Season 2 of web3 mobile ARPG Fableborne Adventures is now live, having launched today at 10:00 UTC, bringing with it an array of exclusive events, and a prize pool of almost 5 million Gold Essence.
Running from August 19 to September 22, Season 2 will feature two new events; Siege Survival on August 20, and Kingdom Clash on August 26, with the top 10,000 players in these events obtaining a share of the prize pool.
The update also adds 50 new campaign levels, new defensive units, a new boss and a new crossbow-wielding Hero – titled Shade – to use.
What is Fableborne?
Fableborne (also known as Fableborne Adventures) is a free-to-play web3 action RPG available on iOS and Android devices. Players form strategic alliances to grow their power, defend their island and raid other players’ bases across the Shatterlands.
Developers Pixion Games describe Fableborne as “Diablo meets Clash Royale”, with the title seeing players both build and upgrade bases, as well as selecting and commanding a harmonious squad of Heroes to send forth on Raids.
The game is still in its early stages, with a focus on creating “short, snackable sessions” for competitive play – allowing time-limited players to succeed, whilst also appropriately rewarding more time-rich users.
What is coming in Season 2?
The two main attractions of Season 2 are the Siege Survival Event and the Kingdom Clash Event.
Siege Survival arrives first on August 20, and will see players take on endless waves of attacks in the all-new Survival mode, with those reaching the highest wave in the quickest time hitting the top of the leaderboards.
This is followed by Kingdom Clash on August 26, where players must fortify their defences whilst raiding other players. Those who are able to succeed in both areas will earn stars and climb the leaderboards, giving them a chance to secure a share of the 5 million Gold Essence prize pool.
Season 2 also sees the rework of the Essence reward system, now encompassing three tiers:
- Bronze Essence: earned by engaging in social quests, can be multiplied by owning an NFT from one of 23 Fableborne Friends partner collections
- Gold Essence: earned from in-game events
- Primordial Essence: earned by owning a Fableborne Primordial NFT
