Hong Kong-based Ticker Logic Studio has announced the migration of its popular MMORPG, Lumiterra: Embers of the Legacy, from the Arbitrum blockchain to Ronin, an EVM-based blockchain developed by Sky Mavis. This move is set to expand Lumiterra’s reach and enhance the gaming experience for its players.
Sky Mavis CEO and Co-Founder Trung Nguyen stated: “Lumiterra's migration to Ronin is more than just adding a new game; it's about welcoming legions of web3 gamers from China and Hong Kong into Ronin’s digital nation. Lumiterra offers rich gameplay experiences, from survival and crafting to exploration and DeFi engagement. With a strong, organically-grown community and proven success in the DeFi space, Lumiterra is set to thrive on Ronin.”
Sky Mavis Introduces Lumiterra to Ronin Blockchain
Lumiterra is a free-to-play, cross-platform MMORPG game that combines survival, crafting, exploration and more. Battle against NPC monsters to level-up your character, or tame them for extra help on your farm. Plant seeds, water plants, fertilize soil, and harvest the fruits of your labors.
Craft items, trade them with other players, and forge alliances with other players to complete quests, and use RON as an in-game currency in CBT. The Lumiterra ecosystem has a lot going on from in-game items to NFTs to a DeFi protocol called Lumi Finance. Whether you’re looking for a fun game or a novel web3 experience, there are many experiences for a variety of player archetypes.
In Lumiterra, players roam free in an open-world filled with challenges and opportunities. Your character will level-up over time as you gain more experience in three specializations: combat, agriculture, and gathering. Fight monsters to gain combat EXP, tame them to gain agriculture EXP, and so on.
Players who specialize in combat can battle their way towards more powerful weapons – like swords instead of fists. Those who specialize in agriculture skills can become more efficient tamers who then produce more resources. Resources are the key to crafting better items from equipment to weapons to materials and more. Your speciality is your destiny. However, you can always choose to level-up in all three specialities or forge alliances with other players to complement each other’s strengths.

According to sources, Lumiterra’s CBT will launch in July and is set to feature a $1 million USD prize pool. These prizes include RON, in-game items, allowlist spots for a future paid Lumiterra NFT mint, and more. The game features a quest system with a main storyline and side quests, allowing players to compete and collaborate with friends.
Additionally, players can form alliances to defend against other players’ invasions, adding a strategic layer to the gameplay. The closed beta launch on Ronin is expected in July. Lark, Co-Founder and CEO of Lumiterra, commented:
“Our goal is to captivate players through high-quality games, allowing the in-game goods economy to function naturally and fostering a healthy economic circulation system that supports the game's ongoing expansion and depth. We are excited to bring Lumiterra to the Ronin ecosystem, uniting DeFi, GameFi, and players in a seamless experience. Ronin's proven track record, scalability, and active community make it the ideal platform for us. We look forward to introducing a new paradigm to our dedicated followers and the Ronin community.”
