Earlier this year, firms like Square Enix, Ubisoft, and Electronic Arts have been hinting at moving in the NFT direction. Now Ubisoft has announced it has launched a platform that will leverage the Tezos (<a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XTZ\">XTZ<\/a>) blockchain to utilize NFT technology.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIntroducing Ubisoft Quartz,\u201d the gaming company tweeted on Tuesday. \u201cWe\u2019re bringing the first energy-efficient NFTs playable in a AAA game to Ghost Recon: Breakpoint. Try it in the beta from December 9 with three free cosmetic drops.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Ubisoft is well known for its franchise gaming titles like \u201cAssassin\u2019s Creed,\u201d \u201cPrince of Persia,\u201d the Tom Clancy game franchise, \u201cRabbids Invasion,\u201d and \u201cJust Dance.\u201d The Ubisoft Quartz website notes that the platform is a \u201cplace where you can acquire Digits, the first Ubisoft NFTs (non-fungible tokens), playable in an HD game and rely[ing] on an energy-efficient technology.\u201d The company adds:<\/p>\n<p>Digits will allow you to complete your missions in style.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Tezos Native Token Skyrockets Following Ubisoft\u2019s Announcement, Ubisoft\u2019s Digit NFTs Aim to Be Unique<\/h2>\n<p>The web portal shows a few items that could help a player compete in style with NFT items like an M4A1 tactical rifle, an enhanced helmet, and enhanced pants, all of which are limited edition. Meanwhile, after Ubisoft revealed the NFT platform and disclosed the company was working with Tezos, the crypto asset <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XTZ\">XTZ<\/a> skyrocketed in value during the last 24 hours. At the time of writing on Wednesday, December 8, <a class=\"lar-automated-link\" href=\"https:\/\/markets.bitcoin.com\/crypto\/XTZ\">XTZ<\/a> is up 26% in USD value.<\/p>\n<p>The three NFT drops for Tom Clancy\u2019s Ghost Recon game are free, the web portal details, but only Ghost Recon Breakpoint Ubisoft Connect PC players can acquire and play with Digits. \u201cEvery single Digit features a serial number,\u201d Ubisoft says. \u201cThis serial number is displayed on the collectible and on the in-game item. Each Digit will also be tied to the player names of all its previous and current owners.\u201d Ubisoft\u2019s NFT platform description also notes:<\/p>\n<p>The combination of a serial number and ownership history makes each Digit truly unique.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>What do you think about Ubisoft entering into the world of NFT technology with Tezos and the Ubisoft Quartz gaming platform?
