NFT Battle Miners, a browser-based sci-fi blockchain MMO on the WAX blockchain, is kicking off its first Shadow Depths season with more than $10k in prizes on Saturday, August 12th, at 6 PM UTC.

Titled The New Era, this upcoming season comes with its own Season Pass NFT, with a limited sale of Season Passes set to commence today, August 10th, at 6 PM UTC with a price of $20 per NFT. A total of 100 Season Passes are included in this limited sale. Another limited sale is making its way tomorrow, August 11th, at 6 PM UTC, featuring 200 NFTs for the price of $30 per Season Pass. After that, an open sale will take place on Saturday, August 12th at 5 PM UTC, an hour before the start of the season, for $35 each.

As for prizes, $5000 in WAXP is set to be given to players who mine highest amount of resource in caves, while another $5000+ in NBM prizes will be awarded throughout the season to those who are “the bravest, the fastest, the most efficient, and more!”

If you had a clone that was at least level 3 in the alpha or beta, you’ll automatically be whitelisted to purchase a Season Pass 1 minute before non-whitelisted players.

Relevant links to buying a Season Pass can be found in the team’s Medium post here, which also contains a link to the Shadow Depths page. Previously, Shadow Depths was in open beta from June 30th to July 21st, giving players a free-to-play opportunity to explore Arcadian caves in search of various resources while avoiding tough monsters on the way.
