Illuvium is a highly anticipated interoperable blockchain game that is preparing for the mainnet launch on July 25 at 18:00 UTC.
Within the first two hours, players can download the game client from Epic Games, watch an animated introduction, and complete tutorials.
Regional travel will be opened at 20:00 UTC, allowing players to begin full exploration.
Illvium Gameplay Overview
Players will find themselves awakening from cryosleep on an alien planet, stranded on a damaged spaceship. With the help of companion drones, players must navigate new environments, gather necessary resources, and work to repair their ship.
In Illuvium Zero, gameplay involves building and managing an outpost to produce fuel and other resources vital to exploration. Players can unlock new technologies and rare blueprints to improve their equipment and adapt to the environment, while also trading fuel and blueprints on the market.
In the Illuvium overworld, players capture Illuvials, forge specialized gear, and craft unique items to aid in their journey. They take on various missions to uncover Earth’s secrets and connect instantly with other players to share discoveries and stay informed about events, while Illvium Arena engages in strategic battles with other players through auto-battle, with multiple game modes such as Ascendant (1v1 Combat) ), Survival mode (PvE challenge) and Challenge mode (8-player free-for-all).
Finally, Illuvium Beyond allows players to collect beautifully illustrated cards that depict Illuvials in unique forms, and earn exclusive rewards by completing these collections.
Airdrops and future updates
The game’s release also marks the start of a six-month airdrop campaign. Players can earn a portion of the $180,000 $ILV reward pool by completing in-game missions and milestones, with 30,000 $ILV distributed each season.
Illuvium’s developers plan to release ongoing updates, special events, and new content based on community feedback after launch.
To ensure a smooth start, players are encouraged to follow the official Illuvium channels for the latest news and updates, download and install the latest game version from Epic Games on launch day, become familiar with game mechanics and patch notes, and interact with the community to exchange tips and connect with other players.
