Pixcape Games is set to launch their Genesis Pass NFT in less than 10 hours, marking a major step for its web3 gaming universe. The mint goes live today, June 25, exclusively on OpenSea. With only 2,222 passes available, this limited drop is expected to grab attention from players and NFT collectors alike.

Genesis Pass Mint Details

The mint will take place on the Ethereum network, with a set price of 0.033 ETH per pass. It rolls out in three phases. First comes the GTD Whitelist phase from 15:00 to 17:00 UTC, followed by the FCFS Whitelist phase from 17:00 to 19:00 UTC. Finally, the public mint opens at 19:00 UTC for anyone eager to join the Pixcape Universe.

WL eligibility is based on points earned during previous Hive Invasion playtests. Players with 12 or more points can mint during the GTD phase, while those with 4 to 11 points are eligible for the FCFS round. All WL spots are directly claimable, with no extra steps needed.

What Is the Pixcape Genesis Pass?

The Genesis Pass is more than just an NFT. It’s a key to the entire Pixcape ecosystem. Holders get early access to new game modes, airdrops, and in-game advantages. This includes guaranteed Hero and Weapon NFT drops, exclusive upgrade packs, and access to rare treasure chests filled with valuable cosmetics and ultra-rare items.

The pass also serves as a long-term gateway to evolving features like player voting, lore-driven quests, and integrations with other blockchain games. It’s designed to grow with the Pixcape Universe and reward early adopters with meaningful in-game utility.

What to Expect with Your Genesis Pass

Genesis Pass holders can expect a series of exclusive perks. First are the guaranteed free Hero and Weapon NFTs. These drops bypass the usual allowlist system and let holders skip the grind. Next are limited-time treasure chests, offering loot not found elsewhere. These will include items like cosmetics, one-time-use boosts, and rare materials.

Holders will also get early access to upcoming missions and test builds. This includes experimental dungeons, PvE trials, and alpha stages of Pixcape titles in the works. Plus, the Genesis Pass lays the foundation for future governance tools, letting players help shape game worlds and storylines as they grow.

Hive Invasion: The Flagship Title

At the heart of Pixcape Games is Hive Invasion, a pixel-art, browser-based MMORPG. Built to run smoothly in web browsers, the game mixes roguelite action with onchain progression. Players fight waves of alien enemies, upgrade their characters, and unlock blockchain-linked achievements.

Backed by the Somnia Network, Hive Invasion has already gained traction with over 27,700 players taking part in its second playtest. During that round, players logged over 805,000 minutes of gameplay. The game also recorded more than 126 million enemies destroyed, over 504,000 skill upgrades, and 112,000 skills explored.
