Cantina Royale Joins BoomLand for a New Tactical Shooter Era

Cantina Royale, a beloved tactical shooter in the blockchain gaming space, is officially integrating into the BoomLand ecosystem. This transition follows a development pause due to the tragic passing of its CEO, Alex, in June 2024. Now, BoomLand has stepped in to revive the game, ensuring continuity through a 1:1 NFT swap and an airdrop of $BOOM tokens for $CRT holders. Let’s dive into what this means for the community and the future of Cantina Royale.

BoomLand’s Vision for Cantina Royale

BoomLand, the team behind Hunters On-Chain, has admired Cantina Royale for its polished mechanics, competitive gameplay, and dedicated community. Recognizing the challenges the game faced after its CEO’s passing, BoomLand initiated discussions to preserve its value and momentum.

"This is the result of deep respect, strategic alignment, and a shared belief in what Cantina Royale can become," the companies stated in a joint announcement on March 31, 2025.

With BoomLand’s leadership, Cantina Royale is poised for a major revival, leveraging new resources, technical expertise, and a broader player base.

What Players Can Expect from the Transition

To ensure a smooth integration, Cantina Royale servers were taken offline on March 28 at 13:00 UTC. When the game relaunches, players can look forward to:

• Gameplay Enhancements – Expect refinements in mechanics, balance updates, and new features to enhance competitive play.

• Stronger Community Engagement – BoomLand plans to foster deeper player interaction through AMAs and dedicated communication channels.

• Expanded Play-to-Earn Opportunities – A more rewarding in-game economy is being developed, leveraging BoomLand’s expertise in blockchain games.

In the meantime, Cantina Royale players are invited to explore Hunters On-Chain, where they will receive special BoomLand assets to help them get started.

NFT and Token Migration: What You Need to Know

To protect and enhance the value of existing Cantina Royale assets, BoomLand has outlined two key migration mechanisms:

1:1 NFT Swap

Holders of Cantina Royale NFTs will be able to swap them for BoomLand NFTs on a one-to-one basis. The rarity system will remain compatible to ensure players retain in-game utility and value.

$BOOM Airdrop for $CRT Holders

To reward long-time supporters, BoomLand will distribute $BOOM tokens to $CRT holders at a 1:7 ratio (1 $BOOM per 7 $CRT). The claim window will be open for six months, with more details on the process expected soon.

Community Support and Transparency

BoomLand understands that transitions like this require clear communication and player trust. To address concerns and keep the community informed, they are setting up:

• A dedicated communication channel for updates and support.

• An AMA session where the BoomLand team will introduce themselves, explain the integration process, and answer community questions.
