Magic Machine and Bisonic Inc have announced that their fantasy MMORPG, Forgotten Runiverse, will be hosted on the Ronin platform. The game, inspired by the NFT collection Forgotten Runes Wizard’s Cult, will launch with a closed beta event on July 31, followed by a public gaming event in August. Forgotten Runiverse is part of the larger Forgotten Runes Wizard’s Cult transmedia project, which includes a comic series and an upcoming animated show.
Forgotten Runiverse offers players a range of features commonly found in fantasy MMORPGs, such as item crafting, PvE quests, PvP gameplay, and the ability to form guilds. The launch will include the limited-time release of the New Foundations pre-alpha event, where players can mint gameplay rewards and build on plots. Additionally, several dungeons will be available for players to explore.
Trung Nguyen, CEO of Sky Mavis, the company behind Ronin, expressed excitement about the partnership, stating that the Forgotten Runiverse team has spent three years developing a free-to-play MMORPG designed for mass-market adoption on mobile and computers. Nguyen praised the game’s vision of enabling community interaction through shared experiences, storytelling, and adventure. He believes this aligns perfectly with the Ronin community and welcomes The Cult into the Ronin ecosystem.
Bisonic co-founder Kata also expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, highlighting Ronin’s unique blend of Web3 technology and community at scale. Kata considers Ronin to be the pioneer in Web3 gaming and the home of real gamers. He believes Ronin’s token utility, daily active users, and the “Ronin Effect” make it the ideal platform to bring Forgotten Runiverse to the market.
This collaboration between Magic Machine, Bisonic Inc, and Ronin marks an exciting development in the world of MMORPGs. By leveraging the power of NFTs and Web3 technology, Forgotten Runiverse has the potential to create a vibrant and immersive gaming experience for players. With its focus on community engagement and storytelling, the game aims to foster a sense of shared adventure among players. As the closed beta and public gaming events approach, gamers can look forward to diving into the rich world of Forgotten Runiverse and experiencing all it has to offer.
