Dear Voxies Community,
It's Steve here and I hope everyone is wrapping up their year healthy, happy and excited for the holidays! As 2024 draws to a close at AlwaysGeeky Games, we find ourselves in a great place as we approach a new year with Voxies.
I wanted to take a moment to personally connect with you and share some exciting updates about the Champions Tournament and the future of Voxie Tactics.
In recent weeks, we’ve been preparing for the release of Voxie Tactics on Mobile! This is super exciting for us and represents a major milestone for everyone this year.
We’ve had a chance to play as a team and I must admit, it is so much fun playing Voxie Tactics this way! We’re all excited for community members to start playing with us; it's truly a levelled up experience when you are able to play anywhere and on the go!
Starting today, we plan to roll Mobile out in test phases to our Voxies community! This will be released as a Closed Beta through special invitation.
We're moving fast with the official mobile release of Voxie Tactics, working to bring our game to the App Store and Google Play as soon as possible. The Closed Beta release coming today is another step in making it available to players worldwide!
If you are keen to be one of the first to sign up, you can now register to participate in the Voxie Tactics Mobile Closed Beta via the official registration form.
As we continue on with the final days of the Champions Tournament and explore the new mechanics and features that have been launched, we look ahead to modifications we want to make to improve Voxie Tactics next year and beyond.
I want to take this moment to open up the hood and give you a view into the new goals we have set towards improving different aspects of our ecosystem in 2025. More on that next!
I’d also like to use this letter to speak more on VOXEL rewards and highlight modifications being made that we know are critical to our economy and its sustainability. This is one area that I am personally very passionate about.
As the tournament comes to a close, I want to provide you with some key updates as it relates to what comes next:
The Champions Tournament will officially end on December 17th, 2024, at which point the final leaderboard results for the Pro Arena and the Extreme Arena will be captured for evaluation
We will announce the final list of winners and their positions on the leaderboards during the week of January 20th, 2025
Results and Prize distribution will also commence during the week of January 20th, 2025
Additionally, we expect to see leftover VOXEL rewards from the prize pool due to tournament disqualifications. The excess reward pool will also be allocated among qualified players and distributed the week of January 20th, 2025
As a friendly reminder, Champions Chests will no longer be rewarded in battles after the tournament. Not to worry, players can still open Champions Chests on the Voxies Marketplace
As the Champions Tournament concludes, we’re happy to follow it up with an exciting Winter Forge update expected to go live beginning December 17th, 2024.
During the Winter Forge event, the forge will feature a collection of new winter gear for your Voxie Teams including winter themed items such as a Puffy Coat Chest Piece, Ski Goggles Accessory and a Snow Man Pet.
In addition, for the duration of the Winter Forge event, we’re introducing Ice Cube Loot Boxes that may appear in the middle of battles, offering you all a chance at earning exclusive rewards.
Stay tuned for our Winter Forge update, which is coming next week!
This Champions Tournament has been an exciting event that allowed us to explore new features and modify many different aspects of our game. One of our big goals was to enhance play by introducing new ways for players to interact in our ecosystem and strengthen Voxie Tactics' overall tokenomics.
For example, we made a significant stride in moving away from a VOXEL token farming model and the playstyle that favours that. In the long run, we are committed to actions that contribute to a broader ecosystem, ones that foster competitive play and favour strategic team setups.
Additionally, we set up the tournament in such a way to discourage win-trading and ensure that the rewards that are won and sent out to winners will go to players and owners that played the game with this competitive and strategic approach in mind!
We have learned lots! I have personally loved discussing many of these topics with our community and players in Discord, and also hearing all your feedback and suggestions during this time.
Thank you to everyone that was vocal and provided information, suggestions, questions and a generally engaging conversation while this event was ongoing.
Here are some of the actions we learned from:
After the Champions Tournament concludes, players who win matches will experience a revamped VOXEL reward system, which will go live on December 17th, 2024.
Overall, the higher the Player Rank and Voxie Team Rarity, the more Direct VOXEL Rewards, VOXEL Bonus Bags, and Voxie Items can be won.
In the new year and coming in 2025 we have tons of exciting new features planned for release! We have hinted at new game modes and different ways to play and earn and this is going to be expanded in 2025.
Stay tuned for these exciting developments as we continue to build a game that's fun to play and a delight to explore and experience!
As we close out 2024, I want to thank you once again for being a part of the Voxie Tactics community. Your passion and dedication drive us to work towards providing you with the best possible gaming experience.
We're excited about the future of Voxie Tactics. Let's continue to celebrate competitive play, strategy, and the joy of gaming. Let's make it a great 2025 and as always, see you all on the Voxies Battlefield!
Happy Holidays and Best Wishes for 2025,
Steve and the AlwaysGeeky Games Team
