determined, but all premium NFTs will receive the same amount of $CHEDDAR, without differentiation based on NFT quality. Note: NFTs that are not in the wallet (e.g., listed on the market) will not receive the airdrop.
- And one more thing... We will announce the final top-secret NFT HODL benefits after Season 1 begins.
Are there any tokens? How can I buy tokens? There are two on-chain tokens ($ROYALE and $CHEDDAR), please refer to the whitepaper for details. The tokens are not yet listed, so they cannot be purchased at the moment. Be cautious of scams. The token issuance time is not yet determined, but it is expected to be in the first quarter of 2022. One of the early ways to obtain $CHEDDAR has been confirmed: through airdrops to holders of premium NFTs, with more NFTs held resulting in more airdrops.
Mini Royale is an on-chain shooting game, similar to well-known games like "CrossFire" and "CS." We know that "CrossFire" and "CS" have achieved impressive annual revenues of nearly one billion US dollars. Mini Royale will be launched on the high-speed Solana blockchain, backed by top-tier investment institutions, and combined with token mechanisms and innovative gameplay such as NFTs. We believe it will also deliver a perfect performance.
