One of the largest esports teams in the world, Team Liquid, has joined forces with Illuvium <\/em>on the release of PVP autobattler Illuvium: Arena<\/em>. Eight streamers from Liquid will test the competitive modes of Illuvium: Arena<\/em>, which recently launched early access on Epic Games.<\/p>\n

The Australian-based developer behind Illuvium<\/em> has been working on the game for three years. During that time, it\u2019s grown to become one of the most anticipated web3 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Team Liquid founder and co-CEO Victor Goossens commented, \u201cWe\u2019ve been very impressed with the quality of Illuvium: Arena so far. Aside from the attention to detail that they\u2019ve given to building their game world, their commitment to its competitive mode makes us confident that this will be a game that rewards skill and strategy. This is a unique project where both sides benefit from the other\u2019s expertise, and we\u2019re excited to start testing all that the game has to offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the Arena mode going live, a limited-edition Team Liquid NFT collection of Illuvitars will launch on 12th December. There\u2019s also a future prospect of Team Liquid participating in Illuvium: Arena<\/em> tournaments.<\/p>\n

Illuvium<\/em> CEO Kieran Warwick commented, \u201cOvercoming the scepticism around blockchain games is crucial, and the way forward is by delivering exceptional gaming experiences. Our collaboration with Team Liquid is a significant milestone in demonstrating that blockchain games, including those with NFTs, can offer engaging and deep gameplay experiences on par with traditional games.\u201d<\/p>\n
