Immortal Rising 2 hits 400,000 pre-registrations

Building up towards its Q3 2024 launch, Immortal Rising 2 has mustered over 400,000 pre-registrations within a week. 

Developed by South Korea-based Bad Beans and published by Planetarium Labs – a company which has already gained momentum with web3 RPG series Nine Chronicles – the idle AFK action RPG Immortal Rising 2 is also getting a marketing boost thanks to deploying on Immutable’s zkEVM chain.

As part of the pre-reg campaign, users signing up early via app stores can also claim 3,000 Equipment Summons.

To a larger extent however, engagement is driven by various quests, allowing users to earn ORBs for completing missions such as following social channels and inviting friends. ORB is a resource that can later be converted to Immortal tokens, IMT, which is slated for launch during Q4 2024. 

Serving as a governance token, IMT will enable holders to participate in the game’s design. It also grants eligibility to earning rewards through staking. More than that however, the tokens will also be used for in-game transactions. 

Additionally, ORB “may grant early or exclusive access to events, special releases, and limited-time offers.” Following game launch, it can also be obtained through various in-game quests.

In terms of the game itself, Immortal Rising 2 is a web3 mobile-based dark fantasy idle RPG, and a sequel to the highly popular web2 RPG Immortal Rising. Unveiled at the Web3 Game Unplugged event in 2023, it’s backed by Animoca Brands, among others.
