Hamster Kombat, the largest Telegram tap-to-earn crypto game in terms of player base, announced Tuesday through its mini app that the first season of in-game rewards will end on September 20 ahead of next week’s token launch and airdrop.According to the in-game screen, “Season 1 ends on September 20” and that players’ achievements up to that point “will be converted into HMSTR tokens.” Hamster Kombat then encourages players to “hurry up to level up” before the cutoff. The team previously shared which in-game criteria will be used to determine token allocations.In a Telegram community post shared Tuesday, the Hamster Kombat team said that it will take a “snapshot” of players’ in-game earnings and status at 6pm UTC on September 20.

— Hamster Kombat (@hamster_kombat) September 17, 2024Hamster Kombat will launch its HMSTR token on The Open Network (TON) on September 26 and offer an airdrop claim to players. The game has previously claimed to have more than 300 million total players to date, with Telegram app data showing 94 million active players over the last month. That makes it the most-played Telegram game by far.While the Hamster Kombat token launch is widely anticipated by crypto gamers, it’s also seen as potentially problematic for TON itself. TON saw two periods of downtime in late August due to another token claim for a smaller project, prompting concerns that the size of the Hamster Kombat drop could again take down the network.In fact, TON Core developers admitted last week in a Telegram post that the launch of HMSTR a well as Catizen’s CATI token launching on September 20 could lead to “more technical pressures and possibly some unforeseen issues” amid high-profile token drops.GG NewsletterGet the latest web3 gaming news, hear directly from gaming studios and influencers covering the space, and receive power-ups from our partners.
