GODS is the token of Gods Unchained, a digital trading card game where players own their cards as NFTs and can trade them outside the game. The supply is capped at 500 million GODS. Holders use it for in-game activity, staking rewards and governance. The latest news is the Reckoning expansion. Coverage of its pre-release announcement says it went on sale on 13 October 2026, and that its cards are the first in the game sold as tradable NFT packs. The biggest structural change came earlier. In June 2025 the game moved from Immutable X to Immutable zkEVM, and holders had to bridge their GODS tokens themselves.
The latest: Reckoning expansion (October 2026)
According to eGamers.io (3 October 2026), which cites the studio's official collector's guide:
- On sale: 13 October 2026. The pack sale lasts four weeks and closes on 10 November 2026.
- Size: 87 packable cards: 27 Common, 21 Rare, 21 Epic and 18 Legendary. The set has no Mythics. Each of the six god domains (Death, Deception, Light, Magic, Nature, War) gets 12 cards, and 15 cards are Neutral.
- NFT packs: This is the first time packs themselves are NFTs. The guide says they "are NFTs you can hold, trade, or open whenever you're ready."
- Pack tiers: Booster at $1.99, Premium at $19.99, Shiny at $199.99 and a new Mega Shiny tier at $249.99.
- Variants: There are twelve one-of-one alternate-art versions of existing Legendary cards. Nine come from purchasable packs. The other three are earned through Battle Pass, Sealed and Conquest rewards.
- Battle Pass Season 19 started the same day, with chances to earn GODS.
Every detail in this section comes from one outlet's pre-release coverage. We could not open the studio's collector's guide directly. Two eGamers articles disagree on what the Premium pack guarantees.
The set before it was Age of Ascent, a smaller expansion. eGamers.io reported that it was due to launch at 00:00 UTC on 21 October 2025 with 24 cards, including six Mythic variants.
How GODS works
Supply and allocation
The supply is capped at 500,000,000 GODS. The token-unlock tracker Tokenomist lists this allocation:
| Category | Share of supply |
|---|---|
| Play-to-earn rewards | 34.00% |
| Gods Unchained reserve | 25.00% |
| Community and ecosystem fund | 20.50% |
| Token sale | 7.00% |
| Community allocation | 7.00% |
| Token foundation | 6.50% |
As of 25 October 2026, Tokenomist shows 448,437,492 GODS in circulation, about 89.69% of supply, and a release schedule running into 2027. The same page also calls the token "fully unlocked", so treat the unlock figures as approximate. The live article had cited a 20.5% "rewards pool". By this breakdown, 20.5% is the community and ecosystem fund. Play-to-earn rewards are a separate 34%.
What the token is used for
GODS started as an ERC-20 token on Ethereum. Third-party guides describe three main uses:
- Card minting and in-game purchases. GODS is spent in the game economy, including on creating NFT cards.
- Staking rewards for eligible holders (rules below).
- Governance votes on the game's ecosystem.
Staking on Immutable zkEVM
The official staking FAQ says the programme "is now exclusively on Immutable zkEVM". To be eligible, a wallet needs:
- Any amount of GODS in a supported Immutable zkEVM wallet. The FAQ says there is "no minimum".
- At least one qualifying action in the period:
- play one ranked match, - buy a pack from the most recent active sale, or - buy or sell a Gods Unchained card on a marketplace.
Rewards come from "a fixed maximum pool of tokens". Each wallet's share is proportional to its share of all GODS held by eligible wallets. Snapshots are taken weekly and rewards are distributed monthly, but holders have to claim them. Unclaimed rewards from the old Immutable X programme were forfeited.
Does your GODS count towards staking rewards?
Answer three questions to see where your wallet stands under the staking rules described in the official FAQ.
Are your GODS tokens in a supported Immutable zkEVM wallet? (Any amount counts; the FAQ says there is no minimum.)
- Yes, they are on Immutable zkEVM → next question
- No, they are still only on Immutable X → Not counted yet
In this period, did the wallet do at least one qualifying action: play one ranked match, buy a pack from the most recent active sale, or buy or sell a Gods Unchained card on a marketplace?
- Yes, at least one → next question
- No, none of these → Holding alone is not enough
Rewards are distributed monthly but have to be claimed. Have you claimed the rewards distributed to this wallet?
- Yes, claimed → Meets the stated conditions
- No, not yet → Eligible, rewards still to claim
GODS held only on Immutable X does not count towards current staking eligibility. Tokens were not migrated automatically in June 2025; holders had to bridge them through the Immutable Passport dashboard, the Immutable toolkit or a third-party bridge.
The FAQ requires at least one qualifying action in the period as well as holding GODS on Immutable zkEVM. Without one, the wallet is not eligible for that period.
Snapshots are taken weekly and rewards are distributed monthly, but holders have to claim them. Unclaimed rewards from the old Immutable X programme were forfeited.
The wallet meets the conditions the FAQ lists. Each wallet's share of the fixed maximum pool is proportional to its share of all GODS held by eligible wallets, so the amount depends on what others hold.
This follows the staking FAQ's eligibility rules only: it cannot check your wallet, does not estimate reward amounts or token value, and is not investment advice.
The move to Immutable zkEVM (June 2025)
The studio's migration guide set out this schedule:
- 2 June 2025: the game went offline for about a day while assets were processed.
- 2–6 June 2025: tradable NFTs (cards, trinkets, boards and card backs) moved to Immutable zkEVM in batches, oldest mints first. Shine, quality and mint numbers were kept. Players did not need to do anything.
- 5 June 2025: the GODS bridge opened. Tokens were not migrated automatically. Holders had to bridge them through the Immutable Passport dashboard, the Immutable toolkit or a third-party bridge.
A separate staking post says reward distribution was paused between 29 May and 11 June 2025. The first epoch calculated on zkEVM paid triple the usual GODS rewards to make up for the pause.
What this means for holders: GODS still held only on Immutable X does not count towards current staking eligibility, which requires a zkEVM wallet.
Background
- Studio: Immutable, an Australian company, develops the game. The studio was previously called Fuel Games, and Robbie Ferguson is named as a Gods Unchained co-founder (The Block, August 2019).
- Leadership: In August 2019 the studio hired Chris Clay, former game director of Magic: The Gathering Arena, as game director (The Block, 8 August 2019). An undated App Store listing names Daniel Paez and Chris Clay as the game's leaders. We could not confirm the current team.
- Scaling: The game's blog dates the Immutable X reveal to 8 May 2020. Immutable X ran the card economy until the 2025 migration.
- Distribution: The game launched on the Epic Games Store on 21 June 2023 (Decrypt). A mobile release on Android and iOS was planned for later that year. We did not verify its current mobile status.
Risks
- Depends on players. The cards and GODS only have value while people keep playing and trading. If the player base shrinks, market liquidity shrinks with it.
- Setup. Holders need a zkEVM wallet, a manual bridge and reward claims. A missed step can cost rewards, as forfeited Immutable X rewards show.
- Supply. About 10% of supply was still listed as locked on 25 October 2026. More tokens entering circulation can dilute holders.
This article explains a token and is not investment advice. Prices of game tokens can fall sharply.
Limitations: the Reckoning details rest on a single outlet's pre-release coverage, and the allocation and circulating figures come from a third-party tracker, not the official whitepaper.
