First Playtest Involves 1,000 Participants
Sky Mavis conducted the first closed playtest of Atia’s Legacy from September 25 to October 2, 2025. Approximately 1,000 members participated, marking a milestone for the Ronin blockchain gaming ecosystem.
The playtest involved collectible holders, top players, and select community members. Sky Mavis aims to gather feedback and refine its development strategy, indicating a focus on collaborative and transparent game development.
"Atia’s Legacy playtest starts THIS WEEK: Explore an early build of a new Axie game between September 25th and October 2nd." - Trung Nguyen, CEO, Sky Mavis
Community Feedback Guides Game Development
The playtest did not result in immediate market changes due to the absence of financial rewards. Community feedback focused on gameplay and features, encouraging ongoing improvements in development and technical narrative.
The Ronin blockchain highlights benefits such as low fees and high throughput, essential for MMO development. Historical data suggests previous game launches affected governance token activity, though direct impacts of this playtest remain limited.
No Financial Incentives in Playtest Strategy
This launch parallels Axie Infinity's previous events where NFT and token integration played major roles. However, financial incentives were not part of the playtest, moderating market effects.
Experts emphasize the importance of gathering quality feedback over immediate returns. Historical data shows Axie NFT activity tends to rise post-launch, similar trends may occur as Atia’s Legacy progresses.
