Shatterpoint Season 1 Launches with Free to Play Airdrop Rewards

The wait is over—Shatterpoint Season 1 officially kicks off on September 9, and it’s shaping up to be one of the most exciting events in blockchain gaming this year. Players will be able to play to airdrop and secure a share of the upcoming $POINT token, all while diving into a competitive season filled with leaderboards, PvP battles, NFT bonuses, and new gameplay balancing updates.

Whether you’re a free-to-play gamer or someone looking to maximize earnings with NFTs, this season has plenty of opportunities to climb the ranks and reap the rewards. Let’s break it all down.

What is Shatterpoint?

Shatterpoint is a free-to-play mobile RPG and MOBA hybrid where players collect Shards, craft items, and battle it out in fast-paced 3v3 matches with customizable heroes. Unlike traditional games, it introduces crypto-powered mechanics that reward skillful play with on-chain benefits.

The project has been in development since 2021 and has gone through several phases, including co-development with Big Time Studios and Open Loot. Earlier in 2025, Estoty Games rolled out an Early Access Airdrop Campaign, followed by a Play to Airdrop initiative ahead of the $POINT token generation event (TGE). The whitepaper, published in August, provided fresh details on the play-to-earn mechanics, setting the stage for this skill-driven Season 1 launch.

If you’ve been following the rise of blockchain games, Shatterpoint is one worth keeping on your radar.

What’s New in Shatterpoint Season 1?

Season 1 isn’t just about a new leaderboard—it’s a full suite of features designed to enhance both gameplay and rewards. Here’s what’s arriving on September 9:

• Competitive Leaderboard – Earn Sparks by completing in-game quests and challenges, then climb the ranks to secure token rewards.

• Sparks Farming – Collect Sparks directly from PvP victories by using Charged Crystals.

• NFT Bonuses – Equip NFT cosmetics for style and increased Spark earnings.

• Game Balancing Updates – Adjustments to heroes, abilities, and systems for smoother competitive play.

This combination of progression systems and tokenized incentives sets the stage for a season that rewards both strategy and skill.

Sparks, Tokens, and Rewards Explained

At the heart of Season 1 lies Sparks, temporary in-game airdrop points. Sparks represent your share of the future $POINT token supply. The more Sparks you earn, the bigger your allocation when the TGE happens.

• Leaderboard Rewards – The top 1000 players earn Sparks based on their final season rank.

• PvP Rewards – With a Charged Crystal, Sparks can be farmed from every PvP victory.

• NFT Bonuses – Equip armor or cosmetic NFTs to further boost Spark earnings.

For now, Sparks act as placeholders for $POINT, meaning the earning system you engage with this season will seamlessly transfer over once the token launches.

How to Play to Airdrop in Season 1

Shatterpoint’s play-to-airdrop model caters to both free-to-play players and those who want to invest in NFTs. Here’s how each path works:

Free-to-Play Players

• Climb the leaderboard by completing weekly quests like monster hunts, crafting tasks, and PvP challenges.

• Earn Sparks by ranking in the top 1000.

• Progress is tracked via a dashboard, and while each week has a cap, tasks can be repeated to maximize points.

NFT-Powered Players

• Craft Crystals using a Crystal Forge NFT (available on Open Loot).

• Infuse Crystals with Quantum Dust to make them Charged, enabling Sparks earnings from PvP wins.

• Choose Charge Levels: Short (6 matches), Medium (15 matches), or Long (30 matches).

• Equip Cosmetics from a Cosmetic Printer NFT for style and bonus Sparks.

This dual-approach ensures that everyone can participate, but those who invest strategically in NFTs can unlock significantly greater rewards.

NFTs That Boost Gameplay and Rewards

Unlike many other games where cosmetics are just for looks, Shatterpoint NFTs double as earning multipliers and unlocks for special content.

• Crystal Forge – Required to craft Crystals and enable Spark farming in PvP.

• Cosmetic Printer – Lets you craft cosmetic collectibles that boost Sparks earnings.

• NFT Cosmetics – Stylish hats, armor sets, and rare skins that enhance earnings and may unlock unique boss battles or limited events.

With prices starting as low as $1 for cosmetics, NFT entry points are accessible while still providing tangible in-game benefits.

Why Season 1 Matters for Blockchain Gaming

Shatterpoint Season 1 isn’t just about one game—it represents the growing evolution of skill-based blockchain games. Instead of passive staking or speculative token farming, Shatterpoint rewards active gameplay, competitive success, and strategy.

By blending accessible free-to-play mechanics with optional NFT-enhanced rewards, the game could strike a balance that appeals to both casual gamers and web3 veterans.

It’s also one of the few mobile blockchain games launching on both iOS and Android, making it highly accessible compared to many PC-only crypto titles.

Final Thoughts

With the September 9 launch, Shatterpoint is ready to test whether a play-to-airdrop system can become the next big model in blockchain gaming. Whether you’re chasing leaderboard glory for free or gearing up with Charged Crystals and NFT cosmetics, Season 1 promises a competitive and rewarding experience.

If you’re curious about where blockchain games are headed, Shatterpoint might just offer a glimpse of the future—a future where skill, strategy, and ownership intertwine to create truly engaging digital worlds.
