While play-to-earn games have exploded over the past year, the starting costs for some leave many prospective players wanting free alternatives.
Free-to-Earn (F2E) serves as a solution in which players do not need to invest any money to play in the game but only commit their time and effort. Check out the list of 5 free-to-earn games to start playing in 2022.
1. Thetan Arena

With the Free to Earn model, you are given a character called Raidon to start the game. You use this character to participate in free battles and win Thetan Coin and Thetan Gem.
Moreover, you will receive a Free Hero when first logging into Thetan Arena. You can use it to participate in battles and receive rewards. You will get the 2nd and 3rd heroes when reaching a certain rank. With these three Free Heroes, you can earn enough money to unlock Premium Heroes and continue your Free To Earn journey.
