A cryptocurrency fraud is said to be modeling on Grand Theft Auto 6 that will debut on Steam this week, although Valve’s promise that they do not allow NFT or Blockchain games to exist on the platform. Paradise has been advertised as an action game located in a sunny city that will allow players to drive a car, shoot enemies and make money. But the currency in its game is based on Blockchain technology and some reports that this is a fraud based in Russia, does not allow cryptocurrency investors to withdraw money. When asked why the game was allowed on the platform, Valve has repeatedly ignored to comment.
Paradise will be released in Early Access on April 2, Ultra Games developers said. A recent introduction shows a player who checks for guns, walks through a car -filled garage and navigates a world divided into load screens made by AI created art designed to look like the load screen of the Grand Theft Auto automatic series. The previous introductions are proud that you can talk to any NPC with AI technology.
“Play with your friends, participate in shootings, racing cars, complete daily tasks and reach the peak of life”, read a screech. “Make money and buy what you want, from real estate to fancy clothes.” Creators are proud that the game is in the 200 games listed in Steam’s most desired list. There may be many Steam users who do not know about the game’s false marketing features and history.
Paradise uses a currency called $ parameta based on blockchain technology and can be invested through a third party application. Some investors in the cryptocurrency claim they became uncomfortable, as we reported in January. The developers also declared the mistake of working with streamers such as Ninja and Pokimane, and including the use of without the license of a Lamborghini and other cars in previous introduction segments.
Along with a lot of Slop and use a lot of non -real market assets, the game has enough red flags that many YouTubers investigate the company behind it, with a discovery that the Hong Kong address listed by the company is fake and eventually discovered that it really rely on somewhere.
“The versions of the game for Steam, Xbox and PlayStation Store will not include cryptocurrencies, ensuring no limits for users on these platforms,” the developers rejected their site. Unfortunately, no one can verify the request of the developer until the game is released. But even if a means to buy money is not present in the final release, it will not limit the game that shifts the player to the third cryptocurrency application necessary for players to earn and spend in the game in the game. One action, itself, can be harmful to users, even if Valve’s service terms do not specially prohibit this. Because the game can still serve as a Trojan horse to hook people into an electronic fraud.
Above all, the document confirms that cryptocurrencies will not be in the game with all other misleading statements, as shown by the video creator Jetro, one of the previous YouTubers who have investigated the game. For example, developers claim that the use of minimap from GTA 5 is allowed, because “the GTA 5 map is based on the real layout of Los Angeles, not an intellectual property”. To avoid suspicion: The GTA 5 map is not a 1: 1 copy of Los Angeles and Rockstar owns the rights to that map.
Steam banned all games with NFT and cryptocurrencies by 2021. Paradise developers have edited the Steam page of the game a few times since it appeared for the first time, such as removing the introductory segment mentioning cryptocurrencies. It is not clear whether the valve can contact the developers. I asked Valve to comment on this game many times and did not receive feedback.
The game was also released on the Epic Store, but only after it was deleted once and was reloaded as “Paradise XRPL”, with a store site that made it clear that it was a NFT game, along with its common question on its Crypto Gubbins, asserting that it was good for the game. “The introduction of cryptocurrency notification codes in Paradise XRPL helps boost the product by allowing reasonable transactions to buy in the game, facilitating the trading between players and granting access to exclusive content.” I also asked Epic Games to comment and will tell you if we learn more.
