The web3 gaming space takes an exciting new turn as nWay, a subsidiary of Animoca Brands, partners with Yuga Labs to create Wreck League, a competitive combat game. Wreck League comes with a revolutionary concept, equipping players with the ability to build, own, and battle with a set of Mech fighters.
This game boasts a stunning rendition of crispy graphic design and positions itself as the future of esports and offering a clear edge over traditional games. Players can construct their Mech fighters, engage them in battles, and win on-chain prizes. Notably, the inaugural season of Wreck League will delve into the deep wells of Yuga Labs, a renowned web3 brand.
Wreck League Bridges Web2 and Web3 Gaming Space
Wreck League boasts a dual-focus design, featuring both web2 and web3 versions. Tachoon Kim, the CEO of nWay, explains, “Wreck League is a hybrid web3 and web2 project. Our aim is to unite the communities and players, leveraging the creative potential of the web3 community to continuously enhance the game’s content.”

Game Mechanics
Creators, owners, and players in the game’s community can team up to compete in league events. High-performance Mechs can be built from 10 individual Mech Parts NFTs, which allow for continuous customization. Currently, there are over 1.5 quadrillion possible unique combinations. To add excitement to the gameplay, rare Yugaverse Mechs will be available. Creators who aspire to participate in high-level tournaments are expected to team up with skilled players. To bridge the gap between the burgeoning web3 sphere and the traditional gaming world, a free-to-play (F2P) version of Wreck League will be made available.
Wreck League aims to develop an active community by introducing the power of real-time multiplayer PvP gaming, attracting new users, and encouraging existing players to invite their friends. Yat Siu, the co-founder of Animoca Brands, is optimistic about Wreck League’s impending impact on the esports industry. He said, “Wreck League marks the culmination of two years of dedicated development by nWay, one of the best real-time, cross-play fighting game studios in the industry. Incorporating the Bored Ape Yacht Club, and Otherside universe as well as utilizing ApeCoin, Wreck League…has incredible potential to become a significant esports title due to its competitive multiplayer system.”
Owners of Mech NFTs can create non-NFT copies of their Mech for sale in the web2 game’s store, and original Mech NFT holders will receive a portion of the revenue generated. The web3 version is exclusively accessible to Mech NFT holders who can participate in a 2-week leaderboard tournament beginning with the Mech Mint event. Players can earn points for participating in battles, and the points awarded will be dependent on the game’s outcome: victory or defeat. Wreck League will reward the first 30,000 players with a wide range of gifts, including 1-of-1 NFTs, mech sets, legendary boxes, and mech parts.
Come September, the first-ever edition of Wreck League will go live, incorporating four Yuga Labs collections: Bored Ape Yacht Club, Mutant Ape Yacht Club, Bored Ape Kennel Club, and Otherside Kodas.
Speaking about the recent synergy with Wreck League, Spencer Tucker, Yuga Labs’ chief gaming officer, stated: “We are thrilled for nWay to join The noncanonical Extended Yugaverse. Building a thriving, interoperable ecosystem is at the heart of web3. Wreck League’s use of Yuga’s collections charts that course, and we are excited to see them work towards delivering a compelling gaming experience and additional utility for holders of these collections.
