Skrice Studios has shared a sneak peek on the future plans they have for Heroes of Mavia, revealing that the blockchain game developer would like to launch 6 flagship games under one ecosystem.
According to a recent announcement thread on X, the studio has a variety of future plans for Heroes of Mavia and its ecosystem. Among them is the introduction of and transition to GameLink, the release of a detailed roadmap for their web3 mobile strategy game, the launch of 6 flagship games, and the reorganization of the game’s core team.
GameLink is described as being a Digital Asset Exchange Platform (DAEP) that won’t just be restricted to one gaming ecosystem, but is instead planned to support multiple web3 gaming ecosystems and enable seamless trading of NFTs, but also in-game currencies and tokens across various blockchain games. This platform was initially revealed to be in development last month, and is poised to deliver “unprecedented opportunities for players, developers, and creators alike.” Various other web3 gaming projects will be able to join the Mavia ecosystem and allow their communities to easily trade multi-game assets using the platform’s own currency: Ruby 2.0. The team has handpicked a couple of blockchain games to join in on the launch. Over time, more projects will be considered for approval.
Next to working on GameLink, the team is also preparing a detailed roadmap for their free to play strategy game, Heroes of Mavia. Players can look forward to seeing a roadmap that is said to be carefully created “to optimize the game’s features” by focusing on improving the player experience and scalability. By completing the roadmap, the goal is to improve gameplay and retention, as well as overall player enjoyment. The plan is to also ensure seamless integration with the upcoming DAEP.
With all this being said, the integration of GameLink does mean that the studio is transitioning everything from the current Mavia Marketplace & Exchange (MPEX) over to the new platform. The transition is set to take place with the beta launch of the DAEP, and it will deliver enhanced functionality and automatic conversion of Ruby. All existing marketplace features will be transferred over and improved, so you can expect to find a wider range of assets to collect while enjoying faster transactions and better liquidity. The current Ruby 1.0 will be automatically converted to the DAEP’s new official in-game currency, Ruby 2.0, at a 10:1 conversion rate (10 Ruby 1.0 is equal to 1 Ruby 2.0). The upgraded version of this currency brings with it “greater versatility and value” as it will be integrated into this wider gaming ecosystem and thus have cross-game utility instead of just being used for NFTs from the studio’s own game.
You can expect cross-game utility for Ruby 2.0 to arrive with the official launch of GameLink DAEP, as that release brings with it 6 flagship games, among which seems to be “an optimized and balanced version” of the team’s Base-powered mobile game. The rest have not been announced at the time of writing but are said to be developed by AAA teams, with the studio expecting that the launch of this platform “will significantly boost the value of NFTs and Ruby for both current and new players, fostering a vibrant and sustainable gaming economy.”
In an effort to achieve all of these future plans, the company states in the thread that they have to reorganize the Mavia core team, with the changes said to enhance collaboration and streamline operations while helping ensure that promises to the community are met accordingly.
Following the platform’s initial announcement, the latest thread now reveals that the developers have finalized the design, logic, and flow for GameLink, with the team now committed to making sure the platform meets “the highest standards of functionality, security, and user experience.”
In the coming months, you can look forward to seeing the beta version of GameLink DAEP potentially go live on April 25th, 2025. The beta looks set to last for a couple of months, as the official release is scheduled to take place at some point in December 2025.
Before the DAEP goes live, we should be seeing a detailed roadmap for Heroes of Mavia go live in the coming weeks. Essentially, you can expect to get regular updates on the development of GameLink, the Heroes of Mavia roadmap, and the migration from the existing MPEX over to the upcoming DAEP beta.
