Hello CubeCrafters,
I’d like to suggest something that is very popular in a lot of games - Battle Passes! Cube has been coming out with some themed bundles for a while now, so why not make them into battle passes and keep them interesting for players.
What is a Battle Pass?
A Battle Pass a system where players can earn rewards by completing challenges and leveling up. You earn them by playing games, getting xp and leveling up.
There will be two tracks of the battle-pass offered, Free and Premium pass. The whole pass would be 12 tiers (2 tiers being free and 10 being premium). All players automatically gain XP for the pass from playing and completing challenges/leveling up. A better system of earning XP can be done to ensure consistency across all the minigames!
Reward Examples
From playing and leveling/completing challenges, you can get these rewards:
- New Username color and Lobby Title
- Win effects (can be epic loot)
- Pets (can be epic loot)
- Arrow, flag or Lobby trails (can be epic loot)
- Egg, chest or cage skins (can be loot)
- Shoes and more!
Epic loot adds some twist into the cosmetics like sound effects and/or more visual animations. Something to make them
extra .
Rotation!
Introduce a new battle-pass every 8 weeks with two themes!
There have been a lot of player suggestions made for x themed bundles and such. Can be seasonal too (for example, Back-to-School x Fall season themed battlepass). Every week, refresh the challenges and introduce new ones to keep players engaged and interested in exploring other gamemodes to gain xp for leveling. Optional leaderboards for the sweats out there that love to grind the game!
Example of player suggested themed bundles:
- Weather Bundles by @Reesle
- Primordial Bundle by @Hoshi
- Cat Bundle by @BurgerCat13
etc etc.
How would they work?
The battle-pass will cost the same as a normal permanent rank (
1720 or $10 ) and give the same amounts of VXP as a rank. Out of the 12 tiers, it will be split like this:
Why would this work?
Last Thoughts
Battle passes are quite common and may be seen in many famous games. They are a technique to keep gamers involved and encourage them to play more consistently, and they benefit both the server and the players. They are a superior option to subscription services and loot boxes. There would be no pay-to-win concerns as everyone would benefit from them. Because battlepass material will only be available for a limited time, it is worthwhile to obtain it before it is removed form the store!
If you have anything to add, do let me know below on how to improve this and give your own input on whether you think this would be good or not. :)

- Free pass (everyone gets for free for playing and leveling) - Tier 6 and Tier 12 (2 free cosmetics from each)
- Epic loots are tier 5 and 11 and is something that can be used in any game-mode or any lobby cosmetic.
- Level it by just playing the game and completing challenges that range in difficulty and each tier doubles the XP from the previous tier to unlock the next one.
Why would this work?- Encourages players to explore more games and play consistently
- Gives players something to work towards
- Increases player retention
- Creates consistent revenue for the server and a way to showcase new cosmetics!
