Illuvium (ILV)
The crashing market is destroying many solid projects with huge potential and Illuvium is one of the sufferer! The drop in the price of ILV is shocking over the time! But they are trying their best to cope up with the worst time with continuous development. Illuvium is a NFT-based game with open-world fantasy battle on the Ethereum blockchain. It is known as the first AAA game on Ethereum blockchain that looks to provide an excellent kind of entertainment for the casual gamers and also provides various DeFi services through a range of options such as Trading, Staking and many more. In the basic concept of the game is with the world of Illuvium where the creatures known as Illuvials are living which are being collected by players through battle and nurse them until they become a loyal part of the player’s collection as NFT and can be used when battling in other journeys to collect more as part of Illuvium’s gameplay. The game seems to be linked with the open-world exploration a PVP(Player vs Player) mode. Players can explore the fantasy world or build up a stronger team with the powerful beasts. Illuvium has been founded in 2020 by an excellent team of developers. The ILV token is the driving token within the Illuvium gaming ecosystem. It’s the main token to reward players for achievements and also to participate in the governance of the game via the Illuvium decentralized autonomous organization (DAO).

Like the other Blockchain games, Illuvium has many blockchain-based elements and accessed through a windows application with a range of supporting DeFi systems including a yield farm and decentralized exchange inside the gaming environment. One of the majore step for the players to buy a LAND plot where they explore the Illuvium landscape and battle with Illuvials and other players to complete quests as daily challenges. Throughout such battles players collect Illuvials with various rarity, utility, and desirability with some unique characteristics also such as-

  • Classes: Empath, Fighter, Guardian, Rogue and Psion.

  • Affinities: Air, Earth, Fire, Nature and Water.

These two characteristics are the most important attributes for the Illuvial though they have a large number of additional attributes determining their strength in the battle such as the attack damage, attack speed, and savagery. A great mechanism is that these Illuvials get stronger through the victory which can be beneficial for upgrading the game assets. Each of these Illuvials are represented by a unique non-fungible token (NFT) which can be freely traded on the marketplace and the gas-free IlluviDEX. The game has a lot of features for revenue generation but mostly with the purchases of game items, crafting components, cosmetics and shard curing.

Illuvium arts and gaming experience
The most impressing factor for Illivium is its arts of the characters and excellent grphics that very few games offers in the blockchain gaming industry! Same like most other blockchain-based games, Illuvium features a fully 3D environment where more than 100 unique Illuvials are found scattered throughout its metaverse. Each of the Illuvial is designed by world-class artists to make them attractive for the players to have it in their collection. The overall experience for the players is amazing due to the efforts Illuvium has put on the visual presentation of the game.

Why AAA title?
A large number of excellent features that help the players who are in this blockchain-enabled game that help them in multiple way and make the gaming experience smooth and so the AAA title comes into the case. These features include:

  • A Layer-2 Integration: As the game is built on the Immutable X (IMX) which is a layer-2 solution for better scale applications with NFT functionality. It ensures players to mint and trade their NFTs with zero gas fees with instant transaction.

  • IlluviDEX: Illuvium has a decentralized exchange (DEX) named as IlluviDEX which can be used for trustlessly exchanging Illuvium assets such as the NFTs and other collectibles. A 5% fee is is deducted for rewarding the ILV stakers in the ecosystem.

  • The Yield Farming: 3 million ILV (30% of the maximum supply of 10 million) is allocated to the Illuvium yield farming program which is great revenue generating scheme for the players!

  • 3D role-playing game: It is based on a gradually revealed storyline and the game has an open explorable landscapewhich is far better than the other 2D games which are popular such as the Axie Infinity or Pokemon! Those games are lack in the 3D environment where Illuvium is completely with 3D environment experience.

  • Customized and Unique artwork: The custom artwork to ensure they are distinct and bear characteristics that relate to their properties and region is an amazing things that is seen in the of Illuvium which can not be seen in many games which make the game more attractive for the players.

  • Design for Conventional Gamers: Illuvium is primarily built for the traditional gamers who have no experience with cryptocurrencies or NFTs which is a solid steps to make the game a unique one for the common audience.

Though the excellent advantages of the game is not the final succeeding fact in this dumped market with a lot of crypto FUDs. And a result the ILV token has lost a lot of its value and It has failed to keep it growth and the impression that it had achieved at the end of the 2021 when the price of ILV was more than $1800 but now it is traded around $40!

Illuvium: Overworld Craze
For coping with the market situation, Illuvium has did some good jobs and as a result recently they have announced their new Privet beta eddition for the gamers to test. It is the 2nd game of their roadmap out of the total 6 games they want to established in the coming decade! The Alpha released is expecting around the Chrismas eve for their third game. 30,000 lucky community members have been selected to try it out the private beta for "Illuvium: Overworld". A preview of gameplay is out with the details about the exploration of the landscape that will involve in playing as a explorer with the spaceship of the gamer which is crashed in the wilderness of the Illuvium metaverse. Players are going to explore a part of the Overworld known as the Crimson Waste. The mine resources and forages are needed to mint weapons and armors. The hunting for Illuvial for battling in "Illuvium: Arena," is also available in private beta. The third title could also be around the corner known as the "Illuvium: Zero" could have an alpha release before Christmas.

The race is becoming more harder among web3 game developers to create blockchain games that will beat traditional games and win over conventional gamers. This is not a small task and very difficult to make a craze like the most popular games like PUBG, Fortnite, and Roblox which are attracting hundreds of millions of players around the world. In this category, some games like Splinterlands, Alien worlds has still less than a million users, whereas simple games in the Google play store easily hit millions of users! The marketing and onboarding remain an ongoing challenge, perhaps the biggest issue fort mainstream adoption which is very necessary to compel non-crypto audiences to enter into the Blockchain-based gaming sector.

"Our mission is to build the first truly AAA experience in the history of web3,” co-founder and game director Aaron Warwick said.

Hope the Blockchain-based game will get mainstream adoption soon and this one thing can change the NFT-based gaming industry completely. What are your viewpoints, let me know in the comment. Thank you very much for your time and attention. Have a nice day!
