How to Use Off The Grid with GUNZ Mainnet in 2026

Off The Grid is a free-to-play third-person battle royale with optional blockchain features. GUNZ is the network Gunzilla Games built for those features: eligible game items can be represented as NFTs and traded through supported services. You do not need to buy crypto or use a wallet just to try the core game.

“Mainnet” means GUNZ is operating as a live blockchain network rather than only as a test environment. It does not mean the entire game runs on-chain. Matchmaking, combat and much of the moment-to-moment game experience remain part of the game’s own software and services. The chain is relevant to supported digital assets and transactions.

Keep three things separate:

• Off The Grid: the battle royale game.
• GUNZ: the blockchain network used for eligible asset activity.
• GUN: the network token used for transactions such as network fees.

The practical takeaway: play first if you want to assess the game. Explore GUNZ only if you specifically want to manage or trade eligible items, and check the current in-game requirements before making a transaction.

The blockchain part applies to eligible items, not automatically to every reward, weapon, cosmetic or piece of progression in the game. An NFT is a token recorded on a blockchain that can represent an item. It is not the same as the game itself, nor does it guarantee that the item will work in other games or services.

Before treating an item as an asset you can freely use or sell, confirm all of the following in the game or supported marketplace:

1. Is this particular item eligible to be minted or traded?
2. Does the item screen identify it as an NFT, or as a standard in-game item?
3. Which wallet or account controls it, and can you recover access if you lose credentials?
4. Where can it be traded, and what rules apply to listings and transfers?
5. Does the game still need to support the item for it to be useful?

A blockchain record can help establish that a wallet controls a token, but the practical value of an item still depends on game support, marketplace access and other users’ willingness to trade. Don’t assume an item has a guaranteed resale value or that you can take it to another game.

Start with the game, not a token purchase. Since Off The Grid is free to play, you can first check whether you enjoy its combat and battle royale format without using blockchain features. If you later want to trade eligible items, follow the wallet and marketplace setup shown inside the official game experience.

Use this order:

1. Install and open the game through its official distribution channel. Check system requirements and account setup before downloading.
2. Play without connecting a wallet. Learn which items are ordinary progression and which, if any, have blockchain features.
3. Read the in-game GUNZ instructions. Confirm whether you need to create or connect a wallet and which network is selected.
4. Secure access before funding anything. Store recovery details privately; never share a recovery phrase with support staff or anyone offering help.
5. Try a small, low-risk action only if you understand it. Review the asset, destination, amount and fee on the final confirmation screen.

Wallet prompts can grant permissions or trigger transactions. Pause if a request is unclear, unexpected or asks you to reveal your recovery phrase. You can keep playing without making that decision.

A trade usually involves more than the price shown on an item. A buyer may pay the seller’s listing price and a network fee, and a marketplace may apply its own charge. Sellers may also face a fee or other listing conditions. The exact total depends on the current transaction and service.

GUN is used for GUNZ network transactions, but that does not make every game purchase a payment in GUN. The game or marketplace may present different payment options, and availability can vary. Check the denomination and total before you approve anything. Network fees can change, so don’t rely on an old estimate or assume a transaction is free.

Before buying or listing, check:

Check	Why it matters
Item and collection	Avoid buying a lookalike or the wrong asset
Total cost and currency	The listing price may not include all charges
Network	A transfer on the wrong network may not work as intended
Sale and withdrawal terms	Listings, settlement and transfers can have conditions
Current market activity	A listed price does not guarantee a buyer or future value

Gunzilla Games does not publish a single fixed fee that applies to every GUNZ transaction. Use the live confirmation screen, and do not proceed if the fee or asset is unclear.

Treat a GUNZ wallet like a financial account, even if you only plan to use it for game items. A mistaken transfer, compromised recovery phrase or approval to a malicious service can put assets at risk. A blockchain transaction may be difficult or impossible to reverse once confirmed.

Use these safeguards:

• Open wallet and marketplace features from the game or a service you have independently verified. Don’t follow sponsored search listings or unsolicited direct messages.
• Never disclose your seed phrase or private key. A legitimate support agent does not need it to troubleshoot your account.
• Check the network, recipient and amount on every transaction screen. Small typos can send assets to the wrong destination.
• Keep only the amount you are prepared to risk in a wallet used for game transactions.
• Don’t sign a request you cannot explain. Disconnecting a wallet later may not undo an approval already granted.
• Secure the game account and associated email with unique passwords and available account protections.

An NFT’s presence on a blockchain does not remove risks tied to account access, marketplace rules, software vulnerabilities or the game’s continued support for an item. Keep records of important transactions, but do not treat them as a guarantee of recovery.

The most common mistake is assuming “on-chain” means every game asset is freely owned, transferable and usable elsewhere. In practice, only supported items may be tradable, and their use can still depend on Off The Grid and its marketplace. Read the item’s specific rules rather than relying on a general claim about NFT ownership.

Avoid these errors before you spend:

• Buying GUN before you know why you need it. First confirm the transaction you want to make and what token it requires.
• Confusing GUN with an item NFT. GUN is a token; an eligible item NFT is a separate asset.
• Ignoring the full transaction total. Include the item price, network fee and any marketplace charge shown.
• Trusting a price as proof of value. A listing is not a completed sale, and markets can be thin or change quickly.
• Rushing through wallet approvals. Read the requested action and reject unexplained permissions.
• Assuming a blockchain transaction can be reversed. Check every detail before confirming.
• Paying someone who promises guaranteed returns or recovery. Treat unsolicited offers and requests for recovery phrases as a warning sign.

If you cannot verify the item, network, recipient or total cost, stop. You can continue playing without taking that transaction risk.

GUNZ is most relevant if you already enjoy Off The Grid and want to use its supported item-trading features. It is less relevant if you only want to play matches, dislike managing wallets or do not want to take on transaction and asset risks. The game is free to play, so you can make that decision after trying the gameplay rather than buying tokens first.

Consider the trade-off this way:

If you want…	A sensible next step
Battle royale gameplay	Play without a wallet and decide whether the game suits you
Tradable game items	Check which specific items are eligible and read the marketplace terms
A financial investment	Don’t treat game items or GUN as guaranteed investments; values and demand can change
Simple account access	Skip wallet features unless you understand the extra security responsibilities

GUNZ mainnet makes blockchain transactions possible for supported Off The Grid assets; it does not make them mandatory or risk-free. Check the current game and marketplace terms, fees and supported networks at the point you act. Keep spending within an amount you can afford to lose, and don’t buy an item or token based on an expectation of future gains.
