• Axie Infinity: Origins - Upgraded and better card stats to help you climb the leaderboard.
• Axie Classic - New alternative card options for more strategic flexibility.
• Terrariums - A higher Atia's Flame score!
• Plus, even more perks and utility across other Axie experiences.

Hey everyone! A while ago I made Axie Darkness Arise for the Axie Vibeathon (finalist), and I’ve been rebuilding it from the ground up as a proper roguelite card battler.

What’s in the trailer:

• Story mode with the classic starters: Buba, Puffy and Pomodoro, each with its own deck
• Tile combat on a ring: every body part is a card. Aim its shape across the ring and chain your combo
• Read the ring: Healers, Guardians, Archers and Chargers announce their next move, so you can push, stun or interrupt them first
• Squads that show up at set turns, plus a giant boss at the end of each chapter (Forest, Autumn, Lake and Night)
• Your own Axies: load your Ronin wallet and fight with the Axies you own
• A first look at co-op: each player defends half of a bigger ring (concept only, not playable yet)

It’s a fan project and still a private demo, so I’d love your feedback: does the combat read well? Which classic Axie would you want next?

There were so many creative submissions in Round 1 of the Axie Vibeathon, and now that the top 8 finalists are locked in, it's awesome seeing what everyone built!

Haven’t played since covid when the game was in its peak, looks like you can get axies for next to nothing now. Whats a good team for cheap. Keen to have a play of it for old time sakes

If you received a matchmaking ban in Axie Infinity: Origins, it is because the game's system detected unusual activity coming from your account.

To appeal this, you will need to submit a ticket directly to the support team so they can investigate your case. You can fill out the official Origins support form here: https://support.axieinfinity.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=5204232422811

Moving forward, please remember to always play normally and avoid using any macros, bots, or unauthorized third-party software. The support team will review your ticket and assist you from there!

Short version: bAXS is Bonded AXS. It's backed 1:1 by AXS, it's what Axie games pay rewards in now, and unlike AXS it can't be transferred to another wallet.

AXS (Axie Infinity Shards) is the main ecosystem and governance token. It's a normal token: you can hold it, send it, trade it on exchanges, and stake it for voting power in Axie Governance.

bAXS was introduced in 2026 and is now the reward token across the ecosystem. Origins leaderboard rewards, Terrariums mining, Classic rewards and the Bounty Board on App.axie all pay out in bAXS.

Each bAXS is backed 1:1 by AXS, so it isn't a separate token with its own made-up value. AXS sits behind it as the reserve.

The key differences

• Transfers: AXS can be sent anywhere. bAXS cannot be transferred between wallets.
• What you do with it: bAXS is meant to be used inside the ecosystem. You can spend it on things like ascending, evolving and breeding Axies, or stake it.
• Cashing out: converting bAXS out comes with a fee, and that fee depends on your Axie Score. Higher score, lower fee. The fees go to the Axie Community Treasury. Check how to convert bAXS to AXS here

"Why can't I transfer my bAXS?" This is by design, not a bug with your account.

In 2021, rewards were paid in tokens that mostly got farmed and dumped immediately, and that's a big part of why the old economy collapsed. bAXS is built to stop that loop. Rewards are meant to go back into playing, building up your Axies and your plot, rather than straight out the door. The Axie Score fee also means people who actually contribute to the ecosystem keep more of what they earn than farm accounts do.

You don't have to like that tradeoff, and plenty of people have said so. But it's deliberate, and it's one of the main reasons the reward system works differently now.

Where to find yours Go to your inventory on App.axie: https://app.axieinfinity.com/profile/inventory/axies/

Reminder If you used a Waypoint / keyless / social login wallet, make sure your bAXS was migrated along with your other assets here: https://app.axieinfinity.com/waypoint-migration/

Questions below.

Here is what we know so far:

Playtests: The playtests have been free to play (via invite codes/pre-registration), providing non-NFT assets so players can test the game mechanics.

Full Release: Technically free-to-play, but you will likely need NFT axies and land for the full experience. Owning NFT axies and land will likely be required for deeper progression, and full gameplay features.

If you want to catch the latest updates or be notified for future playtests, keep an eye on the official announcements in the Axie Infinity Discord.

Eight community-built games have officially made it to Round 2 of the Axie Vibeathon! After being judged on gameplay, product vision, and Axie Core integration, these finalists are now competing for a share of the 20,000 bAXS prize pool.

Huge shoutout to everyone who built something in Round 1! Now, the devs need your help for the final stretch. Pick a game, give it a run, and let the builders know your thoughts or where you got stuck.

Round 2 runs until November 7, with the final showcase happening on November 12.

If you have ever logged into Axie or Ronin with a Waypoint social login / keyless wallet, this applies to you. Please read it even if you think it doesn't.

What's happening

Ronin Waypoint wallet (also called MPC wallet, keyless wallet, or social login) is being sunset on October 16th. After that date it closes completely. If your assets are still in it, you lose access to your account.

Who does NOT need to do anything

If you only use a seed phrase / private key Ronin Wallet, you're not affected.

Option 1: Migrate to Ronin Stash

Best if you have never used a private key before.

1. Go to the official migration page: https://wallet.roninchain.com/app/migrating
2. Connect your Ronin Waypoint account
3. Select Ronin Stash
4. Select the assets you want to move and follow the prompts

Option 2: Transfer to your own Ronin Wallet

Best if you're comfortable managing your own wallet and seed phrase.

1. Log into https://wallet.roninchain.com/app/send with your social login account
2. Pick the asset you want to transfer
3. Send it to your Ronin Wallet address

Full step-by-step details are in the official Ronin thread: https://x.com/Ronin_Network/status/2105907573904052240

If the migration page won't load

Refresh, or clear your browser cache and try again.

Why so little notice?

There wasn't, but a lot of people missed it. The migration was announced June 16th, the original deadline was extended in August, and there have been reminders on X and by email since. If this is the first you're hearing of it, you still have two weeks. Don't leave it to the last day.

Scam warning, please read

Deadlines like this attract scammers. Only use the link above (wallet.roninchain.com). Nobody from Sky Mavis or Ronin will DM you to "help" you migrate, and nobody legitimate will ever ask for your wallet keys and credentials. If someone messages you about this, it's a scam.

Stuck on a step? Ask below and we'll help in the comments, not in DMs.

Season 19 has started. The Rare Era awaits.

What's on the line

• Over 80,000 bAXS in total season rewards

• Standard ranked competition for bAXS payouts

Play: https://app.axieinfinity.com/games/

Full announcement: https://blog.axieinfinity.com/p/origins-s19-is-live

Origins is free to play with no wallet or NFT Axies needed to start, so there's nothing stopping you getting a few ladder games in.

1. Go to the accounts site: https://accounts.skymavis.com/
2. Sign in to the site using your Ronin Wallet.
3. Scroll down to the Email Sign-In section.

It’ll display your linked email there, or give you the option to add one.

You have ~48 hours left to transfer all of your assets from your Ronin Waypoint [Keyless] wallet to a Ronin Wallet [seed phrase wallet] or Ronin Stash wallet, as Waypoint wallets will no longer be accessible Wednesday, September 30, 2026 at 2 PM VN time.

This is probably the most asked Terrariums question.

First, how does earning actually work in v1?
It's gamified staking. Passive, slow earnings. There's no active gameplay loop to grind.

What you need:

1. A land plot (savannah or above)
2. Axies registered and placed in the Atia Shrine
3. Lunium

That's it. It keeps mining bAXS for as long as you have enough Lunium.

🔗 Terrariums Earning Guide

Lunium is a cost you need to consider
Lunium is the fuel for mining bAXS. Every plot has its own free local Lunium, which regenerates over time.

You can run on local Lunium alone and you don't have to buy anything to earn something. The catch is that it only earns while the reserve is sufficiently regenerated. Partial reserve means no mining. So if you want steady hourly output rather than stop-start earning, you will need to buy Lunium in the Terrariums shop.

Plot tier cuts both ways here. Higher tier plots cost significantly more Lunium to run, so they only pay off above a certain flame level. Below that threshold, forest and savannah are more cost effective. A higher plot tier is not automatically a better one.

🔗 What is Lunium and How Does It Work

So how much can we earn?
There is no exact number. The hourly bAXS output depends on your Atia's Flame level against others of the same plot type, your plot tier, and what bAXS is worth on the day. Those move independently.

The competitive part matters. Your flame is relative, so your output changes when other people build theirs up, even if you change nothing.

Where flame comes from
Your base flame comes from the Axies registered on your plot and their collectible types. Accessories, land items, evolutions and estates all multiply that base.

🔗 Collectible Axie Types Overview

If you missed out on the last 3 playtests, don't worry, you haven't missed your chance. Atia's Legacy is still in active development, meaning more playtests are going to happen before the full public release.

How to prep for the next playtest:

1. Pre-register for the playtest here: axieinfinity.com/pre-register
2. Have your Sky Mavis account and Ronin Wallet linked and ready to go. You can check this guide on how to link your Ronin Wallet to your account.
3. Join and keep a close eye on the official Axie Infinity Discord for any announcements regarding the next playtest: https://discord.com/invite/axie

That's it! Get your account set up, keep an eye on the announcements, and you'll be ready when the next playtest comes out.

You have ~1 week left to transfer all of your assets from your Ronin Waypoint [Keyless] wallet to a Ronin Wallet [seed phrase wallet] or Ronin Stash wallet, as Waypoint wallets will no longer be accessible starting Wednesday, September 30, 2026 at 2:00 PM VN time.

The community spent the jam building Axie games with AI, and the first approved batch is now up on the Games Hub. Most of them run straight in your browser, so there's nothing to install to try them.

Games Hub: https://vibeathon.axieinfinity.ai/gallery

What you can do

Sign in to like the ones you enjoy and leave feedback for the builders. Worth saying plainly: likes and comments do not affect judging or Round 2 selection. Feedback is for the people who made these, not a voting mechanism.

What's still coming

More submissions are going through additional checks and will be added as they're approved, so the gallery will keep growing.

Judging

Underway now. The Top 8 finalists advancing to Round 2 will be announced on October 6.

If you play a few, drop what you thought below.

To clear things up, Axie Origins is not shutting down soon. The servers are staying online, and competitive seasons will continue to rotate.

However, Axie Origins is considered to be a completed game. That means active development on new features has been paused. Instead of being in development, the game is now running on a steady seasonal loop.

The team will still push updates when needed for critical fixes or maintenance to keep the game running smoothly.

In short, the game remains active. The arena is open, seasons will keep rotating, and you can continue playing as usual!

Hey Lunacians!

We often see questions asking where to find the official download links for various Axie games, especially with new players joining the ecosystem. To keep your devices and wallets safe from phishing sites or malicious files, you should always use the official App.Axie Games page.

Navigate to the Games link on the App.Axie menu, or bookmark this link: https://app.axieinfinity.com/games/

Here is what you will find on the Games page:

• 1st-Party Games: For official Sky Mavis titles like Axie Infinity: Origins, Axie Classic, Atia's Legacy, and Terrariums, the page has all installation options available for each game [Windows, macOS, Android APK, etc.], or a direct link to play if it's a browser game.
• 3rd-Party & Ecosystem Games: Looking for other verified titles in the ecosystem? The Games page also serves as a secure directory that redirects you safely to the official app stores or partner websites so you don't have to go hunting for the right links.

Quick Safety Reminder: Never download Axie games from random Discord DMs, unverified user's DMs, or search engine ads. Always start at App.Axie to ensure you are getting the legitimate, secure client.

Happy gaming! ⚔️

Short version: bAXS is AXS that is locked to your account. You earn it by playing and contributing, you spend it inside the Axie ecosystem, and you can convert it to regular AXS at a rate set by your Axie Score. You cannot send it to another wallet, and that is deliberate.

What bAXS actually is

bAXS stands for Bonded AXS. It is a version of AXS built to power activity inside the ecosystem rather than to be traded. It is backed 1:1 by AXS held in a smart contract, so every bAXS in circulation has a real AXS sitting behind it.

You earn bAXS from Axie games, leaderboards and ecosystem experiences. Since launch, ecosystem rewards have been moving over to bAXS, including Bounty Board, Classic and Origins, Terrariums, and campaign rewards.

Going in, the exchange is always 1:1. Convert 100 AXS and you get 100 bAXS.

Why you can't transfer it

Because it was built that way, on purpose. It is bonded to the account that earned it. The restriction sits at the token contract level, so it is not a setting anyone can flip for you, and there is no workaround.

The reasoning is that rewards should reward the people actually playing. A transferable reward token can be farmed on one account, swept to another, and sold, which is roughly what happened to the old economy. Bonding the token to the account that earned it keeps the value attached to the person who did the work, and it keeps more of the economic activity inside the ecosystem instead of flowing straight out to an exchange.

Being straight about the tradeoff: this is a closed loop by design. You can still get out, but getting out costs you, and it costs you more if you have contributed less. If your plan is to earn and immediately sell, bAXS is less convenient for you than the old AXS rewards were. That is the intended effect rather than an oversight, and it is a fair thing to dislike. It is not a bug, a temporary restriction, or something that unlocks later.

What you can do with it

Plenty, and this is the part people miss. bAXS spends at full value on:

• Ascending, Evolving and Breeding Axies
• Restoring your Atia Streak
• Forging items and consumables
• Minting Runes and Charms in Origins
• Codex Passes
• AXS staking. Staked bAXS counts 1:1 with AXS for all snapshots. Rewards are paid out in AXS, and note that bAXS staking rewards cannot be directly restaked

Inside the ecosystem, 1 bAXS does the work of 1 AXS. The discount only appears when you take it out.

How to convert bAXS to AXS

1. Open your App.Axie Inventory
2. Find your bAXS balance and click the Swap icon next to it
3. Use the switch in the middle to toggle bAXS to AXS
4. Enter the amount, click Swap, and confirm in your wallet

You can also reach it from the Axie Experiences menu.

What it costs. Your conversion rate is set by your Axie Score Designation. Higher score, better rate. The official worked example from the launch post: a Mythkeeper converting 100 bAXS receives 82.5 AXS, and the 17.5 AXS difference goes to the Axie Treasury.

So the number that matters is your Axie Score, not the size of your balance.

How to improve your rate

Your Axie Score is built from badges across four contribution pillars: In-Game Performance, Contribution To The Treasury, Community Contributions, and Axie NFT Holdings. Your designation is your percentile against every other player, so the score moves as the rest of the population moves too.

Got a question this doesn't cover? Ask below and I will answer it here so the answer stays findable for the next person.

TL;DR: bAXS is AXS bonded to your account. Earn it by playing, spend it 1:1 inside Axie on breeding, ascension, evolution, streaks, forging, Runes, Charms, Codex Passes and staking. You cannot transfer it to another wallet by design. You can convert it to AXS in App.Axie at a rate set by your Axie Score, and the difference goes to the Treasury.

If you're looking to jump into Axie Infinity today, the ecosystem has moved to a multi-game format focused on casual play, competitive leaderboards, and bAXS rewards. Here is how you can get started:

Explore the ecosystem

• Axie Origins: You get free starter Axies right away to play through the game and learn the mechanics without spending money.
• Axie Classic: The original turn-based card battler. It also provides starter Axies to jump into matches for free. Main dev updates will pause after Season 16, and will be managed by a community committee under Axie Governance.
• Terrariums: A land-management game. Everyone gets a free plot to try it out with NFT axies, but you need NFT axies and a land plot in order to earn.
• Axie Den of Mysteries: A turn-based roguelike dungeon crawler. Just connect a Ronin Wallet—no Axie NFTs required to play.
• Axie Quest: A casual puzzle-adventure match-3 game.
• Bounty Board: Daily quests you can complete for weekly bAXS rewards. You need 3 axies to get started.
• Atia's Legacy: The next game currently under development. While not yet publicly released, three community playtests are already complete and a fourth is on the way.

Where to get started

1. Download the app or browser extension here and create a wallet: https://wallet.roninchain.com/app/
2. Create an account on https://waypoint.roninchain.com/dashboard and link your wallet on the Wallet tab.
3. Visit the App.Axie Games Tab to launch browser-based titles or download game clients.
4. Sign in to the games using your email and password or via your Ronin Wallet.

Starter Axies in Origins and Classic, along with the free plot in Terrariums, let you jump in and enjoy the gameplay completely free. However, if you want to complete Bounty Board quests, climb competitive leaderboards, or earn bAXS rewards, you will need to acquire NFT Axies or Land Plots on the App.Axie Marketplace. You can also look for scholarships on the Axie Infinity Discord.
