Legend of Ymir is top of the charts on Google Play and is celebrating with... NFTs?

WeMade's highly anticipated MMORPG, Legends of Ymir, has launched in Korea to phenomenal success, immediately topping the Google Play charts and achieving pre-release #1 status on the iOS App Store. This surge in popularity even necessitated the addition of a new server to accommodate the influx of players.

To celebrate this achievement, WeMade is offering in-game rewards for players. Further announcements regarding the integration of NFTs are also expected. While the focus on blockchain technology might seem somewhat unexpected given its recent decline in mainstream attention, WeMade remains committed to this aspect of the game.

Legends of Ymir's unique blend of Eastern MMORPG elements and a Norse-inspired world has clearly resonated with Korean gamers. This significant success raises the exciting possibility of an international release in the future. Only time will tell if this becomes a reality.

Boasting Unreal Engine graphics, polished gameplay, and impressive production values, Legends of Ymir is clearly aiming to redefine the mobile MMORPG experience. However, the continued emphasis on blockchain technology serves as a reminder of the significant investments made by developers in this area, and their ongoing efforts to leverage it. Hopefully, the integration of blockchain won't hinder the global launch many eagerly anticipate.
