Epics August 4th 2021 — Weekly Update

This is a weekly update capturing the previous week’s content, upcoming content and the things we are working hard on behind the scenes

End of July Recap

Batiste1 earned the factory new M9 Bayonet Fade Knife in a close community race where he held the top leaderboard position for the Fade 2021 Collection when the leaderboard lock occurred on July 23rd.

The price of bundle & store packs for Cologne Winners and Recap digital collection were reduced by 25% prior to release — due to the difficult odds for unpacking an event Tier 3 s1mple (Record & MVP card). What was your favorite card from the collection?

We also released the FURIA HQ drop with FURIA sigs available on some of the low mint special edition cards.

Epics is committed to transparency and communication. We are focusing on sharing a weekly update with our users and looking at in-app blog solutions for news sharing to the larger userbase.

FURIA Headliners

The second Headliners of the 2021 season is quickly approaching! The content will launch on August 5th. This is your chance to unpack FURIA signature cards! Signatures will be on A1-A3 Golden Ones, Art and Stat Check cards. The Art and Stat Check cards will have replicas signatures. Each Golden One card will be a unique signature.

We have changed the Headliner history cards from showing as “History 1–20” to now showing card names! Let us know what you think of the new change and format of these cards.

The FURIA Headliner Reward deadline for completing sets will be August 19th at 4 PM UTC. All Reward cards will have replica signatures. The individual who is number 1 on the leaderboard will receive the A1 Headliner Winner Signature card.

Physicals — First Edition and Batch B CS:GO

CS:GO boxes that are to be fulfilled out of the UK (non-EU orders) have been released by customs and are in route to our fulfillment location.

We have also continued to follow up with ESL on the status of Epics orders (EU) being fulfilled by them on our behalf. We requested tracking numbers for each shipment so we can share with you! They have advised due to the volume of orders, they will be shipping throughout the month of August.

We will continue to share shipment updates as we receive them and apologize for the continued shipping delays.

NFTs & Blockchain Collectibles

We have received a lot of questions regarding collectible tokenization and when the functionality will return to Epics.

We are committed to having our collectibles on the blockchain and are partnering with ImmutableX on a Layer 2 Ethereum solution without gas fees! We have millions of collectibles minted over many seasons, ultimately leading to a staggered integration. Keep an eye out for future updates as we share our rollout plan!

In Summary

We look forward to the month of August with many big milestones ahead. We cannot wait to see community content involving physicals (who is up for a box battle)? With FURIA Headliners and revised 2021 core releasing, we cannot wait to see what cards and low mints you unpack!

Stay hydrated, safe and healthy everyone!
