About Illuvium

Illuvium is an open-world fantasy battle game built on the Ethereum blockchain. Often touted as the first AAA game on Ethereum, Illuvium seeks to provide a source of entertainment for both casual gamers and hardcore DeFi fans through a variety of collecting and trading features. The world of Illuvium is inhabited by creatures known as Illuvials, which can be captured by players who defeat them in battle and nurse them back to health. Thereafter, they become a loyal part of the player's collection and can be used when facing other adventurers as part of Illuvium's automatic fighting game. The game is a fusion between an open-world exploration game and a PVP battle game. Players can spend their time exploring the spaces of the game world or building their team of powerful beasts. Illuvium has been in development since 2020 and is being created by a global team of over 40 people, including co-founders; serial entrepreneur and early cryptocurrency adopter Kieran Warwick, and experienced game designer Aaron Warwick, who are brothers (and who also happen to be brothers of Kain Warwick, the co-founder of DeFi platform Synthetix). The ILV token has several uses within the Illuvium ecosystem. It is the primary token used to reward players for their in-game achievements, it grants players their share of the Illuvium Vault, and it is used to participate in the governance of the game through Illuvium's decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO).
