Solarbots is a social RPG that promises players an immersive gaming experience, offering an ecosystem for players to pick up a vast variety of roles in different factions and use their skills in a fully player-controlled and resource-oriented game economy. As a blockchain-powered Metaverse experience, Solarbots opens opportunities to economic ownership and value creation in a universe for like-minded individuals to meet, team up and experience a captivating story together.

YGG has purchased 400 Solarbots Mk.I combat units for US$80,000 at the time of mint for the YGG community to explore the land of Eld where the Solarbots Metaverse is set.

According to Sarutobi Sasuke, head of partnerships at YGG, ”Solarbots will introduce an ecosystem that rewards guilds like YGG by offering them control over significant shares of the game economy and redistribute rewards to all guild participants.” “The team behind Solarbots has done a great job at incorporating robust tokenomics, and hopes to share a deeper story through their lore-driven game,” he added.

According to Solarbots co-founder Misotsune, “YGG is the first and largest guild to spawn from blockchain gaming. Their prowess and strong morals have allowed them to give a new opportunity and empower many, which aligns with our way of thinking perfectly.”

The Solarbots team hopes to craft a beautiful experience around a compelling and immersive story that depicts the human condition while incorporating a strong social component and multiple ways to earn rewards.

Solarbots are the robots crafted by each faction: Arboria, Illskagaard, and the Lacrean

Empire. In terms of Solarbots customization, the factions offer only visual differences,

allowing players to freely choose based on whichever style they like best. Players will need a team of four Solarbots from one of the three factions to participate in the PVE and PVP game modes. There are several ways to play Solarbots and participate in its game economy, namely through PVE, PVP, Gathering, Crafting, Guilds, and Landlordship.

The main idea behind creating such an ecosystem comes from a token economy that sustains the community, combined with visually appealing customizable assets and engaging gameplay. Players can expect rewards in SOLS (Solstones) and other tokens or NFTs such as crafting recipes or uncut gems when playing these modes.

SOLS are required and burned for engaging in most activities in the game such as upgrading, crafting, rerolling stats, creating sockets in body parts, and maintaining the player housing units of the Solarbots.
In addition to those utilities, SOLS are also used to power homes, cities and while also constituting an integral part of various magic rituals, including but not limited to crafting. The SOLS token can also be used in its native marketplace within the game.

The PVE combat component of Solarbots will focus on strategic gameplay with utility combos offering more than one action within the game. This constitutes the main part of the game’s pre-alpha and will be the only way to experience the game story through the interactions of each faction with the Monsters of the Abyss, which players must defeat in order to gain SOLS.

The Solarbots pre-alpha (without crafting or token economies) is scheduled to be released at the end of Q1 2022. After this launch, Solarbots will introduce a competitive PVP and an open-world mode with a focus on player-owned land.

Its Alpha version, with crafting and token elements, is set to go live in Q4 2022, while its Beta and the eventual version 1 will be shipped in 2023 and onward.
