Axie Infinity, the P2E game that revolutionized the blockchain gaming industry, announced that Axie Infinity: Origins Season 2 is ready to be launched and upon us!
Below you can see the key points of the new season according to The Lunacian.
Sky Mavis, the gaming studio behind Axie Infinity, listened and took into consideration feedback from the community. Ultimately, they made season 2 slightly shorter (42 days) and changed the reward system. As a result, season 2 will be a fast-paced one. However, there are more crucial moderations. For example, leaderboard payouts will happen four times throughout the season in contrast with the previous one that saw players getting their rewards at the end of the season. Additionally, level-ups will happen much faster.
Introducing Eras
A change in the leaderboard system was essential to Axie Infinity. The Lunacian introduced as Eras. A new leaderboard system that rewards players throughout the entire season with a total of 112,000 $AXS.
In addition, season 2 of Origins will promote a dynamic meta through progressive Rune/Charm rarity unlocks across the entire second season. If you didn’t understand, let me give an example.
Let’s say that from Day 0 to Day 7 (Rare Era), players can only craft Common and Rare Charms/Runes. Then at the end (when the Rare Era ends), the top players will receive the first leaderboard payout. The full schedule goes as follows:
The Rare Era
- Day 0 to Day 7
- Total Reward Payout = 11,200 AXS (or 10% of 112,000 AXS)
- Players can only use Beginner/Basic crafting. No Utility Slots are open.
- Only common and rare Runes and Charms will be available for crafting.
The Epic Era
- Day 7 to Day 21
- Total Reward Payout = 33,600 AXS (or 30% of 112,000 AXS)
- Intermediate Crafting unlocks. All Utility Slots are open.
- Only common, rare, and epic Runes and Charms will be available for crafting and trading.
- Bonus: all players who played at least one game during the Rare Era will receive a Sealed Epic Rune Choice Box which they can redeem at any time during Season 2.
The Mystic Era
- Day 21 to Day 28
- Total Reward Payout = 16,800 AXS (or 15% of 112,000 AXS)
- Master Crafting unlocks.
- All Runes and Charms are available for crafting.
- Bonus: all players who played at least one game during the Epic Era will receive a Sealed Mystic Rune Choice Box which they can redeem at any time during Season 2.
The Final Era
- Day 28 to Day 42
- Total Reward Payout = 50,400 AXS (or 45% of 112,000 AXS)
- All Runes and Charms are available for crafting and trading.
- Bonus: all players who have played at least one game during the Mystic Era will receive a Sealed Mystic Charm Choice Box which they can redeem at any time during Season 2.
It is also noteworthy to mention a new experiment by Sky Mavis. This experiment is called Daily Login Bonus and will reward players with a Free Prize each time they log in. Log in each day and check your mailbox!
In my opinion, these changes/additions were the most important of all. If you want to check the full list of new additions/changes head to The Lunacian. Happy Season 2, Lunacians!
