# 2. The Essentials: MixBots, Masks & More

Your journey in **MixMob: Racer 1** begins with two key assets:

* <img src="/files/4jzP50UlkkL0ysQIBbWI" alt="" data-size="line"> **MixBots** – Your racing companion, each with unique stats that impact speed, handling, and strategy. Progress by earning **MixPoints** in Arenas and unlocking more MixBots through MixPods.
* <img src="/files/PdZex1ojNzYZg57VikdC" alt="" data-size="line"> **Masks** – Your avatar in the MixMob universe, representing your identity and style on the racetrack.

#### **Currencies & Progression**

* <img src="/files/VJ6CPc8E6RJohoAstUKe" alt="" data-size="line"> **MixPoints** – Earned by competing in Arenas (Casual, Ranked, League, and Pop-Up Arenas). Use MixPoints to **purchase MixPods**, which guarantee Stickers and have a chance to unlock new MixBots.
* <img src="/files/nsSX7IsYlZqVXLZnLS5W" alt="" data-size="line"> **MXM** – The game's premium currency, used to unlock **exclusive Arenas, items, and rewards.** Players can purchase and use MXM seamlessly in-game.

#### **Race, Compete & Progress**

Jump in, pick your MixBot, and start racing. Compete across **Casual, Ranked, League, and Pop-Up Arenas** to earn **MixPoints** and unlock more MixBots through MixPods. Your Mask represents your identity—flex it on the track.
