Web3 game Off the Grid has unveiled its “Save Democracy” pack, featuring skins that bear a striking resemblance to candidates from both sides of the aisle. Characters modeled after Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are included, uttering one-liners that poke fun at the statements of the U.S. presidential election candidates.

“America didn’t become the most powerful Nation on Earth through debate diplomacy and being afraid of hurting people’s feelings.” This is the presentation line that Off the Grid, a so-called “extraction shooter” with Web3 elements, uses to introduce its new “Save Democracy” pack.
The new content from the Avalanche-linked game includes skins that depict the likenesses of Donald Trump and Kamala Harris with their respective party colors. The skins also come with dubbed lines from voice actors, including several one-liners that twist the statements from both candidates. For example, Trump’s skinned character states you will get “tired of winning,” and Harris declares that one percenters must be taxed. Trump’s character can also be seen building a brick wall in the pack’s trailer.
However, Gunzilla Games does not acknowledge the references to the candidates, stating that both characters are fictional. “Voices performed by actors. Gunzilla Games does not endorse any politician as none of them represent our values,” the company stressed.
The move is likely intended to boost participation by allowing gamers to play as their preferred candidate in the week leading up to the election. Off the Grid has seen a surge in numbers since its launch, helping it reach Epic Games’ top spot for free-to-play games last month.

The pack has already sparked discussions on social media, with players commending Gunzilla Games’ creativity for its content. The launch also coincides with an update that brings performance improvements of up to 40% for PC players, who have complained about framerate issues despite using premium gaming hardware since the game’s launch.
Recently, billionaire asset manager Vaneck announced an undisclosed investment in Gunzilla Games. According to the firm, blockchain can fulfill gamers’ desire for transparency and control over in-game items. Speaking on the matter, VanEck’s Digital Assets Investor Matt Maximo stated that this would be the fund’s second investment in the gaming industry, highlighting that blockchain “can solve gamers’ desire for transparency and control over in-game items.”
