Sky Mavis, the creators behind Axie Infinity, have dropped a teaser for their upcoming MMO, Atia’s Legacy, set to expand the Axie universe.
This marks the company’s next big step following internal restructuring and layoffs, which freed up resources for new ventures.
The trailer showcases a significant evolution in the franchise, moving from 2D turn-based combat to immersive 3D gameplay with elements like farming, puzzle-solving, and mini-games.
The development team is focused on leveraging their extensive Web3 gaming experience, aiming to create a deeper, more engaging game for players. Atia’s Legacy will feature squad-based combat, resource management, and social elements, with playtests expected in 2025.
Sky Mavis has also rolled out a referral program where players can earn Axie Infinity’s native tokens (AXS) for bringing friends into the game.
This announcement comes as the blockchain gaming industry sees broader growth, with other projects like Gunzilla’s Off The Grid also seeing major updates.
