Engine will release the Essence of the Elements Multiverse quest on January 16, 2026a one-year campaign running until December 18, 2026 that combines play time with tokenized rewards and utility across games. The quest focuses on four elemental seasons and a reward pool of 200,000 ENJpositioning ENJ as an on-chain incentive to develop in-game NFTs.
Structure, schedule and basic mechanics
The mission is divided into four quarterly seasons – Fire, Water, Wind and Earth— starting with Fire from January 16 to March 31, 2026; subsequent seasons follow each other until the campaign ends on December 18, 2026. Players earn an in-game progress meter called “Essence” by completing elemental activities: time spent playing, seasonal quests, defeating designated enemies, or performing well in mini-games. Essence serves as a goal indicator for seasonal prizes and draws.
The central collectibles are elemental patches – magma (fire), coral (water), cloud (wind), and moss (earth).— which can be upgraded to Epic or Legendary levels by collecting Season-specific Essence. The project allocates 200,000 ENJ to Blob rewards throughout the year, distributed as 50,000 ENJ per season. Between 150 and 1,000 Multiverse items will be given away in seasonal draws, and each season gives one player the chance to win an elemental-themed Degen (Emberborne, Tidalborne, Stormborne or Earthborne); The probability of winning is directly related to the accumulated Essence.
Integration of cross-game tools and ecosystems
Players connect their gaming wallets to NFT.io and employ the Multiverse dashboard to track Essence across participating titles. The initial lineup of games includes Lost Relics, Etherscape, The Six Dragons, ENJ Excavators and Into the Multiverse; each season’s roster is established once the season begins to ensure consistency for participants. Multiverse items are designed with cross-game functionality in mind– for example Eternal heat (fire) it can appear as a fire-enchanted sword in The Six Dragons, a cosmetic aura in Etherscape, or a ephemeral burn effect in Lost Relics – allowing the resources you acquire to remain useful beyond a single title.
The program also offers extremely sporadic Degen NFTs backed by significant staking poolsadding a financial layer to collectible drops. Reward distribution and item interoperability rely on Enjin’s blockchain infrastructure, ENJ as the underlying utility token, and the NFT.io marketplace for claims and management.
The Essence of the Elements Quest combines gameplay incentives, token rewards and interoperable NFTs into one year-long initiative which aims to enhance on-chain activity and the token’s utility. For treasuries and traders, the 200,000 ENJ allocation and seasonally determined game schedules ensure predictable reward flows and on-chain issuance schedules; the first operational milestone is the launch of the campaign on January 16, 2026.
