Transparency and effective communication are critical in building trust and maintaining player engagement in Web3 gaming, particularly for a high-profile project like Champions Tactics. This report evaluates the extent to which Champions Tactics's development team demonstrates effective communication, consistent transparency, and responsiveness to player feedback in their update processes, and how this approach impacts community trust, player satisfaction, and the overall health of the game's ecosystem. Community engagement and transparency are integral to the success of Web3 games like Champions Tactics. Champions Tactics has demonstrated a commitment to player engagement and transparency, but there are areas where further improvement is necessary to enhance trust and player satisfaction. Ubisoft has actively sought community feedback during the development of Champions Tactics, particularly through events and beta phases, fostering a sense of ownership and engagement among players. However, the lack of detailed roadmap updates and explanations for delays could potentially impact player trust in the long term. The game's growing community, with over 100,000 followers on X and 50,000 on Discord, indicates strong player interest and engagement, though the lack of specific information on update frequency and the reasoning behind delays limits a full assessment of their transparency. While the team has communicated delays through platforms like Discord, the absence of detailed explanations and post-mortem reports reduces the effectiveness of this transparency. Greater transparency around roadmap changes, delays, and the reasoning behind updates would help maintain player trust and engagement, ensuring the long-term success of the game's ecosystem.

• Platforms like Discord and X have been used to communicate updates, but more frequent and detailed roadmap updates could improve transparency.
• While community feedback has been actively sought, the introduction of community voting systems or more direct involvement in decision-making could further enhance engagement.
• Transparency around delays and roadmap changes could be improved by providing detailed explanations and post-mortem reports, which would help maintain player trust.
• Future research should focus on the specific types of updates provided, the frequency of communication, and the extent to which player feedback is incorporated into development.
