Illuvium DAO to Drop highly-anticipated Wave 2 Collection Amidst Sea Of Red in NFT Markets
Tuesday, August 15th, 2023: Following the success of Wave 1, which achieved an impressive $9 million in sales and found homes for 350,000 NFTs, Illuvium is poised to unveil the highly anticipated Wave 2 of its immersive NFT collection game, “Illuvium: Beyond.” The launch is scheduled for 10:00 PM UTC on Tuesday, August 15th, 2023.
“Recent times have witnessed a string of disappointing drops from esteemed Blue Chip NFT projects. For instance, Azuki Elementals managed to amass a staggering $38 million, yet it left a bitter aftertaste among stakeholders due to subpar art quality. Consequently, this discrepancy led to an alarming plunge of nearly 65% in floor prices. Similarly, the launch of Memelands Captainz faced a parallel plight, with stakeholders even venturing to suggest that the freshly unveiled art had been sourced from “Fiverr artists.” More recently, the De-Gods Season three collection fell short of the lofty expectations it had garnered.
However, amidst the pervasive scepticism that has clouded the NFT arena, Illuvium stands to buck the trend. Despite the prevailing negative sentiment within the struggling NFT landscape, Illuvium is confident in the forthcoming success of their Wave 2 release, featuring the popular Illuvium: Beyond characters.”
Kieran Warwick, Co-Founder and CEO, stated, “What sets us apart from the rest is the exceptional quality of our artwork. Our creations aren’t generated; they are meticulously handcrafted by expert artists who have previously worked with industry giants like Blizzard, Wizards of the Coast, and Riot Games. Additionally, Illuvium: Beyond connects with our broader Gaming Universe, giving collectors exclusive in-game items, usable in all our games, as rewards for collecting.”
In Illuvium: Beyond, players buy and trade Illuvitars (avatars for Illuvials), using accessories to craft the perfect combinations for their collections. Strategy is crucial to maximising the power of your collection and climbing the leaderboard. Illuvitars also serve as player avatars, and there’s anticipation around an upcoming proposal for a full PVP card game featuring Illuvitars.
One of the key appeals of Illuvium: Beyond is its accessible entry point for new enthusiasts, helped by innovative DAO governance, where the community came together to implement exciting new pricing. Standard D1SKS come with 2 Illuvitars and three Accessories, now priced at 0.003 ETH ($5.50). Mega D1SKS ensure a rare Illuvitar for only 0.018 ETH ($33) for players focused on quickly strengthening their collections.
The Illuvium DAO remains confident that the second wave of their groundbreaking collection will weather the challenging market conditions and further elevate the immersive NFT space with its unparalleled artistry, visionary universe, and dedicated commitment to providing an engaging experience for collectors and gamers alike.
