Nice Gang Launches PvP Combat With Arena Mode in Free-to-Play Mobile RPG Eighth Era

Nice Gang (nicegang.com), the indie game studio bringing free real-world collectible trophies to players through in-game tournaments, today announces the addition of PvP (Player vs. Player) combat to Eighth Era, the squad-based role-playing game co-developed by Perfect Day Games. Marking the official product launch of Eighth Era, the game is now available with a full single player campaign, PvP and PvE modes on iOS and Android devices worldwide.

In the latest update, players will now be able to compete against each other in asynchronous combat once they have reached level 9. Build a dream team unlike any other, master your tactical strategy, and compete for glory on the world stage with a roster of over 50 distinct heroes in the new Eighth Era Arena Mode.

“We are incredibly excited to wrap our soft launch phase and launch Eighth Era fully. The introduction of PvP gives our players one of their most requested features — a chance to compete head-to-head in thrilling battles against each other,” said Jason Wasserman, CEO and Co-founder of Nice Gang. “This new Arena Mode not only adds a deeper level of strategy and competition but also brings our gaming and collectible communities together in a whole new way, giving players even more ways to earn physical collectible trophies each month.”

In addition to the new PvP mode, the Eighth Era update will bring new patch updates to the base game, including:

• PvP Combat in New Arena Mode: Compete head-to-head against other players from around the world in asynchronous combat. Players who reach level 9 will unlock the new Arena Mode and the ability to climb through the Arena Leagues to become the ultimate champion.
• Faction Bonuses: Each new season brings a new set of highlighted factions that will receive big stat bonuses. Take advantage of these bonuses to dominate the Arena Leagues.
• End of Season Rewards: Climb the Arena Leagues to earn massive loot at the end of each Arena Season!
• Compete with Players Worldwide for Physical Collectibles: Win real world collectible trophies by claiming the highest ranks in weekly tournaments - tiered for new, returning, and advanced players.
• More Heroes and More Collectibles to Win in Season Two | Late April: Compete against players from around the world to win freshly minted, limited-edition coins featuring playable season two characters. Players who finish in the top ten get a coin delivered right to their door.
• Additional Patch Updates:
  
  • Exhibit & Task Rewards: Exhibits and Tasks will now offer players even more rewards, with increased loot and better progression materials.
  • Tournament System: Players will now have new ways to score tournament points and a more balanced system to rise through the ranks.
