Ethereum Game Cross the Ages to Introduce Watch Dogs NFT Cards in Ubisoft Partnership

Ubisoft’s partnership with Cross The Ages first began as a strategic investment, when the publisher giant participated in a $12 million investment round in March 2022. Later that year Kingdom Hearts publisher Square Enix also became a strategic investor in the game.
Ubisoft is now on the cusp of releasing its first in-house NFT title, the multiplayer turn-based RPG, Champions Tactics: Grimoria Chronicles. It teased the game with an event back in December that let early supporters mint playable Ethereum-based avatars/figurines.
