The Beacon Speedrun Tournament: What's the Buzz?
The tournament kicked off on September 29th and features a two-day sprint through challenging dungeon courses. The goal? Clock the fastest time and snag some serious rewards. Think speed, strategy, and maybe a little luck!
How to Get in on the Action
To join the fray, you needed a Ronin Waypoint account. Entries opened on the launch day at 14:00 UTC and closed the next day at 19:00 UTC. Proof of your dungeon runs – a screenshot or video – was submitted on Twitter/X using #RoninxThebeacon, alongside an official form. Everyone who participated got the Silver Valkyrie’s Call cosmetic item, and the top 32 earned the Crimson Valkyrie’s Call and token prizes.
Tournament Structure: It's Getting Serious
The top 32 qualifiers advanced to the playoff rounds, which commenced on October 1st. It's a single-elimination format, so every match counts! Early rounds were best-of-one, with the finals going best-of-three. The competition promised to be fierce, with new dungeon layouts keeping everyone on their toes.
RON Prizes: Show Me the Money!
Let's talk about the good stuff. The prizes were pretty generous, with the top players taking home a significant chunk of RON. Exact prize distribution details can be found in the official rules, but let's just say it was worth breaking a sweat.
Ronin Network Exclusive
This tournament was exclusively for Ronin network users. The Beacon previously saw over 200,000 daily active users during its first play-to-airdrop campaign, proving the power of the Ronin ecosystem.
Looking to the Future
Before the tournament, The Beacon had a public playtest via the Epic Games Store, showing off enhancements and new features. And looking ahead, the game is set to launch its inaugural official season in early 2026, introducing new gameplay modes, biomes, and NFT-based goodies.
Final Thoughts
So, another speedrun tournament is in the books. Whether you were competing for glory or just watching the action, it's clear that The Beacon is making waves. With its blend of roguelite and MMO elements, plus the power of the Ronin network, this game has a bright future. Until next time, happy dungeon crawling!
