Introducing Legendary: Heroes Unchained — The future of Blockchain RPGs
News, announcements, tips, tricks, and legendary content for the LHU community.
Say, Hello, to N3twork Studios 👋
We’re a newly formed gaming studio whose mission is to create incredible experiences in, on, and around the blockchain. Join us as we rethink how games are built, operated, marketed, and financed in the wake of this breakthrough technology.
To kick off our content house, we are proud to announce our LHU blog, a destination for the latest news, information, teasers, and alpha for our upcoming hero-collector RPG, Legendary: Heroes Unchained, a new game built for the blockchain.
The Truth about Blockchain Gaming 😲
Blockchain games are being announced at an incredible rate. The level of interest in the space is exciting, but few projects have truly lived up to their potential and more importantly, the expectations of their fans. It’s unfortunate, but important to acknowledge, that the early iterations of blockchain gaming have left many skeptical of the true potential to marry compelling gameplay and the ability to collect, own and trade on-chain assets from the experience.
That’s where we come in.
Blockchain meet Gaming Veterans 🤝
The N3twork Studios team is composed of veteran free-to-play game developers, creatives, operators, and fans with tons of experience building and running web2 digital economies. Coming from EA, Kabam, Zynga, Glu, Disney, and more; our team is united by an appreciation for what makes gaming great and an understanding of where it needs to go next.
Traditional game economies have lacked true ownership or accessible avenues for players to trade with one another confidently. In some cases, the incentives of the company behind the game and the player base have even misaligned, creating friction and divergences between the community and core team building the experience. Learning from this and the latest blockchain gaming releases, our team understands how to leverage Web3 to build a true game experience that curates shared value and community.
With Legendary: Heroes Unchained, we will iteratively release a fully-fledged hero-collecting RPG with competitive gameplay, collaborative frameworks, meaningful long-term progression systems, constant events, and a variety of elder game experiences. Everything players expect from a classic game, but with all of these systems built from the ground up for blockchain gaming. Our goal is to empower our community of players to collect, own and grow their Hero NFTs and Gear NFTs over the entire life of the game.
What is Legendary Heroes: Unchained? ⚔️
Legendary: Heroes Unchained is a brand new hero-collector RPG, built from the ground up for the blockchain. In LHU, you’ll build a hero collection and assemble teams to explore the darkest dungeons, dominate in Player-vs-Player combat, join epic Guild-vs-Guild events, and earn on-chain assets.
In LHU, the heroes you collect, the gear you equip, the armies you build, and the land you fight for are all NFTs. This enables true digital ownership of your characters, gear, and certain rewards. In later releases, players will be able to earn on-chain $LHU tokens that they can use to acquire new heroes, power up their existing teams, or sell on the marketplace.
Build your collection of characters, and learn their backstories and motivations. Arrange the ultimate team and test your skills against the competition in live events with progress tracked across leaderboards.
This is the moment when grinding meets ownership when in-game collecting merges with in-game assets, and when blockchain truly meets gaming; this is Legendary: Heroes Unchained.
Collect, Explore, Battle, and Compete in Korelis 🏆
Legendary: Heroes Unchained takes place in the vast and mysterious world of Korelis, a richly-detailed fantasy universe, filled with ancient ruins, sprawling deserts, mysterious dungeons, and powerful artifacts.
Players will have the freedom to explore this world as they see fit, uncovering its secrets and building their own stories along the way. The world of Korelis is filled with deep and engaging storylines, complex decisions, customizable characters, and thrilling combat.
Combining the accessibility of free-to-play with in-game ownership of NFTs, players who mint or purchase NFT-based Heroes will be able to take advantage of their progress and time invested, by either holding their limited series Heroes or strategically trading with other players. The progress you commit to raising your stats, evolving your heroes, and strategizing for the ultimate squad can now pay off in multiple ways.
While an RPG at its core, what truly sets LHU apart is how it leverages blockchain technology to enable the in-game collection, ownership, and the ability to trade with other players freely. Thus LHU enables true ownership of in-game items and assets, giving players the ability to trade and sell them on the open market.
