Celestial Claim owners can enter early based on the rarity of their claim. Monday, January 29th, 8 am PT is for Ancients; Monday, January 29th, 12 pm PT is Legendaries. Monday, January 29th, 4 pm PT is for Epics, while Tuesday, January 30th, 8 am PT is for Rares.

The primary early sale for Celestial Claims is over but there is chance to acquire pre-claimed Celestial Claim tokens. This is on the OpenSea secondary market or directly on GalaChain through NFT Harbor.

Gameplay Overview

Claiming a Celestial Body is irreversible, requiring careful consideration. Understanding the complexities of Celestial Claims is essential. These tokens grant the right to claim specific Celestial Bodies in-game. This represents different rarities and resource mining potentials. Uncommon, Rare, Epic, and Legendary Celestial Bodies offer varying advantages.

The galactic landscape has three clusters (quadrants) of Celestial Claims—Ember’s Grace, Aurora’s Edge, and The Pale. Claiming a Celestial Body in-game involves bridging the tokenized claim to GalaChain. Then, selecting a spot on the Galaxy Map, and choosing the corresponding Claim option.

Once the Celestial Claim token is spent, a GalaChain-minted deed for the chosen Celestial Body is issued. This allows transferability within the ecosystem or bridging to Ethereum for trading on the another market. Echoes of Empire launches in a few days, promising an exploration of the galaxy that players eagerly anticipate.
