The latest blockchain game to make the move to Ronin is RPG Tatsumeeko, which started life as a Discord-based IP, before minting NFTs on Immutable and Solana.
Developed by Singapore-based Tatsu Works, the game is planned to release on Ronin via PC and mobile in Q4 2024.
The original incarnation of the game world launched in 2016 as Tatusu.GG, which featured collection and idle RPG mechanics, and which has reportedly been integrated in over 1.5 million Discord communities, with over 60 million lifetime interacting accounts.
Now called Tatsumeeko: Lumina Fates, the new game is the outworking of that Discord-based foundation. Labelled as a RPG with life sim elements, it mixes turn-based auto combat with cozy housing gameplay.
Prior to the release on Ronin, Tatsu Works will be launching the Telegram-based Lumina Hunt mini-game, by which players can collect Vabloon points as they contribute to the in-game V-Squads. Players could receive a token allocation, as well as game items and currencies.
“We’re excited to partner with Ronin as we prepare for the full launch of Tatsumeeko later this year,” said Tatsu Works’ CEO David Lim.
“Our goal is to unify web2 and web3 gaming by allowing our massive Discord community to explore the potential of blockchain technology through our life simulation RPG. We believe Tatsumeeko and Ronin together offer the perfect platform for this.”
“We’re thrilled to welcome the first life simulation RPG to the Ronin ecosystem, adding a fresh genre for our growing community. Tatsumeeko’s large and passionate Discord following reminds us a lot of what we saw with Axie Infinity in its early days, which we believe is a strong indicator of their potential for success on Ronin,” added Sky Mavis CEO Trung Nguyen.
