🔥Breaking News (Translation):

1) The first NFT release is planned for June 2025

🔥🔥

2) AI Applications:

i. The first is Inworld AI, which powers our conversational AI and agent behaviors. It is widely used in traditional games (web2), but is little known in web3. Several major AAA studios are using it.

ii. We also utilize Didimo, an AI-based character creation tool. While it hasn’t reached the level of Midjourney yet, it allows players to generate highly detailed characters in Avalon.

For us, the priority is to use AI that is available for production, rather than experimental tools. We need technology that can be applied in today’s games, not just concepts that may be feasible years down the line.

3) AVALON will initially launch on the Base chain, but will later be multi-chain compatible.

4) AVALON is developing a system called the “Interpreter,” which can reinterpret metadata from different game worlds, making seamless asset transfer possible. It also addresses how to present a 3D sword in one game that has a completely different artistic style from another?

5) In AVALON, players have true digital sovereignty, allowing them to permanently own their items. They can earn royalties through user-generated content and transfer their items from one game to another.

6) Roadmap: Later this year (2025), we will launch the early access version of AVALON, where players can create their own worlds and experiences. Our first “survival crafting” world will debut, featuring massive multi-layer structures similar to “Sword Art Online.” The size of each floor will be comparable to “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” — about 36 square kilometers — so this will be a vast, evolving universe. Initially, we will focus on high fantasy scenes, while a cyberpunk environment will be launched within 2025.
