One of the most debated aspects of Midnight Society was its Web3 integration. While many feared pay-to-win blockchain mechanics, the studio aimed to use NFTs strictly for cosmetic items.

1. The “Founders Pass” System

  • Midnight Society launched 10,000 Founders Pass NFTs, granting early access and exclusive content.
  • Holders could test game builds before public release and provide direct feedback to developers.

2. Weapon and Character NFT Customization

  • Limited-edition weapon skins and character outfits were NFT-based, allowing players to buy/sell them.
  • Unlike some blockchain games, no pay-to-win mechanics were attached to these NFTs.

3. No Cryptocurrency, Just Digital Ownership

  • Midnight Society avoided in-game cryptocurrency and tokenomics, focusing only on NFT-based cosmetics.
  • The marketplace allowed players to sell skins for real value without impacting gameplay balance.

While some fans supported this vision, the gaming community remained divided, leading to slower adoption. After Midnight Society’s shutdown, its blockchain elements were abandoned.
