Despite Cheeze Wizards’ successful pre-sale, Dapper Labs was notably quiet about when its battle royale game would actually launch.

But now we have the all-important date; Monday 14 October.

The first tournament will kick off with The Gathering, in which players can summon more Wizards, with a cut from each transaction added to the competition prize pool.

Currently that stands at 600 ETH (over $125,000 at current prices).

One week later, the next phase of the tournament – called The Beat and Greet – starts, when you can start practising duels with your Wizards.

Two weeks later, it’s time for the Championship – the business end of the tournament. Players will duel until only one Wizard remains to collect the loot.
