To deliver an unmatched experience, new features have been incorporated into Arena, Overworld, Zero, and Backend/Security.
In the Arena, the Gauntlet Mode will challenge the most experienced players, while the New Weapon System will allow for more precise control over playstyles.
The Overworld is enriched with the implementation of the combat system, enabling battles anywhere on the map.
Interactions with non-player characters (NPCs) will open up a world of possibilities, from obtaining valuable information and quests to acquiring rewards and building lasting relationships.
Meticulous adjustments to the game’s economic balance ensure a fair and rewarding experience for all players.
Additionally, players can customize their characters appearances, and the Forge’s user interface has been optimized to facilitate the creation of powerful items.

Illuvium Zero also benefits from the new features
The integration of quests will provide clear objectives and exciting rewards, while mobile device support (iOS/Play Store) will allow for the experience to be enjoyed anywhere.
Optimization for PC/Mac with a mobile user interface guarantees a smooth experience on different screen sizes.
The decision to postpone the launch to incorporate these features is the result of a thorough analysis and close collaboration between the Illuvium team, the Community Council, and the Main Council.
It is firmly believed that these enhancements, even if not all are available at launch, will significantly enrich the gaming experience across the three Illuvium games and justify the wait.
As a token of appreciation for the community’s patience and support, the Illuvium team has increased the total rewards in $ILV for the testnet phase from 20,000 to 30,000.
The entire community is invited to actively participate in the pre-launch events.
The community meeting on Thursday, June 7th at 8:00 PM UTC will provide an opportunity to clear up any questions and share the excitement.
Additionally, the official launch date trailer premiere on YouTube on Friday, June 7th at 6:00 PM UTC will be a moment to celebrate this milestone together as a community.
Prepare yourselves, Rangers, the Illuvium Universe awaits you starting July 25th for an unforgettable adventure!
