Stormtrooper NFT announced; can be played in the upcoming Web3 Game
Have you ever wanted a Bored Ape Yacht Club profile picture, but as one of the Stormtroopers from Star Wars? You can finally get one thanks to these upcoming officially licensed Original Stormtrooper NFTs, which are also advertised to be playable or usable in an upcoming Web3 game.
Helsinki-based developer and publisher Supremacy Games is teaming up with Web3 specialists Tyranno Studios to release an officially licensed Original Stormtrooper NFT collection. These NFTs are officially licensed by Shepperton Design Studios, the creators of the Original Stormtrooper. NFT will be launched on the Ethereum blockchain on October 27, consisting of 10,000 NFTs.
Supremacy Games is the licensee responsible for the Stormtrooper NFT collection and has partnered with Tyranno Studios to handle the initial sales. It is announced that NFT holders will be able to use their Stormtroopers NFT in a yet to be announced game. NFT holders will also get access to future drops based on other Shepperton designs.
“When the first Stormtroopers were first produced, nearly half a century ago, Web3 technology would have seemed like something out of a Sci-Fi movie, says Supremacy Games CEO Jari Pauna. “Now, thanks to our deal with Shepperton Design Studios, fans of the Original Stormtrooper can own their very own digital version of this uniquely recognizable character.”
Andrew Ainsworth of Shepperton Design Studios still reviews all designs for original Stormtrooper products today, ensuring high levels of accuracy and authenticity for everything produced under license, including an extensive range of products available around the world, which will soon include this new set of NFTs.
“We are happy to be helping Supremacy and Shepperton Design Studios the iconic Original Stormtrooper designs to fans of the franchise and present them in an entirely new way for a new demographic,” said Tyranno Studios Chief Gaming Officer Michael Rubinelli. “The addition of future utility in an upcoming game makes this decline even more remarkable.”
Shepperton Design Studios produce high quality licensed helmets, armour, props and authentic replicas of the Stormtrooper costume first produced in 1976 by costume designer Andrew Ainsworth. While Shepperton Design Studios has the license to produce authentic replicas, it should be noted that the original Stormtrooper NFT collection does not appear to be directly licensed by either Lucasfilm or Disney. The original Stormtrooper NFTs are based on Shepperton Design helmets and armour. It is also noteworthy and important to remind our readers that while the Original Stormtrooper NFT Collection is announced to be useful in future games, such a game has not yet been released nor has it been announced. It is unknown at what stage this future game is in terms of development.
