### Gang Utility Gangs allow for groups of people to purchase land together in the same District. A smaller gang may just be splitting up Deeds to a Land Plot, where as a bigger gang may own multiple Land Plots next to each other. Friends will want to stay together as in Season 3 The Battle for Primate Island begins, with all Districts entering into war.
{% hint style="info" %} Important notes on Gangs and acquiring Land: * Gangs are only relevant to Token Pools (not auctions) * Each individual Gang Member who contributes on behalf of a Gang must hit the threshold to receive a land deed NFT. That threshold is the same for both individual contributors and gang members. * Any users that fail to hit the threshold will be refunded. * A Gang is not required to acquire Land. Individuals may participate in any Land Grab event as a lone wolf. * Players can leave a Gang at any time and not disturb the holdings of the rest of the Gang members (individual users own the Deeds/Plots, not the Gang). {% endhint %}

### Gang Creation Users will be able to create, join, and leave Gangs right within the main gameplay screen. Players creating a Gang will be asked to select a Gang icon/sigil, customize their Gang's color palette/banner for branding and differentiation, and create a description of what their Gang is all about. Once these are complete, players can begin inviting friends. Your Gang's Hub will display how many members & total Deeds your Gang has earned at any given time.
