Axie Origins Season 10 Preseason Launch: A Deep Dive into New Features and Updates
The world of Axie Infinity Origins is buzzing with excitement as the Season 10 Preseason kicks off, introducing a plethora of new features, game modes, and events poised to revamp the gaming experience for its vibrant community. Spanning from August 7th to August 28th, 2024, this preseason heralds the arrival of innovative additions such as the Roguelike Mode and Meta Morph, further enriching the gameplay and the utility of collectible axies.
Roguelike Mode: A Fresh PvE Challenge
Standing out among the updates is the much-anticipated Roguelike Mode, a Player vs. Environment (PvE) adventure that tests players' strategic prowess. In this mode, players commence at level one, battling through stages teeming with the game's notorious chimeras. Success in each stage rewards players with buffs; however, the journey intensifies as axies do not regain health between stages, demanding judicious strategy and foresight from players.
Additionally, Roguelike Mode is not just about the thrill of the challenge but also about the rewards. Players can earn AXP, Honor Medals, and Roguelike Tickets, which can be exchanged for exclusive non-seasonal Runes and Charms, adding layers of strategy and progression. Defeating the final boss and finishing this challenging mode rewards players with a unique avatar, marking their achievement.
Meta Morph: Elevating Collectible Axies
The innovative Meta Morph feature is part of the new updates, designed to enhance the utility and competitive edge of collectible axies. This feature allows players to morph the cards of their axies into others they own, using specific materials and SLP (Smooth Love Potion). The success rate of the morph, influenced by the rarity of the axie and the number of cards being morphed, brings a new dimension to gameplay and axie customization. Players have the flexibility to revert morphed cards at any time, though it's important to note that the materials used for morphing are non-recoverable.
Compete for AXS Prizes on the Collectible Leaderboard
The Offseason Collectible Leaderboard makes a return with an enhanced prize pool of 6,000 AXS. This leaderboard challenge, focused on battles involving collectible axies, benefits greatly from the Meta Morph feature, allowing for a more powerful lineup of axies. Players earn points based on rank in Ranked Mode, with the chance to climb the leaderboard and secure substantial rewards.
Additional Updates: New Starter Axies and more
The roster of starter axies welcomes two new members, Hope and Shillin, expanding the total to seventeen. Available for purchase in the Origins Shop, these new additions, alongside Season 10’s balance changes to cards, Runes, and Charms, give players new strategies to explore during the preseason. These changes provide a fresh gameplay experience and allow for era-based testing ahead of the official season launch.
Exciting Events: Showcasing Skills and Winning rewards
The preseason is packed with events to celebrate the launch of new features. The Roguelike Race, for example, invites streamers to demonstrate their speedrunning capabilities, with collectible axies as rewards for the top performers. The Roguelike Gem Bonanza offers a significant prize pool of 700,000 Origins Gems for the first 1,000 players to conquer all three levels of Roguelike Mode, among other exciting challenges and rewards.
Final Thoughts
As we edge closer to Season 10, Axie Infinity Origins' preseason lays down a promising foundation of new content and opportunities for its community. The introduction of Roguelike Mode and Meta Morph opens new avenues for gameplay and strategy, ensuring that both new and veteran players have something to look forward to.
