The task approval period for Season 7 of the Guild Advancement Program (GAP) has officially ended, marking one of the most innovative iterations of the program to date. Season 7 of GAP introduced a series of new games worth exploring, a revamped reward system, and returning team mission opportunities, allowing task participants to experience the program's new forms.

The cycle lasts from September 30th to November 4th. With the adoption of the new GAP reward system, YGG's task approval process spans the entire season, allowing task completers to claim rewards at any time before the season ends.

Please read below for more information on participation in Season 7 of GAP and the new reward formats.

A warm welcome to the latest games in GAP

The number of games in Season 7 of GAP increased from 8 to 11, featuring some of the most popular games among players.

Arena of Faith, Blade of God X, Mystery Society, and Sipher Odyssey made their debut in GAP, while Nine Chronicles, Parallel, Pixels, and Rumble Racing Star returned from Season 6. Early classic games of GAP—Axie Infinity, GensoKishi Online, and Mighty Action Heroes—also made a grand return.

This season had a total of 47,964 people sign up for tasks, with 8,213 participating. Engagement with GAP tasks remains high, with over 39,000 tasks submitted.

Sipher Odyssey took the lead in its GAP debut with a task registration count of 8,545, followed closely by Mystery Society with 8,532 tasks and Arena of Faith with 6,910 tasks.

Guild participation is also high, with over 200 guilds participating in the program. In the global guild battle series of tasks, YGG rewarded the 22 most active guilds. This includes 12 level 1 guilds, each with at least 20 members completing 5 tasks; 4 level 2 guilds, with over 50 members completing at least 5 tasks; and 6 guilds reaching level 3 of the global guild battle tasks, with over 100 guild members successfully completing 5 or more tasks during the season.

Bringing AI bounties to newcomers

Among a total of 8,213 participants, 46% chose to engage in at least one non-game task. This includes Sapien, Navigate, and FrodoBots AI bounties, as well as the YGG game tester program and guild alliance missions.

The novice tasks were introduced as a new category of tasks, helping newcomers start their journey in the YGG ecosystem by allowing them to directly earn YGG tokens as rewards for completing specific tasks. Adventurers can then use these tokens to claim the GAP season pass and participate in advanced missions, or use tokens to enhance reward multipliers when converting points.

These novice tasks include Global Creators, Global Guilds, YGG Regions and Partners, and Welcome to YGG tasks, with a total of 3,028 task participants taking the first step into the YGG ecosystem.

Advanced missions, inflation coefficients, and exploration reward center

1,443 players purchased the 25YGG season pass to maximize their chances of earning rewards.

The season pass has opened advanced missions for Arena of Faith, GensoKishi Online, Mighty Action Heroes, Mystery Society, Nine Chronicles, Parallel, and Pixels.

In a major update for Season 7, YGG has simplified the process of claiming rewards through the reward center. To achieve this, the YGG team moved the task approval process to the season period rather than waiting until the end of the season.

This change allows task completers to earn points faster, enabling them to undertake tasks on the reward map. Adventurers can use their points to unlock a range of reward nodes, including YGG, RON, and PIXEL tokens, as well as NFTs such as Axies or the Nyang set from Ragnarok: Monster World.

In addition to this new reward claiming system, a 'Stake House' has been introduced, which is a unique active staking platform designed to make adventures conducted through GAP more meaningful. When exchanging points for tokens in the 'reward center', YGG token holders on Ronin can earn multiplier rewards. The more YGG tokens earned, the higher the multiplier, up to 3.5 times.

So far, over 340,000 YGG tokens have been poured in, allowing more than 900 players to increase their income when claiming tokens in the reward center. With the full launch of Season 8 of GAP, returning adventurers will build on the success of Season 7 to tackle new challenges alongside current and future guild partners.
