Calling all Axie trainers! Get ready to unleash the ultimate Axie power-up because Sky Mavis just dropped a monster update that lets you evolve your Axie NFTs! That's right, your cute little axolotl friends are about to get bigger, badder, and more badass than ever before!

​

Over 250 Axie parts are ready for a makeover, starting December 14th. Imagine fiery horns sprouting from your Plant Axie, icy wings on your Bird Axie, or a super-sized tail on your Aquatic Axie – the possibilities are endless!

​

But this isn't just about aesthetics. Evolved Axies pack a punch in battle, boosting their stats and unleashing new moves. Sky Mavis co-founder Jiho Zirlin spilled the beans to Decrypt, saying, "We've been dreaming of this for five years! We're turning Axies into digital companions that grow and evolve alongside you."

Remember CryptoKitties? Axies are about to blow them out of the water (pun intended). Zirlin explains, "Axies are living, breathing creatures. They're animated, they're expressive, they're your partners in Lunacia!"

​

Here's how it works:

• Reach level 10 and ascend an Axie part to unlock evolution.

• Gather radiant spirit shells and matching mementos (think blob-like elemental buddies) to fuel the transformation.

• Prepare for a 36-hour metamorphosis – your Axie is gonna get busy!

• Impatient? Pay a 200% material fee to skip the wait and witness instant evolution glory!
   

But wait, there's more! Sky Mavis is crafting a 20-page comic and an animated video to delve into the lore behind Axie evolution. You'll follow Ema and Bing on their quest for spirit shells and discover the secrets of the Atia Temple, the sacred place where Axies ascend.

​

Oh, and did we mention this is a game-changer for NFTs? Zirlin says, "No more flooding the market with new collections. Dynamic NFTs like Axies let us introduce fresh content without diluting the value of your existing ones." With over 11.9 million Axies out there, that's a whole lot of potential for awesome evolutions!

​

And the best part? Every evolved Axie part is hand-drawn by Axie's resident artist, Masamune. That's right, these are works of art, folks!

This update isn't just about beefing up your Axies; it's about building a connected Axie universe. Zirlin says, "All Axie games will be linked through shared experience points, crafting materials, and progression. We're talking vertical progression done right, something NFTs haven't seen before!"

​

So, Axie trainers, prepare to unleash your inner Pokémon master! Get ready to collect spirit shells, craft mementos, and witness the epic evolution of your Axie companions. This is a game-changer for Axie Infinity, and for the future of NFTs!

Remember, this is just the beginning! Keep your eyes peeled for more Axie awesomeness in the future!
