In an exciting announcement, Immutable Games has revealed the much-anticipated global launch of Guild of Guardians, a mobile role-playing game that is set to captivate players around the world. With a scheduled release date of May 15th on both the Apple iOS App Store and Google Android Play Store, gamers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the mythical realm of Elderym. The game focuses on assembling a team of powerful Guardians to combat the sinister threat known as the Dread. The development team behind Guild of Guardians consists of industry veterans from renowned AAA studios like Riot Games, Activision, Square Enix, and Bandai Namco, generating significant anticipation for the game’s release.
As part of its global launch, Guild of Guardians will introduce a groundbreaking feature called The Altar of Sacrifice on March 25th. This innovative blockchain-based crafting system enables players to merge NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) to create new configurations and unlock fresh rewards. To celebrate the rollout of this exciting addition, the game will host Eri’s Grand Opening event. During this event, players can acquire Prayer NFTs and ‘sacrifice’ them to summon a brand-new series of Guardians. The inclusion of The Altar of Sacrifice enriches Guild of Guardians’ gameplay by allowing players to combine and exchange existing assets to uncover new NFTs. This feature presents developers with an engaging opportunity to introduce new recipes and maintain a balanced in-game economy.
Justin Hulog, Chief Studio Officer at Immutable Games, expressed enthusiasm for the upcoming game features, highlighting the significance of these new additions. The ability to ‘sacrifice’ Prayer NFTs to mint fresh Guardian NFTs introduces limitless possibilities and elevates the game’s strategic depth and competitive aspects. Guild of Guardians has already garnered an impressive following, with over 1 million pre-registered users and a thriving community of more than 400,000 dedicated players. Positioned for a successful global debut, the game is built on Immutable zkEVM and powered by Polygon, offering a gaming-oriented blockchain solution that ensures scalability and incorporates player-friendly features. One such feature is the Immutable Passport, which streamlines the onboarding process with passwordless sign-on and automated wallet creation, making it easier for new players to join the Guild of Guardians universe.
Chris Clay, the Game Director of Guild of Guardians, shared his vision for the game, emphasizing its potential to redefine the mobile gaming experience. He believes that the game will provide players with an engaging and fun experience, featuring a rich narrative, strategic gameplay, and ownership of in-game assets. With an innovative approach to gameplay mechanics and a commitment to player satisfaction, Guild of Guardians is poised to usher in a new era of mobile gaming that prioritizes immersion, creativity, and community engagement.
